I was told something i have never heard about before. That asians had a low drinking capacity. I was astounded because i know i heard stuff like asians are bad drivers because of their eyes and they aren't good at sports because they are pretty much the opposite of a stereotypical black man, but are they bad at holding their liquor?

Some Asians have a gene that causes them to synthesize less alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver. At least, this was claimed, IDK if it was ever conclusively proven.

Not all Asians are afflicted by this, and I know quite a few who can outdrink many many people. Especially considering how Asian spirits (sake, soju, and especially baijiu) have a much higher alcohol content than other drinks.

continued tags: small, pale, gosu, chosu, chobo, A+, black hair syndrome, Muta micro

That sounds like bullshit to me, could it because most asians are small in stature and it is simply their body mass that makes the difference? Yes.

according to some documentaries I have watched, maybe Asians are just more sensitive to alcohol lol (if they are bad at holding their liquor) which might be a good thing because they will have lower chances of getting ruining their liver.

I actually read a book where the guy said that stereotypical asian excellence at math is due to the tedious calculation/care required for rice farming, whereas western crops like corn are relatively easy to grow.

Just because you have Asian glow doesn't mean you can't guzzle down like 10 beers.

I hear Asians are people indigenous to the continent of Asia.

I also hear that Asians will typically give birth to more Asians, and that all Asians who are born will eventually die.

Asians eating rice is actually pretty situational and hypocritical tbh.

I know this applies to Japanese people, not sure about koreans/chinese/vietnam etc.
