They tend to think Asians are in their country seeking refuge and taking up space. Some also feel that they are stealing jobs from right beneath their nose. Resulting in the locals having insufficient jobs. Through and through, its all a misconception.

Usually, people are prejudice towards aisans because they know that some, not all, but some aisans have a really high knowlege and the people probably know a aisan that gets better grades than them or feels that the aisan person is making them look stupid or bad.
The prejudices non-aisans usually have are using aisans as a perfect human. They use this because the aisan has a habbit of being called a slim, smart, best at everything person. Usually, ads use aisans to project a more perfect object. If a seller says that their product is used by many aisans, people might think that the product is perfect. With the Burger King Aisan salad. It's just a way for the BK people to use the aisain as a skinny, good shape person. Others might think that they will turn into a perfect person.

One Mental stereotype would be that asian kids are much better at subjects like Math than non-asians.
While this has some basis in truth, considering that most asian schools of the same level have a more advanced math circulum.
Physical stereotype: Asians have small sharp eyes and can't pronounce their "L" 's and "R" 's.
Geographical Stereotype: All Asians are an "oriental" Japanese, chinese descent. Indians are also classified as Asian, Half of Turkey lies in the Asian reigion and is considered a part of asia.

O.K. I am going to be honest here. But remember, these are STEREOTYPES. There are stereotypes for every group out there. That is what makes them stereotypes. It does not mean they are right.
You don't really need to "GET IT" as you put. Just respect, honor and love yourself exactly as you are and forget about what others think.
Take back your power. Don't give it away by trying to figure out what the rest of the world is thinking. Just be the very best YOU that you can be. Get it? Shine on - you are perfect the way you are!
