The emasculation of Asian men and women can be contrasted with the hyper-masculinization of Black men and women. Different threats with different responses but the same hate.
If so, then that's how evolution transpired and that's how their race evolved. There's nothing wrong with that. You can have a masculine race and that would be okay. You can have a feminine race and that would be okay. One is not worse than the other.
@@Rose-vp2gh It was heavily influenced by western society. Racist jokes towards Asian was normalized for who knows how long and Asian women were fetishized by western men.
@@user-bo7zf3nz5e Right, historically that’s true and yes this historical perception still impacts us today. But I am talking about a newer phenomenon that is occurring. It’s a new type/cause of fetishization and it is forming through the widespread culture surrounding asian based entertainment. What is portrayed in this entertainment is not reflective of asian culture as a whole but is (in many cases) unfortunately a foreigner’s only perception of Asian culture. As a result the actions of Asian celebrities and Asian created characters are bleeding into others expectations of asians as a whole. These problematic expectations/bias are very common among anime and kpop fanbases, whether conscious or subconscious these newly formed biases are still there. This is unfortunately resulting in the fetishization, sexualisation, emasculation and p*dophilic views of Asians. I hope that clarifies what I mean.
I’d like to hear more about why Korean women protested spy cams in their country and common violence There’s a lot of abusive behaviors/sexism in Korea and many don’t get involved to stop it Even in Squid Games many were just looking when that guy was beating his ex That’s the reality, ppl know it’s wrong but are raised to “mind their business”
You are very smart. I am a Korean woman, and since I was young, women have been brainwashed by Korean men to be gentle, obedient, and nice. Gender discrimination is everything in Korean society.
All women of colour a fetishized but no one so blatantly and casually than Asian women which often can lead to violence . No one can dispute or dismiss this as a fact . I’ve overheard many white men , I’ve had white men who have personally been opened about their “ preference “ for Asian women which almost always is rooted in fetishization. Not all but majority of white men do . HOWEVER, there are many Asian women who openly fetishize when men too and deem it to be their “ preference “ . Many would go as far as belittling their Asian men to put their “ preference “ of a white man on a pedestal. Asian women and white men make up the majority of interracial relationships. If an Asian woman is not with an Asian man , she will almost always will pursue a white man . Proximity to whiteness , success , acceptance , assimilation, colorism , internslized racism. Many have or will get defensive of this truth that often always doesn’t get talked about . Proximity to whiteness or worshiping whiteness is deeply rooted in the Asian community. This perpetuation of white supremacist ideals . So if we’re going to talk about fetishization towards Asian women , you also need to mention Asian women fetishizating white men too . It goes both ways . How many Asian women openly speak of their preference for black men ? God forbid Most of your family members wouldn’t allow it . Negative stereotypes of black people/ black men run deep in the Asian community. So if most Asian have relationships with non Asians almost always white will be encouraged and preferred. Not many are ready for that conversation though !!!!!
What you're saying is true but the Black community of itself also has alot of hatred towards Asians, Whites, Latinos and just about every other race, even biracial Black people so let's talk about that to while we are at it 🤔
am asian, this is why i will tell my friends to steer far from asian women who only date white men. they are usually self-hating racists who will put down other minorities and their own to gain white acceptance.
@@kevinbrathwaite1116 As a black person, I have met many black people who dislike white people. But in my experience it's very rare to find black people who hate any other race (Asians, Latinos, Mixed, etc.). Black people make jokes about these groups but it's rarely in a hateful way
Emasculation of asian men defitnitelty a topic we need to talk about. Especially with the fetisization of asian women. What they (try to) did to bruce Lee, asian men in the media ( the stereotypes)..... Remember what "mainstream west" said about kpop😒
Yeah western media makes asian men shy and nerdy and like an outcast it's so bad because they can be dominant and masculine too we had a not so nice, not so shy, not so nerdy boy fron vietnam in our school and he was a bully haha where you come from doesn't determine your personality
Honest question, does Memoirs of a Geisha fall into that bad book list? I heard that the author stole The info and made it more sensational than what the real Geisha told him. I loved that book growing up but it makes me uncomfortable now. I also heard that that same real Geisha wrote a book of her own, that tells the accurate stories. Does anyone know anything in this?
Mineko Iwasaki made her own book, in which she explained how she feel about begin a Geisha. Is it call "Geisha a Life" the book memoirs of a Geisha is just a narrative driven book, but is not the true history in the same way almost any movie about a real life person is related to that persons life.
