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.

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.

Are you kidding me?

Of course. Some Asians are just genetically predisposed to not be able to drink very much. Others are normal. You can wikipedia it.

some asians lack some enzyme in a higher frequency than other races which makes alcohol very difficult to take
but most asians are average, and my family can drink a lot (we are from fuzhou)

Actually, statistically a lot of Asians tend to have less apocrine sweat glands than other races.

Because of this, a lot of people in Asia can sweat up a storm and give off no body odor whatsoever :O

From what i know
Asians are good at math because we count faster.

Asians use
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
for eleven we say ten one.
twelve is ten two
twenty is two ten's

the theory is that asian kids can pick up the math quicker without having to learn the extra 9 numbers and each denomination of ten.

the reason why asians have slanty eyes is because they lack some kind of amino acid/lipid or something in their diets; asian's usual staple food, rice, has none of this nutrient/thing whatsoever. This missing nutrient/thing is necessary in the development of skin and fat tissue around the eye, and the lack of it causes slanted eyes.

at least, thats what some internet article said

but as you can see, younger generations of asians have less slanty eyes as their diets have diversified in modern times

Genetically, yes. Asians are bad at holding liqour, the only race worse is North American indians. You just dont have the same tolerance because you haven't been drinking as heavily for as many years. Whites are predisposed to have the most tolerance.

Remember Children, always bet on whitey in a drinking game. ;]

Asians are pretty consistent genetically in this regard, I'd spose some in western asia or what not may be an exception, but otherwise no. On the *genetic* level those who are from China etc, should suck at holding their liquour. Obviously brain chemistry, metabolism, and body size factors in. Some people get drunk but dont even have overt physical signs. Any asian you have met that [without building a natural tolerance on their own] can hold their liqiour still lacks the genes to absorb it as efficiently as Whites, etc, just that other aspects of their physicality may push it in the other direction.

I"m asian and i'm good at math because of my parents. Forcing me to memorize the multiplication table up to 9 at around 2nd grade and teaching me how to do algebra in 3rd grade. Other than that, nothing, but having this knowledge and as well as the study habits of asian parents (they had to work hard enough to do well in a country where they barely knew the language when they came in), can really help you down the line in more advanced math.

From what i know
Asians are good at math because we count faster.

Asians use
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
for eleven we say ten one.
twelve is ten two
twenty is two ten's

the theory is that asian kids can pick up the math quicker without having to learn the extra 9 numbers and each denomination of ten.



In the context of this thread I cant tell if you are being sarcastic or not.

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.



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


My family is like this, and we're Taiwanese (Han Chinese ethnicity like most of mainland China). I don't notice anything other than the flush though.

it really depends. i know a few koreans that can tank drinks like crazy (two whole soju's themselves ez) and i know chinese people (especially girls) that can only drink a beer or two and they're done.

Just another example of asian efficiency.

I mean, besides dick-waving contests (which asians would lose both literally and figuratively) about how much you can drink, it just means you get to spend less on your favorite drinks.

The only exception is (Z)EffOrt. I was drinking with that guy the other day and he drank like four times as much as me. I was totally about to collapse, but he was totally fine, barely even tipsy, laughing something like "Ahahaha, your human liquor is no match for my superior genetics". What's up with that?

Play all the black keys in order left to right (or right to left). See what it sounds like.

Even better, just write the notes out, figure out the key, then map the mode as if it's minor. See what notes those keys are.

Unfortunately the 'having a better time before anyone else' part doesn't really apply. Those with flush tend to feel like crap even before alcohol starts to relax your brain. The headache/accelerated pulse/itchiness is not very confortable and tend to have the opposite effect to relaxation. It is not exactly not able to take alcohol but rather body doesn't really take it well. Mind is always sober, and will remain so unless I persist to make myself feel worse by kept up he consumption, which never happens because generally very unpleasant.

this is true

Generally, a chinese person lacks the coding for the production of large amounts of alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver. This is a genetic disorder (if drinking can be considered a disorder)

Ironically, the chinese compensates the less drinking by spiking their drinks with higher alcohol content (as to not feel as bad drinking less)

Chinese white wine is approximately 53 - 60% alcohol

Edit: this causes the body to combat the alcohol levels with another mechanism, but causes extreme redness in the face (explains why chinese people flush faster)

Tolerance builds as you drink more, and iirc both korea and japan have a serious drinking culture. As in, go out to the bar after work each day and drink with your boss/coworkers thing.

