Tiger Mom



















Yes, I have read Amy Chua's Wall Street Journal piece, "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior," and yes, I think the author is crazy.

You wouldn't believe how many people sent me this link over the weekend, expressing varying levels of outrage and exasperation. To be honest, at first I thought it was satire, until I was hit with the sickening, sinking realization that Chua is dead serious. She's completely embraced the model minority myth, and is the living embodiment of the Hardass Asian Mom... on friggin' steroids.

Asian PFLAG

Here is a nice article about the first Asian women in China who accept her gay son. Now she is trying to convince the rest of China to rethink what it means to love your children. Very touching story.

Her name is Mama Wu!
