Not asian-american but i have read about their thoughts on things. From what i gather atleast socially, asian americans feel like second class citizens in western societies, no matter how hard they study, they can't rise in management positions (bamboo ceiling), men are emasculated in the media (leading to a lot of their women favoring people of other races) etc... I think this is what the op meant, in chinese soceity, they would be the default, and so wouldn't face problems in areas which they feel are out of their control.
