Sometimes, you just have to take a stand and fight because if you don't, people will walk all over you and take command of your life.
Yes, it helps you stay away from troubles
No, it makes you a coward
Others, explain

Can you two be more specific on which asians are being pussy? There are are lot of different asian ethnicities. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, Cambodian, ect... Even for each nationality, there are a lot of different ethnics. For example, the Teochew, cantonese, shanghainese, Beijinger, manchurian, tibetan, ect... are all chinese but they are not the same. From what I see, asians bully each other pretty badly too. Some ethnic asians tend to think they are more superior than other ethnic asians.
Anyway, I disagree with you two. I think back away from problems is being wise than pussy. Usually, those punks are useless piece of siht. It's not worth it to put ourself down to their level.
I use the right phrase that is 退一步海闊天空.
Your first phrase is not bad either.
All of them, especially the Teochew.
Since we're into fancy old sayings in this thread, have you ever heard of "making a virtue of necessity"?Anyway, I disagree with you two. I think back away from problems is being wise than pussy. Usually, those punks are useless piece of siht. It's not worth it to put ourself down to their level.
It's not particularly admirable.

Despite Teochew people are being a small minority in China and worldwide, we have very high rate of success everywhere we go.

Having a little bit of money doesn't make you less of a pussy. In fact, the biggest pussies among Asians are the well-to-do Asian yuppies.

"I disapprove of what I say, but I will defend to the death my right to say it."
I think that applies to yuppies in general. But maybe that's just my own prejudice.
Because I'm somewhere in between,
My love and my agony.
退一步海闊天空 means that you can't see the whole situation when you are in the middle of it. The example I always use is that when you are inside a forest, you can only see a few trees, but when you step out of it, you can see the whole forest.

When need to, let the other person wins. Unless it will bring harm to the person or you or both.
So, taking a step back ethically is good advice.
Let me get this straight. This whole thread is basically about whether or not we should start a fight? Am I right or a long way off?
