White-born man claims he's 'transracial,' identifies as Filipino

[zhaoyun]

The Japanese are treated like light-skinned mixed people, though they are seen as a business oriented upper-middle class ethnic group. The downside is because of their cultural heritage and demographic size, a lot of people (usually White Brazilians) feel free to make demeaning and distasteful jokes against Japanese people or Asians in general. However, because the Japanese tend to be very united and run family-businesses, they have managed to "protect" themselves as a people there.

Actually FME all types of Latinos from White to Amerindian to Black seem to think it's ok to make fun of Asians. Of course, it's not something I particularly care about as they usually don't have any power over Asians, but it's something I've noticed.

I'd say it's mostly Whites, at least in Brazil. Blacks and Pardos might feel like it's wrong making fun of others because they are constantly made fun of themselves. Whites feel too comfortable in that country to say whatever they want. But perhaps it might be a bit different in other Latin American countries.

If he think he has Filipino's soul, he should be respected like that.

Why is this newsworthy?

"Whenever I'm around the music, around the food, I feel like I'm in my own skin," he said. "I'd watch the history channel sometimes for hours you know whenever it came to that and you know nothing else intrigues me more but things about Filipino culture." Although Ja Du can't change the way he presents outwardly, he's embraced all aspects of his identity as it relates to the way he lives his life. He can often be found driving around his native Tampa, Fla., in a purple Tuk Tuk, a three-wheeled vehicle often used as public transportation in the Philippines.

So he drives a tuk tuk that's very nice. The tuk tuk is Sri Lankan, Thai, or even Egyptian while the tricycle, so named as it is often a sidecar on a motorcycle, is a bit different & more typical of Philippines. So he likes the food isn't it ironic that millions of Americans like chinese food thus, in his limited mind, they've got to be transracial Chinese. And he likes the music but is that folk/traditional music or music emulating/taken from European/western society seeing as I know many Filipinos and a number enjoy non-Asatic/Philippines music.

Ultimately, as said, he's a "glitch". It is highly unlikely he can speak the language, it is rather unlikely he knows anything about the culture, beliefs, religion, etc. beyond whatever rubbish he watches on television, and I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the Philippines he'd last a meager couple of months.


The irony is, is I believe he said somewhere he doesn't mean any insult. He doesn't mean to appropriate their culture (don't see why he says that as he appears to know very little to nothing about it). Either way he should go ask a Filipino, one straight off the boat from the Philipines, what they think of their newfound "brother [or sister]".

Come to think of it, the tuk tuk is Thai. So basically this guy lives in Florida and he drives a Thai vehicle and thinks he's Filipino? What a complete fucktard.

his a transsexual from florida ,that don't speak Filipino language. I don't think he have Filipino friends... he basically just watch a lot of T.V.. but his not the only .. average Filipino would probably think he is unsual or strange.. but if he is interest most of Filipinos would probably try to help him get learn. after he passes.. his in the circle. .

it's called tuk tuk as well in Philippines. the mainstream is now open to tolerance of gays.. it's also illegal to discriminate against gays..

however he would probably not welcome by hardcore catholics and attacked by muslims extremist from the south..

I don't know if he will change his mind, once he finds out the Catholics views of trans sexual.

A glitch in the matrix, lol...

What is this world coming to?

It's either a genetically modified food, or a genetic change itself/gene mutation..that guy most likely has an OFW (Off Filipino Dillema).. I really hope that one day the scientists will invent&produce some OWD-abuse vaccine very soon, some ppl on TheApricity need it as well
