 In a lot of ways you're responsible for like shaping their brain not a hundred percent, but like maybe fifty percent This Asian TikToker suspects that Princess Peach from Mario is the reason why her sons prefer blonde women over Asian women And this is going viral. Let's run the clip. I have mixed kids half Asian half is European Persian and my boys were teasing each other and they were like, oh who you gonna marry who you gonna marry and they both said We want to marry someone with blonde hair I was like why blonde hair and they said because they're prettier people with blonde hairs are prettier I said well, what about someone who looks? Chinese Korean Asian Dark features dark hair No, they said they're not that pretty blonde hair is better than I joked with them I said but daddy married a Chinese person me and And I said daddy thinks I'm pretty yeah, but all dads think their Wives are pretty but to us. You're not I can see that I'm not hurt not not offended at all But I'm just wondering where they get this thing about blonde hair being better mind you we just watched Super Mario and Peach the princess is Blonde don't know if that has anything to do with it But I really definitely think that there should be more shows that represent dark hair Women dark hair boys Asian features Andrew long story short this silly short and knock who is video from Alice Chan Andrew Somehow struck a nerve with the internet and people took extreme positions Supporting or going against her. Yeah, I led to a whole discussion about interracial dating They imbalance between Asian men and women and racism and discrimination anyways guys You know what we're gonna go through the comments section We'll give you our takeaways at the end Please hit that like button check out other episodes of the hot-pot boys as we analyze this Yeah, like we said from silly to serious Andrew Why do you think these silly videos strike a nerve in like all the comments section go serious? Because it's a sensitive topic for a lot of people especially on the internet But hopefully let's try to have a productive conversation here because I think that's a lot of what is Lacking here. There's a lot of comments, but not a lot of convos Let's go first one. I would say this was the most Common sentiment that I saw on the entire internet through thousands of comments Asian American mom supports princess peach So Asian American mom suspects that princess peach letter sons believe that blondes are prettier than Asian women And now it's revealed that she married a European guy herself the irony of it all now It doesn't matter that her husband's not blonde and he's like a euro Persian who probably has darker hair Maybe looks like maybe some olive skin right cuz that's what she tried to justify herself as in her response video Right, I would say it does matter a little bit. Maybe but maybe and not a lot I don't know. I mean, it's true that when most people think of a white person They're thinking of like a Scandinavian Anglo-Saxon look, but it is true You know, I guess Persians look more like Greek Italian Sicilian white Latino white Arab type look what? Jake Gyllenhaal Kardashian what is Rob Kardashian? Yeah, it's tough to say somebody said, oh my gosh, can a dude just have a preference I like fat chicks. It's just my thing man Some people like physical attributes. Should we shame everybody? This was kind of like a pro male comment like from the Manish fear Which was almost taking the discussion in a whole nother direction You know, I'm not gonna shame her sons for having a preference But one thing I will shame them for is talking to their mom this way What kind of kid and how old are they to look at their mom and be like no mom We don't find you pretty. We like blonde girls blonde All husbands think their wives are pretty but mom we don't think you're pretty hey golly man What kind of kids are you raising? Well you some you're a comedian woman raising some real snarky-ass kids I'll tell you that somebody said. Oh, yeah, so her sons are just like their mom then. I'm not in Asians That was a crazy burn. I'll say this I saw Asian men and Asian women say say this comment But let's be honest, of course There was a higher proportion of Asian men who are vocalizing this Let's just say Asian men care about this a little bit. Oh, there was another comment saying if she had half person Half Chinese daughters and they were not into Asian men. She wouldn't even think twice about it In fact, she might even encourage it But she's just mad because she thought Asian women were really desirable in the world Which allowed her to get a Persian husband, but now her Persian sons don't like her, you know To row reverse if the dad was Asian and the mom was non-Asian and then the dad as an Asian guy I had to hop a daughter's and they told me they weren't attracted to Asian men. I would feel a little offended Right, but I'd have to wonder why what led them to that because I am their image. I'm the first image of a man I should be the closest image to a man that they're exposed to so that's why a lot of children with White dads and Asian moms usually I would say more than 50% of the time they lean towards the the non Yeah, no, it's true guys I mean some people are gonna be like say this and that about the comment But I would say statistically people go with the dad's culture even though the mom raises you the dad sort of sets the Ultimately again guys like it I think it's whatever is the reverse like if you have sons and the mom's gonna feel offended because she's a woman and The sons are into women, but then she they don't find the Asian features attractive anyways anyway It gets super nuanced and I think that that's why these comment sections