An Asian man with no self respect who perpetuates negative Asian stereotypes to gain approval from white people and western media.
He is usually self-loathing, wishes he was white, and self depreciates himself in order to gain acceptance from his white peers. He knows very little about his own culture and origins, preferring to parrot western stereotypes of his place of origin in order to score points with his white target audience.
Despite him selling his soul and dignity for popularity, he remains the
butt of all jokes and
will always be seen as a goofy sidekick and never as a main character.
His female equivalent is the Aunty
Lu (Asian female who hates Asian
men culture and simps for
mid white
men).
Famous examples include: Bobby Lee, Ken Jeong,
Jimmy O. Yang
Ned is a Chinese-American Uncle Chan. He doesn’t speak mandarin and doesn’t eat Chinese
food because he is ashamed of his heritage.
With his white friends, he makes jokes about his penis size, imitates a stereotypical Asian accent, and jokes about how he loves eating dog. This makes them laugh and makes them feel comfortable around him, but it doesn’t earn him any
real respect.
He thinks that his self loathing humor
will help him score white chicks. But it doesn’t, as it makes him unattractive as
hell.
Don’t be like Ned, don’t be an Uncle Chan. Be proud of your culture’s 5000 years of history.
