How would you even hold chopsticks where all 5 fingers are touching each chopstick? Just how... Let alone in a functioning way...
The mental gymnastics you have to do for this to work are baffling to me, try holding a pen with all fingers touching and you’ll know it would make zero sense for a chopstick, let alone two.
manga/anime enjoying international popularity is great and the bnha american fandom in general is usually really fun, but sometimes the sheer ignorance of Japanese culture is frustrating. baffling too.
one time i read a fanfic where apparently Shigaraki can’t use chopsticks because he would decay them.
I can promise you Shigaraki can use chopsticks just fine. you do not need five fingers to hold chopsticks. the proper way to use chopsticks does not require five fingers. hell, improper ways still won’t have all five fingers touching the chopsticks.
Chopsticks
I’m such a disgrace to my Asian heritage. I really suck at chopsticks.
Wayne: *pulls out dueling canes* It is time to eat!
Wax: You mean fight?
Wayne: Don't play with your food, Wax. *menaces foes with dueling canes chopsticks*
Foe: What is wrong with him?
Wax: Your guess is as good as mine. *sighs and pulls out his guns*
Brought to you by, what if Wayne learned about chopsticks? And what are chopsticks but mini dueling canes?
i was raised like a proper americanized (half) asian.
Did I ever show this here? This was one of fairy's! Potential designs. I figured "Hey! Vos likes light doesn't he? Moff." And I ran
Chinese chopstick etiquette
There are certain rules for using knives and forks, so why wouldn't there be rules for chopsticks? Now that I know how to use chopsticks properly and (hopefully) without offending anyone, here are some main rules.
No playing with chopsticks In other words, using them like drumsticks and swordfighting with your table neighbour is not permissible (at least not in public).
No sticking your chopsticks up vertically into your bowl Shrines to deceased people usually have a bowl of rice or sand with 2 incense sticks sticking upwards, which is why sticking your chopsticks into your bowl can have similar unpleasant associations.
No pointing your chopsticks at people Pointing your chopsticks at someone is also a no go, as it's seen as hostile.
No digging around You should take from the top layer and avoid digging around the plate in search of the food.
No eating directly from the main plates You should first place the piece of food that you took onto your own plate, and then eat it, instead of eating straight from the source.
No tapping against the bowl Tapping against your plate is considered to be impolite and should be avoided when possible.
