Chinese people must eat with chopsticks one
从12岁开始，每次和爷爷一起吃饭，他都会瞪着我说这句话。
From the age of 4, every time I sat down with my grandfather, he'd glower at me across the table and say that in Hokkien.
I am Disabled, Autistic and Dyspraxic
I only mastered the fine art of chopstick manipulation at 16, enduring snide comments from family members along the way
I wish they had said "There isn't one proper way to hold chopsticks"
There are many proper ways to eat
But "proper" follows me across cultures

In Singapore, we don't have lanyards to show our disabilities.在新加坡，我们不展示我们的残疾。We don't show them at all.