had like crazy threads of like essays and people going back and forth Whatever somebody said isn't princess peach count as Japanese anyways think about issues made by Nintendo and somebody else said But yeah Mario's a plumber from NYC who's Italian who says it's me a Mario But the creators are Japanese what does he count as Japanese? No, dude? I don't know what type of Mario game they were playing they were probably playing and saw the adults, you know Hentai version on the on the incognito window. I'm just saying guys I've never seen princess peach really sexualized in the Mario game She is in a full dress like a nun Like a like a like a like a birthday So she needs to check her kids iPhones chrome history because they might be looking up some J. A. V. With some anime Luigi and Mario Even Japanese created a hello kitty hello kitty is actually a British kitten like a British girl living a lifestyle So it's not just because Japanese created doesn't mean anything. Somebody said oh, oh, we're in the spicy section now Andrew All Asian guy all Asian girls love white guys. I hardly see any of them marry even marry their own race This was from a white guy another white guy said hey, I'm another white guy Let's be clear here East Asian women like white guys in Southeast Asian women like black or Spanish guys Yeah watch there's another comment that says something like hey I'm another white guy and actually Asian women. They love Asian guys way more. It's better Obviously, these are all stereotypes I would say this guys and we're in a whole another topic now But I got to address where the comments section went right because we're just all addressing Asian topics right now It really matters where you grow up, right? Like doesn't it matter the dominant culture and the narrative who was the hot guy who's the hot girl Who was the cool guy who's the cool girl who in the neighborhood you grew up in who showed you affection? Who was the cutest best-looking type of person who showed you any sort of Affection or was nice to you. That's also gonna matter. I know a lot of Asian guys who liked blonde girls growing up as well No, I mean even me I mean some of the most I guess like vivacious and flirty girls growing up in junior high Were the cute blonde girls and they were flirty with everybody But of course I couldn't help but have some feelings good because Even Alicia Silverstone who I said wouldn't have wasn't that hot but like Tiffany amber thesis into anyway I think we grew up in South Seattle and I saw so many different types of people growing up there I think it's a little bit different than a lot of Asians in her They I think a lot of upper middle-class Asians grow up in very white contexts whether in Canada or America But you know where we grew up it was different like even the white guys They kind of have the Jack Harlow M&M thing going on right like a lot of tech fleece Jordans Whatever, I mean we also have the rocker goth punk rock Abercrombie moonshine spirit That's country type I would say the only type of white person that we didn't really grow up around was the vineyard vines Oh, yeah, you know private equity hedge fund types Anyway, somebody said no, I think that most Asians stick to their own So this kind of goes back to another interracial argument Andrew Some people are saying that Asian girls like white guys some of them are saying they like that guy and some of them are Saying no all the Asians they just marry other Asians. Yeah I mean I think without statistics and like more specific statistics man There's always gonna be a disagreement and the feelings are gonna be separate some Asian guys They're like, oh, it's great for Asian guys right now And then some Asian guys like no even in Asia they still abide by the Western beauty standards But if you're like only trying to date expat chicks and like certain scenes like Shanghai or Hong Kong Maybe that is true, but then obviously they're not you're not talking about the the Kowloon side Right, I mean I think it just matters so much you you're looking at recently arrived immigrants first second marriage types I mean people who grow up that are a second-gen Asians growing up in enclaves versus non enclaves I'm pretty sure those sub statistics are all incredibly variable somebody said uh, hey guys I live in East Asia and this white worshiping goes deep deep deep in the culture We're talking about the modeling industry the products the society in general we worship white beauty standards I'm living in Asia right now by the way I Only half agree because I say like there is a lot of like even the Korean look and we talked about this in a Past video just because they like fair milky Hokkaido creamy skin. It doesn't mean they want to look European per se You know, there's not like the SK SK 2000 has like a British tone Yeah I mean I know that there's certain like features that are more prominent amongst Asians that like generally you wouldn't have too many models with Like I guess a super flat face, but but I would not say that all models in Asia are meant to look white No, I would disagree with that. Yeah, I do think that Asia does Buy into it certain parts a lot more than others Hong Kong Shanghai to be honest um, maybe somebody said How come she didn't marry a Chinese guy then if she says she loves him so much in a rebuttal. Yeah, you know I don't like that's what I don't like about women or anybody men to her like. Oh, no, like what do you man? I love my first but I like, you know, I have a black friend. I love this or either Asian girl No, I had a lot of people come on come on Martin Come on, it almost sound like she was just my first boyfriend when I was 11 years old was Chinese and I'm like Yes, I will just say