What does banana mean to describe people?

Bananas refer to those people in China who have accepted western culture. On the surface, they seem to be from China, but in fact they have been assimilated by the West. Except for their yellow skin color, they are all white in their bones.

American-born China people, also known as ABC (American-born China people), originally meant American-born China people. Although they also have black hair and yellow skin, they don't know Chinese and speak authentic American English. They have been influenced by American culture and education since childhood, and their way of thinking and values are completely Americanized, which is different from their predecessors who immigrated to the United States.

Now, the concept of American-born Chinese is no longer limited to the United States, but extends to the whole overseas, generally referring to the second and third generation children of overseas Chinese immigrants.
