In that case I misinterpreted your statement for something other than what it was, my mistake.

QFT.

Geographically, Filipinos are undoubtably Asian.  Culturally, they are quite different than the other primary East Asian countries... At least that's what I always hear from the Filipinos on this site.  Anyways, yeah... there is no way Filipinos only make 2.9% of this site

   The problem is using that thought process means we need to dissect "Whites" into American, European (non-GB), Great Britain, Russia, etc. due to the large cultural differences and even that slaps together all the different European cultures.  The polls are about race, not nationality and therefore should be treated as such.

I'm Filipino too & I thought we would fall under pacific islanders.

There are so many other "islands" in South East Asia like Taiwan and Indonesia and yet, the Phillipines are the only ones secluded in being Pacific Islanders. Even as far as geography goes, they are not even part of Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia regions that makes up the Pacific Islander areas.

this..
im pretty sure the Philippines in Filipino claim themselves as asians too 

WaitWut? I think you meant "I'm pretty sure the Filipinos in the Philippines claim themselves as Asians, too."
You're damn right we're Asian!

Blame that on the lack of cultural identity over here. We've been colonized by the Spaniards, the Americans, the Dutch (or was it the British? either way, they didn't do much

), and the Japanese. And recently, we've been invaded by Chinese and Koreans, too... somewhat.

 We didn't really get a chance to develop our indigenous heritage as much as our neighboring countries. 

 But, on the other hand, we could relate, respect, and adapt to other cultures much easier than others out there.

Such ignorance.

I will say though, when most Asians get into some sort of hobby, we love to get very technical with it. 

I mean look at how Asians took the "Denim" or "Sneaker" hobby and made it much more intriguing after they got their hands wrapped around it.

Let's not lie, some Asian countries are ages ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to apparel, technology, and kicks alone.

I'm sorry, but I thought most people wanted to visit Japan just for my last few statements alone.

I feel like Laos, Cambodia and other southern Asian countries are different culturally but they are still Asian as well. The only thing I don't get is the word Asian represents a lot of cultures in itself and it describes just a general statement of who we are. No one is not recognizing that were all different in our own sense. But geographically if Filipinos think they are Pacific Islanders more so then Asian, they are wrong. That doesn’t take away the fact that they have Polynesian style then other countries like China.

that can be said about Europe though, isnt Paris the fashion capital of the world? does Silicon Valley not exist? does NY have an insane amount of diversity/tourism?
do you really think Japan/Asia is the only place getting visits off that stuff?

[kk sl1der]

Hispanic here if that matters.

The reason they break up the Asians is because although my friends Ashwin and Zhun-tsu are both "Asian"
there's clearly a difference between my Indian friend and my Chinese friend.
