Some Asian American men and women resist the stereotypes associating them with femininity by trying to be socially assertive. They may assert themselves in professional settings or social situations to challenge the perception that they are submissive or passive. This is a way of breaking free of the stereotype that they are weak or submissive, which is associated with femininity. A and B are not good choices as they are unrelated to resisting stereotypes and are more about conforming to white American cultural norms. C is also not a good choice as it is a stereotypical and offensive depiction of Asians as being only interested in classical music.
