Refered to all people of Asian origin by people who are too ignorant to notice the OBVIOUS facial difference and cultures of the different races of Asia.

Anyone from China or Taiwan. Just because someone is Asian doesn't mean that they're Chinese. Many idiotic people firmly believe that all Chinese people are really smart nerds with small eyes that are quiet, boring, and antisocial. These people are racist and need to get a life. Chinese is just a race and does not define the personality.
She's Chinese, but she has big eyes and isn't quiet at all.

Kevjumba is Chinese.

Anyone from the People's Republic of China.
Great food, culture, and history.

Common stereotypes:
-Extremely good at math and science
-Straight A students
-Hardworking
-Martial arts experts
-Plays violin, flute, or piano very well
-Great family values

Of course, most of those do tend to be true.
