Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

no offence here but i noticed that (i'm Asian too) more and more Asians are bleaching and dying their hair, wearing colored contacts and are ditching their traditions. Sadly, some Asians don't even want to wear or feel ashamed of putting on their traditional clothes even if its on some festive season. I mean, every culture is unique.... do u have to copy what other people do or practice?

You are right. The uniqueness in every person and every culture is what makes life interesting. The problem with copying is that we need it to learn and progress in life. But we should know when to put an end to it, or at least limit it down as much as possible. As for the copying of other cultures I think advertising is to blame. Ads show a way of living most people could live without and make them crave it, even though they don楹搕 need it.

everyone wants to fit in..



everyone think they have their own style but not really..



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

It's just the merging of cultures. Plenty of Western kids are into anime, manga and the whole Otaku thing. I do agree that culture should be preserved, but I don't think cultures need to be isolated.

what they see on the telly



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

haha yeah, and it's only the stupid aspects of American Culture, like oversized sports jersies



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

Maybe they don't want to be asain!! They want to blend in!!



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

when other countries start war-mongering like america they we all have problems!!



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

Maybe its those weird looking animation cartoons....with the pink spiky hair and stuff.



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

For some reason, people want to be, dress, act American or be part of the western civilization. I think mostly for fashion, but not history.~~



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

Hmmm. Everybody copies someone a little at least. Sorry you feel bad about it though. The traditional clothes are beautiful aren't they?



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

So just because I wear levis, adidas shoes and a quicksilver polo shirt means I'm copying the americans. Stereotypical...



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

Wait, are Americans the only ones who have blond/brown hair and light eyes? Don't the Europeans, too? Not to mention the Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians and South Africans? Clothing is the same worldwide now, for the most part, and it's not exclusively American by any stretch of the imagination.



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

Im American and I have dark hair, dark eyes and I still value my traditions. I noticed when people think of "American", they think "White, Blue eyes, Blonde hair" :/



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

idk..maybe they just feel the need to stand out %26amp; be different...but then again, sometimes different isn't all great...



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

but if u wanna dress Asian, doesn't that mean u are copying Asian culture? Besides, they are American, not Chinese, or Japanese or what ever else. It is only natural to side with where you grow up.

Being American myself I must say Americans are the best people in the world always willing to lend a helping hand to the underdog but sadly our moral foundation is in a downword spiral and people around the world trying to emulate us from watching t.v.I say emulate the good don't emulate the bad, as there is alot of bad on our tv cause the good shows don't sell as well as the bad ones do Don't ask me why?



as I don't have the answer to that



Why are most (not all) trying to copy the Americans?

I think it's because of the influences...



America has been the most powerful country among others and they have this influences and I think it's depend upon their preferences



they just want to..
