Asian Fishing 

When someone who is not Asian, tries to look like someone of Asian descent.
This usually occurs when someone takes the sexualized and fetishized aspects of Asian people and uses it as an "aesthetic" or for their own advantage. Asian fishing perpetuates stereotypes and completely disregards the oppression Asians have faced.
1st person: Hey, are you Asian?
2nd person: No, it's just makeup. But I'm obsessed with Asian culture.
2nd Person: Oh. I thought you were Asian. (their brain: what ...wtf... why they were just Asian fishing)

Asian Fishing 

An act of trying to look like you are of Asian descent. Most usually East Asian.

This is very offensive towards Asian people because all these years of them (Asians) have been made fun of for the shape of their eyes or the way they look that it has now become a “trend” mostly started by white people because white people usually want to look like any other race but their wh*te selves.

"we're ging Asian fishing, wanna come?"

Asian Fishing 

The act of making yourself appear asian, either using makeup or other face-changing mediums. Often mistaken for normal winged eyeliner or dolly makeup, both of which leave the average non-asian looking the same.

Asian fishing is a real issue and a form of racism, but is rarely taken seriously due to the misinformation and performative activism surrounding it.

AsianFishing

AsianFishing is when a white person makes their eyes look slanted to copy Asian (mostly eastern) peoples' faces or make themself look Asian in general. It's offensive because it dumbs down Asian people to a single facial feature and reduces their ethnic features to an aesthetic after being made fun of for years.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
