I’ve said it before and Ill say it again, if a man can pretend to be a woman and have his delusion celebrated she can be Japanese. My DNA report said I’m like 3 percent Scandinavian, but if I say I’m Scandinavian that has more basis in reality than non binary or trans nonsense
Most Japanese wouldn't give a shit about this kind of PC-drama nonsense, or at least 10 years ago they wouldn't. Most would be thrilled that some American celebrity identifies with them. Also hilarious how the opinions of autistic dweebs who can't parse figurative speech are treated as news stories today.
...Allure editor Jesa Marie Calaor, who is Filipino American...wrote that Stefani’s words “seemed to hang in the air” between them.
Calaor wrote: “Like Stefani, I am not Japanese. But I am an Asian woman living in America, which comes with sobering realities during a time of heightened Asian American and Pacific Islander hate.
I have nothing against Asians, but anyone who says "I am an Asian woman living in America" is basically a certified cunt.
The Japanese are welcoming of all that embrace their culture so long as you don't take the piss and try to change it for your tastes.
You can have an African wearing a Kimono or a Middle Eastern trying to prepare a Japanese dish with chopsticks like they do and they'll be very appreciative. But this western leftist crap insisting they change stuff to their liking really pisses them off.
The white culture of thinking you can identify as a person of color simply because you like something about that culture.
Whites are damned either way. You like a foreign culture? Then you're some creepy poser or cultural colonizer. Don't like another culture? Then you're racist.
I'll get worked up about "cultural appropriation" the day it's consider as offensive for the Japanese to wear a t-shirt as it would be for a group of Americans to wear kimonos.
I’d love for someone to point out this inconsistency. Like during Floyd riots. I remember when white people couldbr speak about race but then silence was violence

Sounds good to me
I too come from Viking Stock - let's form a raiding party!
It would be an honor!
"Weeb", Gwen. The word you're looking for is "weeb".

Yep. There's no "Asian American hate" unless you live in the ghetto and most people don't even know what Pacific Islander means.
I have never heard of anyone who hates Pacific Islanders as a group.

This shit always pisses me off:

Jesus she's 53?
Consider her old group No Doubt. She apparently joined them in 1987.
The fact that just being exposed to Japanese culture in childhood makes you a Japanese is a hell of a reach.
I consider myself honorary Dutch, didn't get there until I was 45 though
