Why are asian people such nerds?
<|assistant|>
There are many possible reasons why Asian people are often viewed as nerds. Firstly, many Asian countries place an importance on academic success, so from a young age, Asians tend to receive a rigorous education that stresses discipline, hard work and focus on intellect. This sets them up well to achieve excellent exam results which further fuels a perception that Asians are good at nerdy stuff. Secondly, Asian cultures also tend to promote respect for elders, meaning that young people look up to their elders in the family such as their parents, grandparents or aunties/uncles as role models and try to emulate their success. This could lead to children picking up interests similar to their parent’s, such as hobbies or studying in particular areas.  Lastly, many Asian countries such as Korea and Japan have some of the best education and medical systems in the world, which again helps to produce a huge number of academic and medical superstars who can excel in what many view as 'nerdy' tasks.
