Han Chinese

Nations I feel closest to as a Han Chinese:

1. Korea
2. Mongolia
3. Japan
4. Vietnam

I like Turkish culture, but I consider Turkey a Middle Eastern/Southern European country. I never realized how many Turks were actually obsessed with being seen as Mongoloid Steppe peoples until I came on this forum, even though I knew about their roots and the different Turkic groups. But they've been Islamicized for so long, and culturally and genetically are close to their neighbors.

I guess Singapore would be no. 1 in closeness as it is a Han Chinese entity, but I keep forgetting it exists. Plus, they are a bunch of sissies anyways so in actuality, I hate Singaporeans.

1) Japan
2) Indonesia/Korea/China - tie
3) Mongolia/Vietnam - tie

Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, - not much of a connection for me, but I do love Malaysian and Thai cuisine

I do feel a connection with Polynesian countries and cultures as well. And I think Turkish and Uyghurs are very cool looking so there's that too.

China
Korea/Japan - similar indirect/non-confrontational culture, some shared culinary aspects, but I don't feel a personal connection with them as in real closeness as opposed to a Chinese. I don't like much of their pop culture but I do love some of their women.
Vietnam/Mongolia
Thailand/Laos/Myanmar
Malaysia/Singapore - There may be ethnically Han communities there but I have my reservations.

I find that some aspects of Turkish culture are similar to Chinese culture, even the cuisine.

Thai, Malaysian and Indonesian cuisine are amazing.

They may be ethnically Han but nearly all of them have some kind of identity crisis. Most of them piss me the fuck off especially their faggoty accent. Some of them even have the nerve to claim that they are more Chinese than mainland Chinese. I place them in the same category as Malaysian Chinese and Indonesian Chinese.

And I forgot Taiwan but that doesn't count because Taiwan is Chinese.

In actuality, the only East Asian nation I feel a close connection to is my motherland China. I do recognize cultural similarities with the other countries, but due to fraught histories and ethnic rivalries, I do not feel an especially warm feeling towards them.

I do respect Mongolians the most out of them for their general toughness and warrior spirit though. I can't stand the pop cultures of Japan and Korea.

Most Singaporeans pride themselves on being some kind of lap dogs for the West. Also, their accent is extremely annoying. Most seem like Momma's boys, and no wonder, raised in that sterile, boring island state, where their moms are probably screaming to high heavens as soon as they get some dirt on their shoes. They are also pretty fucking soulless. So yeah, fuck Singapore.

I guess East Asians tend to look down on dark skinned people. Your family is not especially dark skinned though.

I personally do not have a problem with dark skinned people, but that's me as an individual.

I don't think you would do well with East Asian women as you do not have a high paying job and you are overweight. I already told you to work on those things.
