[quote=Anonymous] I'm half Caucasian, half Asian and grew up in lily white parts of Europe. While I have been surprised at the vitriol aimed at Asians as a group on DCUM, I have never felt targeted in real life, in our neighborhood near downtown Bethesda. I know a lot of educated and wealthy international families (Japanese and Korean among them) living there who do not fit any stereotype. We socialize with everyone, and my good friends come from all over the world. What I have noticed, however, is that I meet a great many stereotypically driven and academically aggressive Asian families in suburbs further away, say Germantown. I suspect the reason is socio-economical. For some reason, these people are mostly Chinese, but my experience does not constitute a valid statistical sample. [/quote]
