Most of you probably know I'm Chinese but if you didn't now you know. I know that Ruennsheng and Au is asian. Is Atomickaiju Japanese? I've seen an avatar of another member who is asian but forgot the name. Who else is asian?

Well, it could. Half-black counts as black.

My uncle is married to a Filipino woman. I may not be Asian myself, but I do have some Asian relatives.

Speaking of the Philippines, I believe the member theimperiousdork is Filipino.

I'm not asian, but my little brother is and I have fooled people into thinking I am half Spanish half Chinese because I look slightly Asian for some reason and of course my Chinese brother has dark skin and could be thought of as half spanish. Plus, I speak Mandarin.

I'm Chinese. At least 50%, possibly 100%. My mom was adopted and we don't know her bio-parents. She's most likely Chinese, could be Mongolian, Japanese or Korean. Autism run in my family from my dad's side so to me it's a 100% Chinese thing.

I wish there were more female Asian Aspie WP members, particularly if they were using their real photo as their avatar.

So to answer your question.

Not enough :wink:
