White people are always making a fuss about PoC eating with their hands and sitting on the ground talking about how backward and uncivilized we are. But none of you realize how insanely difficult it is to eat with three fingers or less and to sit with one leg folded under you gracefully, and I don’t mean your legs crossed, I mean sitting with leg under you and the other one standing up by your side so you take up the smallest space possible which is how I was raised as a south east asian girl. How it’s an art that takes practice, how if we’re going to talk about table manners if you didn’t have a spoon/knife/fork and you were eating with your hands, you’d be ridiculously messy and would actually look savage like mannerless slobs.