He twisted it. He's an American white man who clearly is fetishing women in to objects and fantasy , tried to sensationalise Asian with blue eyes ( Eurocentric gaze to make her more valuable ) . geishas are not prostitude and are respected for their arts and talented. And the geisha who the guy got inspired is furious by his book / film.
I have a Japanese aunt and love her truly. He husband my uncle passed away awhile a go and she told me of my family's history in Mississippi blew my mind.
I am amazed by the lack of awareness about the lack of knowledge about Racist Legislation that has existed in America since the 1880s. White supremacy from the very beginning.
Interracial marriage between white men and Asian women is not white supremacy. Racially segregated relationships are white supremacy. Your logic makes absolutely no sense. Are you people trying to impose your own traditional white family structures onto all other ethnicities?
@@connergehdatbahng How do ‘they’ fetishizes white guys? I am curious about this phenomenon in the comments about Asian women marrying white men. If someone could send me their sources? Because from personal experience Asian women tend to marry Asian men and when they don’t they face cultural and familial scrutiny/shame.
Nice culture. I can say for my culture (Hungarian) there is an "Asian fetish" as well, but for different reasons. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a didn't have overseas colonies like other Western empires. In Hungary's case it's mainly because of the legends of the ancient Huns (Attila was from what is today Budapest) and Magyars (who as a whole looked more White than Asian), as well as the culture/language/mentality similarities with the Turkic-Mongol peoples. So even with things in general, fascination with the orient is quite strong in Hungary. I can say I've known a number of Hungarians who went to South Korea experiencing little to no culture shock, compared to Americans and West Europeans. To those Hungarians, Korea felt like something very similar to their own country, yet still being distinct. I've heard Turkish people say very similar things as well.
I am korean I heard about hungary that architecture is magnificent, the streets are clean and beautiful , And there are many tall, blue eyed good looking people I love my country but korea is not good country for sightseeing ^^
I'm an old white guy on the path to becoming a high school teacher after 40 years in tech. I intend to teach STEM subjects to disadvantaged and underserved students. First because I want to follow the need (the predominantly white schools are abundantly resourced). More importantly, because at least 90% of the engineers I've worked with were white males: Engineers, as a group, were implicitly exclusionary in every way possible (including ageism). I want tech to become explicitly inclusionary. For me, that starts with getting excluded communities interested in STEM as a vocation. A nice goal, right? What it really means is I have much to learn about those whom I hope to serve. A burning desire is a great motivator, but it won't make the connections that must be made. I need to learn so much more about history and culture, and our current society. Including how people who looked like me made things the way they are. I feel as though this channel were created to meet my exact needs. It seems every sentence launches questions and topics for me to follow-up. This is the only YT channel where I've been taking notes for each episode. Which leads to a request: Would you please add even more references to the description? I'm not a particularly great researcher in this area (the curse of the newbie), and I'm having trouble following everything up. For example, the I'm having trouble finding the videos for "Sisters and Siblings in the Struggle". I did find transcripts, but would prefer to hear the words - my inner reading voice is NOT the right voice for these words! Thanks!
Hi BobC, I'm Dolly, co-host of #PHAAonPBS. You have such an exciting career pivot ahead of you, congratulations! Glad to hear that our content is leading to more questions and curiosities. Note received on adding more resources, and here is a link to watch Sisters and Siblings in the Struggle: th-cam.com/video/GnW7nj6OuMw/w-d-xo.html Do let us know if there are more topics you'd like us to explore and appreciate your thoughtful comment!
I find it astonishing that someone can be smart enough to work 40 years in tech yet dumb enough to buy into left-wing propaganda. People like you are the modern day religious fanatics who are completely blind to reason.
intersectionality isn't only about gender and race, but how every way of discrimination like racism, sexism, ableism, classism or just being poor interacts
I am teaching identity and point of view and this set of videos are extremely helpful in broadening student's knowledge regarding collective and individual identity. Keep up the great work!
Also, there was such thing as "Yellow Fever" until American soldiers encountered East Asian women in large numbers and as sex workers in Japan following the end of World War II, in Korea, in Vietnam and Bangkok during the Vietnam War, and earlier during the Filipino-American War. From the 1840s to the 1940s there was no such thing as an "Asian Fetish" in America. Indeed, during that period white America perceived Chinese women as just as unattractive as Chinese men, and - as with the men - often as quite repulsive..
We all have different appearances from each other, but I think there's really only one "race" - the human race. White guy here, and yes while I do find a lot of Asian women attractive, true interest in someone comes from knowing her personality. If she's a nasty lady, for example cruel to animals, she could be the prettiest girl in the world and I wouldn't want anything to do with her. And I try to encourage that in other guys. Be attracted to WHO she is, not only what she looks like. It's true, looking good might get your attention, but being a good person is what should keep it. And that works both ways, with guys and girls.
To find one particular ethnic group more attractive is mean and evil. Actually, to have any preference related to physical characteristics should not be condoned.
It’s annoying that dating preference is called a fetish though. Basically if you are black or not asian and want to date asian people because you like how they look its a fetish? Well I think people who think that way are racist. I’ll date whoever want thanks 😊 stop calling it a fetish
As a Native American boy watching movies about Native American. Those roles cast Asian actress. Jennifer Tilly, Moon Bloodgood, Aimée Eccles, & Joan Chen. I was lied to.....Hollywood those liars. My "yellow fever," began. I have no idea my preference is harmful.
How come when a white girl only dates black guys it's a preference. When a woman only dates tall men it's a preference. When a man only dates Blondes (or Brunettes or Redheads etc) it's a preference; but when a guy says he prefers Asian women and thinks they're the most beautiful it's called a fetish? Doesn't seem right. You can prefer the physical appearance of an asian woman without it being a fetish just like everyone else has a particular preference when it comes to the appearance of their romantic partners.
West likes Asian women for their more feminine look and beauty. But they have negative stereotype against asian men for being feminine looking and tend to associate them on kung fu because of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee. Many white men likes dating asian women but very few white women are interested on dating asian men.
Really great insight and investigation; I think the video is a nice intro to intersectionality. Do other cultures also have an “Asian fetish” i.e straight black men in the US; South American men with European heritages; European men pre 18th century? Does the “Asian fetish” exist in the LGBTQ+ community in the US?
I can say for my culture (Hungarian) there is an "Asian fetish" as well, but for different reasons. The Austro-Hungarian Empire didn't have overseas colonies like other Western empires. In Hungary's case it's mainly because of the legends of the ancient Huns (Attila was from what is today Budapest) and Magyars (who as a whole looked more White than Asian), as well as the culture/language/mentality similarities with the Turkic-Mongol peoples.

There is no “Asian fetish.” Men like hot. It just so happens that male preferences in regards to weight/body type (obvious) and demeanor (debatable) are often found in Asian women. Unlike 100 years ago, people have global access to one another and this has become more noticeable. Men around the globe like Asian women which makes this gobbledegook that it’s related to portrayals from movies/acts made in 1875 sound ridiculous. The problem for white western men is that women of their race have never been fatter and more unpleasant. No amount of shaming or hit pieces are going to change that. I don’t hear many hit pieces pointed toward Asian women for having a white dude fetish, despite it being a noticeable preference. I wonder why?
I would like broader information on other countries. Is this "Yellow fever" an American thing that is being copied elsewhere or is a bigger thing that took this way in the US?
I live in Atlanta. This is all true. Bdsm, fetishism, all this comes from racist stereotypes of the past and slavery and thank you for teaching me the page act now. Because of so many truth this video touches on this one is one of the best making me feel better to listen to all this to because it's the truth. I hate being fetishized and all women and men I talk to hate it too and it came from stereotypes people learned of the past. And I feel many videos don't talk like this out of fear. We're tired of haters discrediting us. But now we've gotten to a point we don't care we must say this. There are so many young women going towards what they really don't want. And yes like she said men make fun of this subject any color because they feel women problems don't effect them when it does effect men of all colors too. Good video thanks
I don't really understand what you are talking about. BDSM is a lot of things and is not hard linked linked to racism (most has zero to do with it). Fetish goes back even farther to antiquity and all people have a bit of that. I am here to see why some people do of about "Asian women are this and that. (honeslty that is just stupid as all hell) I came to see where that came from and I am a male. If we are honest and true to each other we have better lives. If we see each other for who and what we are and a lady loves his chest and he loves her eyes and they want to play Patient and Nurse I don't see the issue.