this listen if you want to have a conversation you want to make some jokes on the internet about race You better be ready for this type of conversation in your comment section This is why our videos are like 10 plus minutes long because I understand in a 30 second bit It might not come out as thoughtful, right? You have to account for the nuance these things are very layered I mean, I would say one of the things that I've noticed more recently is like I think a lot of women even that are quote-unquote whitewashed our open date to dating a Asian guy if it's like a top 1% Model Daniel Woo dude. Yeah, I mean, I think I mean does that mean that you like something if you're like Hey, I don't really like trucks But if you give me the best fully loaded 145,000 Ford F-150, I'll give it a shot. Yeah, that's like saying, you know, I'll eat for Only if it's the absolute best wagyu rib Simmered for 50 hours for own. I'm like, no, you don't really love for at that point You know, I think at the end of the day that's kind of it's kind of patronizing. I guess right like I'll take the top 1% Yeah, I'll take a top a 75 percentile guy from this group Anyway, somebody said, um, you know, their love for blondes actually just comes from the Persian side I know a lot of Persians and they just really think that blondes and whites are prettier So it's not even from the Asian side is from the Persian side. Yeah, I mean also there's maybe these boys also like Blonde Eastern European women, maybe they like blonde Latinas Maybe they like Asian girls who dye their hair blonde and they're like, yeah, mom I saw some like Asian girl ABG's who like blonde bleach their hair. I thought that was really hot I like blonde blonde. No, they could be in the ABG's. They just haven't seen them yet because they're like eight Somebody said, uh, I think it's just because blondes are globally considered to be very pretty fun Livacious and not a stern tiger mom like you ma'am. Yeah now there's another angle to it where a lot of guys are going to like the type of Woman that is not like their mom because their mom might be naggy or bossy or how ever they view their mother, right? Or maybe they just view their mother like a motherly figure and this is like the point where they're like, no Asian girls all remind me of you mom now is that I think they have a chance to grow out of it Obviously growing up in New York City. They're gonna be exposed to a lot of different cultures of people. So Yeah, I don't know but definitely from my experience, man I don't know what it is about being cute and blonde but those girls growing up They definitely lived up to the vibe. They're very liveacious, especially around libations I don't know blonde girls are trained to be like social with people. I'll just say that. All right, you guys Let's get into our major takeaways I'm gonna have two takeaways Andrew one is to address Alice Chan if she was serious because I'm not sure if she was serious Okay, literally you are responsible for what your kids consume and watch and like ingest and process and a lot of ways You're responsible for like shaping their brain not a hundred percent But like maybe fifty percent and another piece of advice for Alice Chan is if she was being silly In America racial issues are really serious, man These are not just some artificially pumped up rotisserie chickens from Costco with the salt saline solution It's serious here for real and maybe in Canada or whatever neighborhood you're from or how you grew up Racial issues were viewed as more like a big lighter or just some mixology You know some fires breath on the you know how people like the cocktails in America I would say playing with races more like a Molotov cocktail or a flamethrower like they're both fire But they're completely different types of fire like you got to be careful what the flamethrower not so much with a big lighter Well said well said I agree with what you said I will say this and when you want to make jokes about race Just know that the internet will look back into your history and they will make a lot of assumptions about who you are based off What you've said so just so you know it's kind of like if you have a driving instructor Who's teaching you how to drive safely and then you find out they've been in like two crashes. You're gonna be like Yo, why are you an instructor like what way to tell me? I'm not saying you don't know and you can't teach me about safety in a car But I just need to know that you can drive safely. Anyways guys. That's kind of how the internet works But I will say this all the vitriol or whatever that caused her to turn off her comment section That's not right either now because people are basically letting a larger issue Fester from like a trillion other things that they feel or they've seen or whatever they're reacting to and then they're unleashing it on somebody who really doesn't deserve it Like it's almost like the person who like pulls the straw out of the dam and then the whole dam hits them You know with all the deluge of water. It's not fair to that person But that's the nature of tiktok from what I've seen I mean, she did leave up the tiktok So I mean, you know, maybe she still wants people to view it and I think she can take the heat She seems old and mature enough that she she's gonna be able to handle it Obviously, she's an up-and-coming comedian. So, you know sometimes exposure even regardless of this energy or that energy is still I watched her videos afterwards. Anyways guys, let me know in the comments down below what you think from silly to serious We're covering it all hot pop boys. Let us know in the comments down below what you think about this whole thing until next time We out peace
