Does Asian really have to stay asian?

It really made me wonder, why we Asians have to stay the weight we are. For these past few weeks of holiday, my mum have been bugging with my weight issue, and I'm not overweight, my bmi is perfectly healthy, but she was like " You are an Asian, so you have to stay like what Asians weight". I told her about my healthy BMI (not to say I'm proud, but it's still a fact), she got really pissed and said "Don't be a chinese, if you wanna compare your weight with the Aussies". Oh please, since when did I ever wanna compare with them, I'm like a "mini" compared to them.

Gosh, so is this a social norm comformity?
