My name is Siyu and I'm the creator of Tiny Eyes Comics, a webcomic series that shares Chinese culture through slices of everyday life.

A year ago, I published two collections of my comics on the differences between Chinese and Western culture (you can find it here and here on Bored Panda). For this post, I'm putting together a collection of my latest comics that touch upon Chinese family life from education to superstition, from mom to grandma.

You can find more of my comics by clicking on the link to my Instagram below. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite!

    When we had Christmas diner a few years ago my brother in law asked my mom why is that the food is much better/ or he enjoying it much better on Christmas and she told him she always adds some special Christmas seasoning and he was satisfied with her answer. Then I asked her what kind of seasoning she added and she told me, no seasoning, it's just the Christmas... My mother is a great cook and I'll never be able to compare to her.

    I support this. If you can't afford a roof over your head, you're in no position to be proposing marriage. The way it looks, you're putting the responsibility of that roof on your partner, and that's not cool. Key note, when I say afford, I don't inherently mean own. I rented a room in a house for years before moving in my with my wife, but the point was that I paid for my own shelter. If I couldn't afford that much, I would never have asked her to marry me. My wellbeing should *never* be her responsibility.

    In the US, not so long ago, smoking was promoted to pregnant women to help them "relax", and kids were marketed to with candy (fake) cigarettes..... It's simply 2 different eras in marketing, in 2 different countries, with 2 different goals in mind. One is to make money off of cigarettes, the other is to not have the health care system pay for the repercussions of smoking cigarettes.

    Is there a reason for throwing it out the window? In my culture a tooth is put under the pillow for the tooth fairy to come and take in exchange for money or a trinket. Would be interesting to know about any others, too!