So white men and Asian women are not allowed to be in relationships with each other because of slavery in America, and BDSM is evil now? The correlation here is strange. It almost seems like you are against interracial relationships between these specific races and genders and you are trying to justify your own racism and sexism by highlighting your own victimhood, which is horrible if you are being enslaved or racially profiled, but you should learn from that and not victimize other races and genders because of how that made you feel. Asian women are allowed to be in relationships with whomever they want, you aren't allowed to oppress other races in a completely different continent just because you were racially profiled.
I'm a white man and I prefer asian women. I don't care if you call if fetish. It's my personal preference. It doesn't mean I don't date non-asian women or that I don't find other women attractive, but priority-wise, when it comes to looks, I find asian women better looking. When it comes to the "inner beauty" then the race doesn't matter. Good and bad personality doesn't choose race and I will not tolerate a bad personality regardless if it's asian. So, in conclusion, it's just a personal preference for external beauty. Leave us alone.
As if other countries don't have a "European fetish"? Several anime I watched recently 'fetishized" white immigrants going to school in Japanese schools. I guess that doesn't fit the narrative though. Can we stop accusing people of racism just for being attracted to a particular "race" for the physical and cultural characteristics that are common among their people? My sister has always dated black men and had three black/white mixed children. Does that make her a racist just because she is white? I get a lot of attention on dating apps from black women who like white guys. Does that mean they're fetishizing me? Are black people who prefer to date other black people fetishizing themselves just because they're attracted to particular aspects?
You missed the point!!! Date whomever you want but there are stereotypes that mainstream media and Hollywood portrays Asians in a very demeaning light.
No, but its mostly asians who get fetishized alot online. Ive seen people CLAIMING that they're asian while they are not. People act like east asians are rare but we are not
Fantastic vid that I am def going to include as part of our discussion of the exclussionary / xenophobic & fetishizing of others in US History for my fall semester courses - hope my students are ready to delve into intersectionalism!!
I wish we had more people teaching STEM topics rather than focusing on 1860s issues. and I'm sorry for the students who are being taught they should feel different due to their race one way or another. More over, I'm sorry for tax payer who pays you to teach racism. we should fire you frankly, and hire more STEM teachers.
So smart and well-done! I especially appreciated Dr. Rena Heinrich’s comments. She really explained the roots of the Asian fetish in a lucid and compelling way.
@@johnnastrom9400 no she is angry that Asian women are taking all the white men and she is racially stereotyping interracial relationships between Asian women and Caucasian men in that video. Racism is not educational. Be ashamed bigot.
Sorry, Officer Baker, but you’re deadly mistaken. That angry White dude, whose side you appear to make excuses for, wasn’t “having a bad day”. He was just angry. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏾♂️💔 For the record, in case nobody knew, just because I draw and paint Japanese women don’t mean that I would “orientalise” my Japanese or other Asian sisters, and I am a Black woman artist! ❤️💜🌹🕊 Oh, and that’s not a Japanese woman. That’s a White woman with chopsticks, rags and flowers in her hair. Surely a real Japanese woman don’t look like that! 😫😩
I am angry, especially with hate crimes of this nature being excused. That would anger any sane person. 🙅🏻♀️

Sadly, the two hosts of this video didn't take time to understand the zeitgeist in China and Japan during these various time periods vis-à-vis whites/blacks residing therein. Both countries had their own styled exclusion acts that not only stopped immigration but kicked out those who arrived earlier.
They already are. A significant number of Asian women in western countries date outside their race. From their subconscious beliefs, they gain privilege from marrying a native husband.
Wow, Amazing reification of subjective associations to particular laws taken out of context and then projected onto a current claimed social space which is merely another just-so story. Thank you for offering an exemplar of a deontological narrative that does not even pretend to have any self-critique.
this "woke edited" video is hard to watch, me and asian gf are not amused (she was like i bet they spend at least half the time taking about african Americans) 19k thousand views watch out thats a small college staduim right there
@@alienboy1322 o you got some thoughts there? sorry i don't like my videos about Asian americans being all about african americans. why are you so mad at your dad?
Hungarians and other Central/East Europeans also think of Asia as being Mongolia and the Asian Turkic peoples. Those 2 come to mind quite often to us, along with Japan, Korea and China. But Vietnam, Philippines, Thailand, etc. are rarely thought of.
