I don't care, people can eat how ever they want to eat... That said chopsticks are not exactly rocket science. It's just two sticks. It's like holding two pencils in your hand at the same time. You squeeze them around you food to shovel it into your mouth... If you're more concerned with formality, you you always place your chopsticks parallel to the table edge with the tips toward the left when you are not using them on a chopstick holder, your plate, or even a soy sauce condiment dish... Other than that, there's not much to know.

Using chop sticks properly and effectively requires practice and some coordination. It's not for everyone. My Asian friends use like an extension of their fingers which comes from using them exclusively from a very young age. Practice makes perfect. It not a shameful thing if you're not great with using them.
nope, it's okay if you don't know how to use them or don't want to use them

My fiancée is Chinese-American so I have learned to use chopsticks. Otherwise, I would still be an amateur with chopsticks. No, I don't think less of anyone who can't use them efficiently.
Yes, only a moron can;t use chopsticks
No. Why would I? Forks and spoons are easier to work with. More environmentally friendly, too.
And I can say from experience that food tastes the same, either way.
I don't think less of anyone because they don't know how to do something. They just never were taught
Yoooo, I use them like spears! I rarely try to use them and just wind up creating a scene when I do. I can't use chopsticks at all, lmfao.
Nope, some people are just not coordinated enough for them.
No. The reverse actually. How is that a flex? It'd be like if I thought I was superior because I knew how to use a telegraph.😆
Wouldn't even cross my mind.
No, that would be stupid and pointless
Of course not.
