So I'm moving to Hawaii soon and I've never been before. I hear the Asians and Hawaiians hate everyone that doesn't look Asian there, but I'm white so should I prepare to get shit on all the time? Also I already have an Asian gf so I don't get the pleasure of banging all the Asian islanders ;_;
Anyway, any protips for Oahu from anyone that's been there before?
If you surf don't surf around natives
>the Asians

Hawaii has a lot of Japanese
>>78078750
Japanese/Chinese/Koreans that never made it all the way to the mainland US. It's the only state with more Asians than whites people. Native Hawaiians are only 10% of the population, Asians are almost 40, and whites are only 25% with the rest being HAPAs.

1) Everything is expensive, and I do mean everything. You might end up paying like $10 for a gallon of milk.
2) Native Hawaiians are generally poor and some have a penchant for violence. You shouldn't be afraid of them, but you should regard going into their neighborhoods or being surrounded by them as you would going into a poor black neighborhood on the mainland. If you exercise caution and show appropriate respect, you'll probably be fine.
3) Asians are everywhere, but not particularly xenophobic. They don't have very strong in-group identities, and many of the ones you'll meet will descend from a handful of different East and Southeast Asian ethnic groups. Basically, think along the lines of the European-descended mutts on the mainland and you have Hawaiian Asians.
4) Everyone will assume you're either well-off or a member of the military if you're white.
>I'm white so should I prepare to get shit on all the time?

I am a member of the military (Army officer), is that a bad thing?
>>78079285
Not really. The military is well-respected on the islands and Hawaiians consistently enlist at a much higher rate than the national average.
>>78079285
What rank?
Gib military secrets?
>>78079410
2LT in the Cavalry so I'm basically as familiar with military secrets as you are.

Our job is basically to go out and get killed conducting "reconnaissance." We're more or less the canary birds that miners used to take with them to know if they were gonna get killed by poison gas.
>>78079568
Is that like Armored Reconnaissance? What vehicles do you use?
>>78080106
Depends on the unit but they can be humvees, Strykers, or Bradleys. They all basically follow the same M.O. with dismounted scouts going forward and the vehicles supporting. Obviously there are some differences since Bradleys are much more survivalble than a humvee.