Where Did The “Asian Fetish” Come From? Where do I begin? Geisha's, Anime, Trini from Power Rangers, any Kung Fu movies with a female protagonist, All Japan Pro Wrestling, Miho from Sin City, DOA video games. Should I go on?
It's not a fetish, they think asian women are better than yt women. Asian women (in Asian countries) are more feminine and sweet than most women in western countries, it's about the cultural differences. These men are just going where they are treated better
This is so wrong, mainly white men go to Asia because they know that the women there are less educated or poorer. Asian women sometimes have no other choice and have to put up with such men. Just because women in America are brave and have their needs, they are labeled as not feminine or sweet. Your statement is just an excuse to take advantage of other women in developing countries.
@@thuyvihoang9421 thats just a minority of men , in most cases men just want to have a normal relationship with a normal women. When they look at a western women with tattoos, bad attitude and higher body count, they don't feel any love. No man can love modern Western women. Lot of rich arab men comes to US and date western women, but none of them have serious relationship with them , you know why ? Because these women are not wife meterial. Then they just go and marry women from their own culture because they are more reliable and trustworthy
@@jimmoriarty4530 Many of your aspects are very conservative, first of all there are women even if they have tattoos or a high bodycount can love you equally just as much. We live in a time where women dare to say or do what they want. Men are allowed to get tattoos or sleep with as many women as they want. Why not women? And if I am honest, the Arabs have their own mentality and culture. That an Arab likes to have many women around him or have several wives is another matter. The claim that no man would love such women is also false. I see many happy couples in western continents. In addition, many women have their own decision whether to have a family or to enjoy life. If the Arabs and the American women both get something out of it, then so be it. No one dictates how you want to live. Even in Asia, women are starting to think that way too. Many Asians also have tattoos and have a high bodycount. They enjoy their life the way they want.
@@jimmoriarty4530 I forgot something else, most men often go to Asia to maybe enjoy the culture. But also make love with some Asian women or get a bride from there. It is mostly women who do not speak English.
@@thuyvihoang9421 it's not about being conservative or liberal, its about what men want and what men are looking for in a partner. You call yourself a feminist and talk about equality. Are you willing to marry a poor man ? How many modern women and Feminists are ok with marrying poor men? Men have no problem with marrying someone who works for minimum wage if she is attractive and young. Why does women classify men based on our height and salary? Because thats what you want , however progressive you think you are, you are not able to do it. Same way men are territorial in nature, why would I risk my life for a woman I cannot say "she's mine". I heard women say "men are afraid of commitment" , have these women ever saw how men treat their cars and dogs. We can only be committed to someone or something we see as ours, you call it viewing you as property. We would die to protect whats our. We cannot love an only fans model, we cannot love a woman who got heiger body count, we simply cannot, however modern anybody claim they are , they just want your body and they will just leave you. Men who wants to use you might say whatever you want to hear to get what he wants to gets , thats it. After that he will go somewhere else.
What's also absurd is how they expose segregation of relationships between white people and black people and use that to try justifying themselves racially segregating relationships between Asian woman and Caucasian men.
I am Ashkenazim. People feeling that they need to talk about hate are weird. That talking about being brutal people is sad. That you can marry an Irish person. Is that what you want? I know what I am. Why are you here if you don't like it here? My mom's ancestry was from Salem, Massachusetts. I have been told many times that everyone is better than me. It is crazy. I hate everyone.
I won't call this garbage, but I am inclined to do so. You are neglecting many factors that cause current day non-Asian men to be attracted to Asian women. And, it's far from being a fetish. Nice word choice, by the way. Puts a negative spin on someone being attracted to features and behaviors of Asian women that seem to have been removed from the typical feminist Western Woman. It's also nice how you went back 150 years to help make your case while blending it into that horrible event in Georgia. It wasn't a case of Asian Fetishism. He said as much. As simplistically as possible, he frequented massage parlors because some of them do front prostitution. If it's known which ones do that, that's what where many men go. Second, if you look around at most massage spa's, the vast majority of the attendants are Chinese Asians. If they would have been Brazilians, he would have shot and killed 6 Brazilians as a way to deal with his psychosis. Presentations like this only take a very small problem or opinion and try to grow it into something that it isn't. I am Caucasian. I have had close relationships with 2 Chinese women and casual friendships developed with others when I taught medical ESL - who I found to be very attractive due to their kindness, their intelligence and their caring. And, I find Asian features to be attractive. They were both medical students. I think that one of the biggest positives that Caucasian men appreciate is how most Asian women do not feel the need to conquer, humiliate or bully their partner. I wouldn't take that from a male friend of mine. And, make no mistake, Asian women are no pushovers, either. I watched a friend get some severe payback he deserved from his Asian girlfriend. Here's a piece of advice for Western women... stop being bullies and supremacists and maybe you won't have to make up a word to cover the fact that men are finding you to not be worth the time and trouble. Many Asian women are worth it. There are many wonderful examples of inter-racial success stories here, if you care to look for them. How many thousands of Asian women marry American service members and happily raise a good family? How many Caucasian couples lovingly adopt Asian babies and give them a chance to have a good life? Sure, be negative and cause problems, or highlight the great good and use that as an example of what can, and is being done by good people. Somehow, I know what road you will go down. It's a shame, actually. Oh, and if you really want to help Asian women... you ought to dig into human trafficking. Especially who is doing it and how they do it.