I took a trip to 2chan to ask about this asian flush phenomenon, but my thread was quickly derailed into a discussion about whether the PS3 or Xbox 360 was more in the clutches of the evil Korean menace somehow.

The vast majority of posters agreed that Microsoft was deeper in the pockets of Korea, assigning 47 kp (Korean (or 'Kimchi' Points) to Microsoft's Xbox 360, and only 5 kp to Sony's PS3.

[image loading]


However, one poster objected to this and insisted that Sony was indeed more deeply part of the Seoul conspiracy than Microsoft by cleverly substituting the o in 'Sony' with this Korean flag:

[image loading]


Conclusions of my study:

- Don't ask 2chan posters about asian glow on the video games forum section of the site.
- Korea has Microsoft in their pockets and is plotting the downfall of Japanese culture with their video game console.
- Threads get deleted pretty quickly there if you admit that you used a proxy to post the thread.

Lol Asian people. All they do is work their asses off 24/7. They take things overboard, but what can you do about it but lol? They're good because they put time and effort in.

If white people put in the same amount of effort that Asians do at gaming, they'd be hella good too.

Didnt the statistics say that South Koreans and Swedes are among the heaviest drinkers? I mean, the common stereotype would say that Russians drink the most, but the statistiscs showed that Korea was 1st and Sweden 2nd.

Hmm, the wiki statistics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_alcohol_consumption seem to contradict this. Weird I remember an article which stated the above facts - maybe the data was cooked. Anyway pretty weird stats - Uganda first place? Germany so high?

Those numbers are super shaky. Given the nature of what they're measuring (I believe it was done for health insurance estimates), their data sources are going to be particularly unreliable.

I have a hard time believing that Turkey and Morocco are that low. Hell, same for Pakistan.

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.

No? It's genetic makeup that has resulted from thousands of years of natural selection. It's the same case for lactose intolerance among asians vs. Europeans.

As for asians and math...

lol you're white. I'm 6 inches (which is average for white as well). But yes, I have seen those Japanese porn and the actors in there are very small. They don't use above average actors like the US porn industry does and they don't shave their pubes

It doesn't apply to this discussion. That list's data considers only consumption per capita in a year among 15 years of age or older individuals. A sample of one asian that drinks 10 L/month of beverage A is considered the same as a sample of 10 irish each drinking 1 L/month of the same beverage. Statistics could mean nothing, you know.

This is false, besides the fact that Im only 2 years underage. My face starts getting red after maybe a can of regular Dry Asahi.

http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/119327063/abstract?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0

Here are some papers that might help your understanding of what's going on.

Basically, if you're asian, there is a better than average (for other ethnic groups) chance that you are not as good at holding your alcohol. This is due in part to evolutionary differences between people in different parts of the world; Europeans purified their water through fermentation, and therefore had a use for the alcohol dehydrogenase gene. Asians, on the other hand, generally boiled their water to sanitize it rather than fermentation. This is one of many possible reasons for the "asian flush".

Russia, at this point in history, is entirely in Asia. I hereby extend the definition of "Asian" to boundaries never before seen (in this thread)! Hereafter, Russians are Asians!

It's overhyped. At half the strength of vodka you'd expect it to have half the strangth of taste, but most non-Koreans report they prefer vodka.

Soju is sweet (Or maybe it's because I drink the plum one). Not as strong at the start, you won't get the sort of burning sensation of baiju or vodka. It is however stronger than Sake which is piss weak.

Good to drink cold though. I would never touch baiju or sake cold.

Yep, Vodka taste alot better.
But drinking soju when having Korean BBQ with some friends in a cozy restaurant in winter is superb. I love the way Koreans give respect to older when they pour them the drinks.
And younger Koreans have to turn their head not to face the older while they emty their cup, very strange, but cute

It's overhyped. At half the strength of vodka you'd expect it to have half the strangth of taste, but most non-Koreans report they prefer vodka.

Yep, Vodka taste alot better.
But drinking soju when having Korean BBQ with some friends in a cozy restaurant in winter is superb. I love the way Koreans give respect to older when they pour them the drinks.
And younger Koreans have to turn their head not to face the older while they emty their cup, very strange, but cute

Really? I actually think that entire part of the culture is stupid.


theres nothing smart/stupid about that, its just custom.

It is a custom. It is stupid.

It just depends on ur body.

And as far as sports i believe asians aren't as talented naturally. However they can push their bodies many times farther than everyone else.

