Are you Vietnamese American or just Vietnamese ? |
I came to the US almost 30 years ago. I became American citizen and graduated with a MA degree with honor . I have no problem adjusting to this society but somehow I still prefer to identify myself as Vietnamese rather than Vietnamese American. I know some people do not have any problem identify as such but to me I never see myself as American.
I love Vietnam. I love so many things of being Vietnamese. I love our culture. I love the fact that we have a solid family foundation where young people respect the elderly and family has levels between older sisters, brothers and younger siblings. Something that you don't find in this country. I love Vietnamese music because it has meanings. I love the fact that Vietnamese men do not treat Vietnamese women like an object but the utmost respect because she is the mother of his children. When you speak with another Vietnamese person, whether you know the person or not, you always refer to them either bác, cô, chị, chú, anh, em etc.. Additional Details Do you consider yourself as Vietnamese American or Vietnamese? |

Vâng, cảm Æ¡n chị đã nói sá»± tháºt, em vẫn luôn nghÄ© là sinh ngữ cá»§a em rất kém và em Ä‘ang cố gắng để sá»a. Tháºt sá»± vá» việc đà n ông thì em vẫn chưa có kinh nghiệm, nhưng có thể vì môi trừong sống cá»§a chị đã cho chị 1 quan Ä‘iểm đẹp vỠđà n ông. Nhưng 1 lần nữa, quan Ä‘iểm cá»§a chị chưa hẳn lúc nà o cÅ©ng là đúng. Ở 1 đất nứoc nà o đó bao giá» cÅ©ng có ngừoi xấu và ngừoi tốt. Ngừoi phụ nữ Việt Nam ngà y xưa luôn có truyá»n thống vị tha, nhẫn nhục, tôn trá»ng và phục tùng ngừoi đà n ông. Há» là nạn nhân chỉ bởi vì xã há»™i, lối giáo dục ngừoi phụ nữ lúc bấy giá». Trao thân gá»i pháºn nhầm và o 1 ngừoi đà n ông đối xá» tệ bạc vá»›i há» phải chăng chÃnh là lá»—i cá»§a những ngừoi phụ nữ ấy? Xã há»™i đổi thay, và ngừoi phụ nữ Việt Nam bây giỠđã khác, há» có quyá»n lá»±a chá»n cách sống cá»§a há»: đảm Ä‘ang, buông thả, đó là do há» lá»±a chá»n.
"but this society, no matter what you do, when you turn your back, they still see you as Vietnamese"
>> chị đã trở vỠthăm Việt Nam chưa?
no matter what you do, when you turn your back, Vietnamese people still see you as an Vietnamese American
giống như em đã Ä‘á»c 1 bà i viết, có câu
too American to be a real Vietnamese
too Vietnamese to be a true American
Và không, em vẫn chưa ở Mỹ đủ lâu, có gì thì vẫn còn nhá» chị sá»a lá»—i giúp. Em đã sinh ra và lá»›n lên ở Việt Nam, Ä‘ang há»c và là m việc ở Mỹ. Em vẫn chưa 20 tuổi và suốt cuá»™c Ä‘á»i Ä‘i há»c, em chưa có dịp quen biết những ngừoi đà n ông Ãt há»c. Và quan Ä‘iểm vá» 1 số ngừoi đà n ông là theo sá»± tháºt, tà i liệu báo chÃ, không phải theo kinh nghiệm cá»§a em. |

I can only answer for my wife. She considers herself a Vietnamese Amerian. She loves both countries and all that both have given to her. Both countries have so much.
We will be back in Vietnam in 5 days for a month. If we didn't have a young daughter in school we would spend more time in Vietnam. Cheers. |

it stems from if a person respects themselves; if they do, they can respect people around them; unlike in the US, where people struggle to understand themselves, people in or from Vietnam know who they are and respect not only themselves, but family as well |

Be Romanian when you are in Rome.Memories are always pleasing and you can't live in Vietnam for ever. If you love Vietnam's culture follow the same thing in US too.
Why you still prefer to stay in US even though the US smashed Vietnam for many years ? |
