that's a good question actually.
I was born in Australia with parents of Chinese heritage. I've lived my whole life here. I actually stopped speaking Cantonese when I was about 10 years old, because I didn't think it was relevant to living here (I can still understand a kid's level of Cantonese though).
I guess apart from outward appearance, my asian culture doesn't really mean much to me.
Perhaps at some level there is also a rejection of asianness; which is something that I can further explore.
It's definitely catalyst - because it caught my attention quite strongly.
