Well, I'm mostly refering to the steretypes placed on us because of pop culture, particularly amongst our young, like assuming we all race Hondas and Acuras and play DDR. Or that we all know martial arts.
Amongst Asians, there's the whitewashed stereotype, but that's an internal thing too. I know that happens within every race, but I think it's ironic that we're stereotyped as being "model", yet to do what I've been called as "acting white", gets you chastised.
