Definitly chinese people are best...we will soon conquer the world militarily, economically, culturalally!
DUDE, that's so messed up. I mean it's not even about being unique, you just have to be proud of your own race and culture. I mean it's just being proud of who and what you are. Dude, I'm surrounded by Chinese people in SF. I don't feel as "unique" as I would like to, but I feel I still am unique. It's just a matter of being a unique individual, regardless of what race you are.
Yes. I am. There are more people speaking Chinese than another other languages. There are Chinese in every country big or small.
I'm shocked by the fact many posts here are pretty chauvinistic. It isn't right to think your own race is superior to others. Btw, how can you be proud of something that you are not accountable for? I think you can only be proud of things you have achieved, you have done by yourself. And not by your birth. The only thing that matters is to be a good human.
being chinese is cool apparently everyone loves our food everything is made in china (almost) only thing i dont like are the stereotypes... but thats because of other people haha
I'm very proud of being chinese too, i bet the 8 people who said "no" got bullied at school because they were chinese, hahaha
It seems as though your friend has been subjected to something called internalized racism (hating one's own race) in which she has been somehow pressured to agree with the distortions of racism. Maybe it has to do with the possibility that she feels discriminated against by others who are not the same race as her. I don't know what her situation is, but I guess it makes her feel as if she isn't able to maintain a sense of having importance or superiority just because she is Chinese. I think a lot of other people are like that too, but it ranges with each individual. I've had a friend of a friend who doesn't like being Chinese and wishes instead to be white like her peers. But personally, I feel proud to be Chinese because that's who I am, and I won't let the pressures of racial discrimination bring me down. And yes, I've been to Canada before (actually, very recently) and it feels like the Chinese community there is very close-knitted and I feel as though there's sense of cultural togetherness shared by the Chinese that doesn't really exist where I live (in San Francisco). In SF, a lot of Asians are seemingly "white-washed," and because I grew up there, I've adopted the same type of perception about my cultural identity - that is, not really caring about being Chinese. But now, I've changed a bit, partly sprouting from the influence of my HK friends studying abroad in the U.S., haha.
of course i am!!!(even though i'm only partially chinese) wth? everyone should be proud of what their race is, no matter what. if that woman doesnt want to be chinese she doesnt deserve to be chinese!! whats wrong with being chinese? its not like we're being looked down by at people!! whats so good about other races just cuz they invent technology and stuff? everyone's treated the same way no matter what!! its not like, oh, the japanese created this, they are of a more higher level and should gain more respect than us!!! we are all equal!! that woman has a problem!!

^^ I'm very proud to be chinese even though I don't live in China. We have a religion that allows us to choose our actions but teaches us to think carefully and be wise. And chinese are intelligent people especially when it comes to money, business and planning. We're pretty hard-working people. We have very unique festivals of our own, with fascinating stories behind them. Like the mooncake festival? Not very realistic but it's very good and helps to build our imagination right? It also makes us respect other animals (rabbit on the moon?). The lunar calendar animal's race was cool. I mean, Disney actually had a show about this. There's a lot about our race that is special and interesting, our origins, traditions, believes, stories, history, etc. We Chinese are unique and it's really part of who we are, in our upbringing, down to our very genes. So, yes, I am very very proud to be chinese. And I won't believe a word of anyone who tries to tell me otherwise. Their loss. =)
Yes, I am definitely proud of being Chinese. Here in New York, I have many friends who are extremely proud of being Chinese. ^_^ Even though there's so many of us, that doesn't mean we can't be proud of who we were born to become. I like being Chinese and I like my culture even though I wasn't born in China. =) Being Asian American is special to me and I'm very proud that I am Asian American.
