I hate when people judge from music taste.

Apparently, my music taste means I’m one of those otaku who act like they’re Japanese and say “Oh my god, KAWAII DESU NE!” all the time, but can’t tell the difference between Chinese and Japanese. Oh, and apparently my music taste makes it seem like I think Tokyo is the only place in Japan and I refuse to watch anything that isn’t anime and I won’t read anything that isn’t manga. Oh, and people only eat sushi and ramen, all day every day.

You can shove that up your ass.

I know that I’m not Japanese obviously, I know a lot more Japanese than just “KAWAII DESU NE!”, I can tell the difference between Chinese and Japanese like *snaps* ~that, obviously Japan isn’t one big city, I don’t watch anime or read manga anyway and sushi and ramen are definitely not the only food in Japan.

You lose.
Same here! I have a close friend who’s been to Japan, has a Japanese husband and a cute little half-blood child. My neighbors think i befriended her just coz of her connections to Japan and so that I could get japanese stuff from them. I’m like, WTF? We’ve been friends even BEFORE she went there.
And whenever they hear the songs I listen to, or see pictures of them Asian men, they look at me like ._. and tell me to get a life. I have a life. I just happen to enjoy their music, their dramas, their animes, and their amazing talents, thankyourverymuch.
Oh, and yeah. They always ask, “You listen to those even when you don’t understand them? That’s kinda.. stupid, yknow.”
HELLO. INTERNET. ROMANIZATIONS. TRANSLATIONS.
And they always always ALWAYS say I listen to Chinese. FUCK YOU IMBECILES. Korean, Japanese and Chinese are totally different languages. They sound soooo much different.
i ranted. and i’m not sorry.
I KNOW. Ugh. People always say that I’m only friends with my Japanese friend because he’s Japanese when it totally isn’t the case at all because it doesn’t even matter to me >_>

People do the whole “You don’t even understand them” thing with me too and it’s so annoying because, like you said, the internet is the best thing ever. And even if I didn’t look at translations and romanisations and stuff, it’s not necessarily about understanding the lyrics, just understanding the song if that makes sense.

AND YES YES YES. Ugh. I seriously want to curbstomp anybody who says Korean, Japanese and Chinese are the same thing. They look and sound completely different. And if I ever mention this, they’re like “Well, same kind of thing” and it totally isn’t >_>

I don’t see how me liking Asian music is any different to someone liking rap, or pop, or rock. People are just petty and pathetic.

And then they also rant when others call their music EMO.

I guess it’s the same across the world. Closed-minded people = Major DNW.

i see so many girls and there’s so many different types of pretty… there’s like the honey, green tea pretty girls that like sitting outside and soaking up the sun…. the dark pretty with black eye make up and wild hair and piercings… the bad bitch pretty with killer highlight and striking style….. the lazy pretty girls with snapbacks and sneakers…. the bookish girls with glasses and sweaters that make your heart melt…. the soft Angel pretty girls who just look as sweet as a peach with soulful eyes…. the cute girls with chubby cheeks and messy hair and it seems like warmth emits from them… girls are so fucking beautiful

It is our duty as feminists to protect and respect women in Hijabs

Now. More. Than. Ever.

Question: if I see someone pull off a Hijab, what should I do? I know there are reasons they are worn so I want to if i should stand in between them and who did this, should i protect them from view somehow, or something else? This has been happening a lot so I feel it’s something everyone needs to know.

Good question! I cannot correctly and effectively answer, as I am a white, non-Muslim person; however, I will reblog in case any of my followers can answer.

I asked my Hijabi friend, so here’s one Hijabi’s answer:

“my opinion is, definitely try cover them or give them something to cover themselves with. And perhaps shoo off the person, without putting oneself in danger! God forbid, if that happened to me, I would like someone to come and comfort me and give me something to cover my hair with and then help me report it to the cops “

(Followers, if any of you are hijabi and would like to expand on this answer or offer alternatives, please do.)

If u see it happen to 1 of us, pls cover our head + hair with a coat or shawl or any piece of cloth, while hugging us in comfort. Please don’t get hurt by lashing out @ the perpetrators in any way, coz if they dare to do that, they’re probably too far gone in their own hatred to listen to any reason. Much love + Thank You to anyone who supports us.

raphaelsdumort raphaelsdumort

yes !! everything said here is important af. if you see someone pull off a girl’s hijab immediately cover her hair and provide comfort. don’t talk to the perpetrator but try to get the woman out of there if you can. maybe if you have a scarf on you at the time give it to her so she can wear it until she’s alone and can replace her hijab. please please protect muslim girls because we already had it hard before donald trump became president and now its gonna be worse with people going around thinking their violence and cruelty is justified

hollowedskin

for my other white ppl who might have a hard time, it’s my understanding that a hijab is like a major item of clothing, not an accessory like a hat or a scarf.
so think abt it more like if someone just ripped someone’s shirt or skirt off. u don’t want to be left there exposed or have to walk home without it.

everyone, even outside America needs to protect our Muslim sisters in these times.

as a man, what would be the best thing to do? should i turn my head and avoid looking at their hair? can i still offer a jacket or something similar?

^I’m hoping someone has an answer islamaphpbia is on the rise in my town and I want to be a good male non Muslim ally

soul-angelos

For men, yes please, we would prefer it if you avoided looking at our hair, and if we don’t have something to substitute as a hijab at that moment, anything you could lend us, a jacket, etc, would be very appreciated.

Also, since most girls avoid physical contact with men they’re not related to, please do not hug them, but rather shoo the offender away if you can, or at least escort the girl to a safe place. You can still offer words of encouragement and support. Furthermore, understand that the victim may not be very welcoming towards you because she’ll obviously be shaken, and won’t know where you are coming from. If that’s the case, please still give her something to cover herself (hijab is very important, think of it as someone ripping your shirt off) and stand some distance away until you are sure she’s in safe hands.

Thank you so much for your support, we really appreciate it, god bless all of you.