To some extend Chill is right, sometime the respect elder things is stupid if people take it too seriously.
In my school, there are some Koreans guys that FORCE those younger than him to do his homeworks, or even take exams for them. And I think its way out of hand. But that just some jackass , I dont think they can represent the Koreans.
Anyway, in Asian culture, respecting elder has always been a very important part. But it goes to utmost at Korean and Japanese culture I think.
Despite the fact that this custom is originated from Confucius teaching in China. In China nowadays, it is fading away, Chinese is growing colder and colder with each other, and that is sad.

Why is that sad? It's a good thing. It's ironic that you need to comply with a set of rigid rules to love your parents.

I think you might got your impression from the fact that Koreans and Japanese bow to each other.
Chinese do not bow easily, we only use this custom to honor someone REALLY worthy of respect or to the dearly departed.

Body mass is way way overrated. It's all about tolerance build through habituation. Body mass is obviously a factor but a big guy that isn't used to drink will generally get trashed sooner than a skinny guy who drinks regularly.

It really is overrated. I find it odd that people still believe that the bigger you are, the better you can handle alcohol.

do you really believe that small people cant get drunk faster? Obviously there are tolerances for EVERYONE. Smaller people can get fucking hammered off several shots where as a bigger person will tend to need more. Obviously its not a hard rule but if everyone is an experienced or inexperienced drinker ill say its pretty much gold. Comparing some little guy who drinks every day to a huge fat guy who drinks once a year will obviously lead to the huge fat guy getting drunk faster most of the time.


Ive met plenty a 120lb girl who claimed she could drink a lot on her own accord and they usually end up puking or blacking out faster than the 200lb males.

To the people who don't believe that size affects your alcohol tolerance, do you also believe that the Earth is flat? It's pretty simple logic... If you take a 200lbs dude who drinks 5x a week and put him up against a 150lbs dude who drinks the same and give them both a bottle of the same booze, the bigger dude's holding his own better 99 out of 100 times.

I'm saying that it's not a say-all-end-all when bringing up weight.

The post that I quoted stated the exact same thing as you...

EDIT: Eh reading back at what it said I realized it seemed that way

I used to think I just had low tolerance, but I've gradually come to realize that in fact everyone in my family (parents, siblings, myself) has this ALDH2-deficiency. It was really weird though..coming to the realization that all those times I thought I was experiencing the effects of alcohol I was actually experiencing the side effects of this deficiency. I've been a social drinker for a few years now, and despite my efforts to increase my tolerance, whenever I drink I always get bad headaches, an increased pulse, feel out of breath, get extremely drowsy...even though I'm not drunk and can think and behave normally. I thought feeling this way was normal lol, and that drinking was essentially an unpleasant past time and that I just had to man up and learn to ignore the painful headaches and extreme fatigue. But I guess to many the effects of drinking are not so unpleasant?!!

Side story: This whole deficiency thing can be quite inconvenient though. An example- a month or two ago I went with a friend to a Party Rock concert. There were 5 acts or so, and after about the 3rd act in my friend demanded that I get pumped up and drunk with her. So she ordered shots. LMFAO was the biggest and final act, but by the time they got on, I could barely stand up. Not because I was drunk, but because I was suddenly overwhelmed with extreme drowsiness haha. So when LMFAO took the stage and started performing, I was hanging onto the rail fucking struggling not to FALL ASLEEP. Picture this as when you're in class and trying not to dose off during a lecture, but instead at a crowded club with crazy lights and the smell of weed in the air and a mad concert happening on stage. I thought something like this would be impossible. haha FML.

EDIT: Asians are ninjas. Ninjas are awesome. Therefore asians are awesome.

I think it completely depends, sure body mass matters, but there are probably a lot of factors.
I'm 100% chinese and I had a drinking contest against my friend who is half japanese, half english. She's 5' and I'm like 5'6" or 5'7" and 64kg, she's too light to give blood. I puked first, twice, so it does seem to vary just person to person.

Just another example of asian efficiency.

I mean, besides dick-waving contests (which asians would lose both literally and figuratively) about how much you can drink, it just means you get to spend less on your favorite drinks.

The only exception is (Z)EffOrt. I was drinking with that guy the other day and he drank like four times as much as me. I was totally about to collapse, but he was totally fine, barely even tipsy, laughing something like "Ahahaha, your human liquor is no match for my superior genetics". What's up with that?


lol! I laughed far too much at that.
