Ah fsho. Recently I've been going like once a year, past three years during winter break. I think going during the summer is most fun but the weather :x

Nah it's not genetics, it's culture. Taiwan has similar beauty standards as the US so the way Taiwanese girls apply make up and dress makes them more attractive.
Mainlanders are obsessed with looking as white/pale as possible which is gross to me.

only been to hk a handful of times, would travel to mainland china twice a year, and though I haven't been to Taiwan I have worked with quite a few taiwanese both men & women...can't say either way culture vs. genetics, but I do think beauty standards are really different mainland china vs. hk vs. taiwan...somewhat as an aside, I would add that in my experience taiwanese generally seem to have a bad opinion of mainland china/chinese, by appearance alone I could not really differentiate and would be subject to some (playful) indignation if i mistook a taiwanese person for chinese; but in conversation it was a bit easier because taiwanese generally spoke much better english.

im moving to shanghai in august. i loved HK and taipei but excited that the distance to japan and korea are relatively short flights. the consensus about beijing is all the same with everyone i talk to that has lived and worked there. the smog and haze is just too much to bare.

#1 is the most spot-on. I'm none of the above and often get mistaken as Filipino.
And Japanese folks I've seen/met in America have great style that may be a bit off-kilter or "weird".

Has anyone here had issues with their identity like they felt they weren't American enough and/or not Asian enough? Like you're stuck in the middle. How did you overcome it or find a way to accept it?
I'm guessing this question is more for those who were born/raised in America, but I guess it does affect immigrants as well. And when I say Asian, I'm referring to whatever E or SE Asian country you or your family is from.
Just wanted to hear some thoughts on the topic. Thanks.
