I heard banana used to mean someone who looks chinese but acts western (e.g. because of having lived abroad)
and CLEARLY there are so many different interpretations actively in the vernacular, that to use it without further clarification is unfair
PS the opposite is an "egg" ... i.e. someone who looks white (caucasian) but acts Chinese (demonstrating chinese cultural values and behaviour) | |