@not relevant "against the idea of asian women getting fetishized and you're failing miserably". No he isn't. You have not made the case that they are.
And then, the next PBS video is "How Manga Took Over American Bookshelves." Manga comes from an Asian men's fixation on European women. Especially teenage or even pubescent forms. Always note the age and form of the girls in it. This video is based on "white man bad" and "women of color good" instead of "let's finally find out what's good about us all. " Critical Race Theory" is a tool to diminish one to raise up another. We should raise all - there's plenty of blame to go around so let's look for the good that IS IN EACH OF US.
Japan and China as well have beauty ideals surrounding diff eye colours and blonde hair. It stemmed from Japan during WW2 when they were modernizing which led them to bringing back many cultural ideals including the features of westerners (blonde hair, blue/green eyes etc) and it eventually melded into their culture ig. So no this isn’t an accurate comparison.
Also they brought up “white man bad” in a historical sense. This is because It’s impossible to address the history of orientalism in the west (primarily white run countries) and separate it from race. This is because the whole concept is based in race. I personally don’t understand what this has to do with white supremacy but that doesn’t have to do with coloured women vs white men. That’s just the current climate of minority oppression. Which yes is problematic, but that doesn’t erase many of the educational and important points brought up in the video. Just acknowledge the bad of the segment without completely ignoring the good. People in the comments are taking this too personally. It’s not an insult to you.
Fetishisation is the worse expression of it, but in my experience, the idea of racial preference in attraction is from the same roots. Even if it comes from a greater understanding and appreciation of a particular culture, seeing that as inherently in a person because of their "race" is still prejudice. I am not saying that dating preferences are evil, but that they share the same roots of projecting traits onto whole groups.
I think a more accurate way the video could’ve described it is that racial preference leads to prejudice/projection of traits which then results in fetishization.
Hmm let's also discuss about Whiteman being fetashise by Asian and blackwoman. Because I beleive Asian fetashization is not one way street. Both Asian girls and blackwoman also fetashise Whiteman. It's an issue of internal racism in Asian and black communities. I know this because my older 28 year old sister is obsessed with whiteboys. And all her life she only dated white man. Prove me wrong by writing down your comment down below.
The emasculation of Asian men and women can be contrasted with the hyper-masculinization of Black men and women. Different threats with different responses but the same hate.
If so, then that's how evolution transpired and that's how their race evolved. There's nothing wrong with that. You can have a masculine race and that would be okay. You can have a feminine race and that would be okay. One is not worse than the other.
Not true. Asians are treated better.

Even in Squid Games many were just looking when that guy was beating his ex
That’s the reality, ppl know it’s wrong but are raised to “mind their business”
You are very smart. I am a Korean woman, and since I was young, women have been brainwashed by Korean men to be gentle, obedient, and nice. Gender discrimination is everything in Korean society.

