Haha, thanks for the comment Julie! I think it’s safe to say that that’s true for not only Vietnamese woman in the US .

It’s true about the compliment “fat and white” but please don’t ever say that to a Vietnamese woman in the US, unless you want a slap in the face

Thanks Anil. I love learning about this stuff too — ideally before I do something culturally incorrect.

Fascinating – I love learning about the different cultural cues around the world. Just when you think one gesture is “normal” or standard around the world you read about places where it has no meaning.

That is soo interesting!!!!!! I just had to catch up on the last of your entries So if I smoked there they would think I’m a hooker haha & I was aware speaking English uses a lot of tounge but that’s crazy theirs would get sore!! Wow! I also found it interesting that only 1 day a year the husband & wife roles are reversed. Great writing my bro!
