i explain to EY that scientists have identified the gene responsible for fast twitch muscle fibers.
ACCORDING to genetic studies, the frequency of the fast twitch allele goes like this, from lowest to highest: asian < white < black.
EY proceeds to disregard all those studies. "How are Asians good at ping pong if they have less fast twitch muscle?"
I explain to him that ping pong requires ZERO athletic ability, since 1) the ball is extremely light and 2) the movements are short and swift. Asians have a lower reaction time, which helps with ping pong, badminton, and other sports that require fuck all when it comes to muscle power.
Look at all those flabby Asian nerds who are skilled at badminton. Are you going to argue that they have a higher % of any muscle tissue?
Accordingly, Asians suck at tennis, which DOES require fast twitch muscle. Heavier ball + greater distance = more fast twitch muscle needed.
Reaction time matters less for tennis, because you have time to think before making the requisite movements. Therefore you can't use ping pong to prove that Asians have more fast twitch tissue. Who is the Serena Williams of Japan, gae seki? Why aren't 333s dominating this sport with their "fast twitch" fibers?
According to her, its muscle mass.
Africans have more muscle mass than Asians.
and her view of white people is categorically racist. Emily hates white folk.