All women of colour a fetishized but no one so blatantly and casually than Asian women which often can lead to violence . No one can dispute or dismiss this as a fact . I’ve overheard many white men , I’ve had white men who have personally been opened about their “ preference “ for Asian women which almost always is rooted in fetishization. Not all but majority of white men do . HOWEVER, there are many Asian women who openly fetishize when men too and deem it to be their “ preference “ . Many would go as far as belittling their Asian men to put their “ preference “ of a white man on a pedestal. Asian women and white men make up the majority of interracial relationships. If an Asian woman is not with an Asian man , she will almost always will pursue a white man . Proximity to whiteness , success , acceptance , assimilation, colorism , internslized racism. Many have or will get defensive of this truth that often always doesn’t get talked about . Proximity to whiteness or worshiping whiteness is deeply rooted in the Asian community. This perpetuation of white supremacist ideals . So if we’re going to talk about fetishization towards Asian women , you also need to mention Asian women fetishizating white men too . It goes both ways . How many Asian women openly speak of their preference for black men ? God forbid Most of your family members wouldn’t allow it . Negative stereotypes of black people/ black men run deep in the Asian community. So if most Asian have relationships with non Asians almost always white will be encouraged and preferred. Not many are ready for that conversation though !!!!!
I will ask what you female humanoids so many times asked me: who hurt you
What you're saying is true but the Black community of itself also has alot of hatred towards Asians, Whites, Latinos and just about every other race, even biracial Black people so let's talk about that to while we are at it 🤔
am asian, this is why i will tell my friends to steer far from asian women who only date white men. they are usually self-hating racists who will put down other minorities and their own to gain white acceptance.
Amen 👏 so true !!! Asians are racist towards anyone who is nonwhite.

Is Asian women really being fetishized or are they fetishizing white men?
Honest question, does Memoirs of a Geisha fall into that bad book list? I heard that the author stole The info and made it more sensational than what the real Geisha told him. I loved that book growing up but it makes me uncomfortable now. I also heard that that same real Geisha wrote a book of her own, that tells the accurate stories.
Does anyone know anything in this?
the author was sued for ruining the geisha's life and reputation and slandering the profession outright.
yes
Mineko Iwasaki made her own book, in which she explained how she feel about begin a Geisha. Is it call "Geisha a Life" the book memoirs of a Geisha is just a narrative driven book, but is not the true history in the same way almost any movie about a real life person is related to that persons life.
yup
He twisted it. He's an American white man who clearly is fetishing women in to objects and fantasy , tried to sensationalise Asian with blue eyes ( Eurocentric gaze to make her more valuable ) . geishas are not prostitude and are respected for their arts and talented. And the geisha who the guy got inspired is furious by his book / film.

White supremacy from the very beginning.
Interracial marriage between white men and Asian women is not white supremacy. Racially segregated relationships are white supremacy. Your logic makes absolutely no sense. Are you people trying to impose your own traditional white family structures onto all other ethnicities?

Nice culture. I can say for my culture (Hungarian) there is an "Asian fetish" as well, but for different reasons. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a didn't have overseas colonies like other Western empires. In Hungary's case it's mainly because of the legends of the ancient Huns (Attila was from what is today Budapest) and Magyars (who as a whole looked more White than Asian), as well as the culture/language/mentality similarities with the Turkic-Mongol peoples. So even with things in general, fascination with the orient is quite strong in Hungary. I can say I've known a number of Hungarians who went to South Korea experiencing little to no culture shock, compared to Americans and West Europeans. To those Hungarians, Korea felt like something very similar to their own country, yet still being distinct. I've heard Turkish people say very similar things as well.

I'm an old white guy on the path to becoming a high school teacher after 40 years in tech. I intend to teach STEM subjects to disadvantaged and underserved students. First because I want to follow the need (the predominantly white schools are abundantly resourced). More importantly, because at least 90% of the engineers I've worked with were white males: Engineers, as a group, were implicitly exclusionary in every way possible (including ageism). I want tech to become explicitly inclusionary. For me, that starts with getting excluded communities interested in STEM as a vocation.
A nice goal, right? What it really means is I have much to learn about those whom I hope to serve. A burning desire is a great motivator, but it won't make the connections that must be made. I need to learn so much more about history and culture, and our current society. Including how people who looked like me made things the way they are.
I feel as though this channel were created to meet my exact needs. It seems every sentence launches questions and topics for me to follow-up. This is the only YT channel where I've been taking notes for each episode.
Which leads to a request: Would you please add even more references to the description? I'm not a particularly great researcher in this area (the curse of the newbie), and I'm having trouble following everything up. For example, the I'm having trouble finding the videos for "Sisters and Siblings in the Struggle".

Also, there was such thing as "Yellow Fever" until American soldiers encountered East Asian women in large numbers and as sex workers in Japan following the end of World War II, in Korea, in Vietnam and Bangkok during the Vietnam War, and earlier during the Filipino-American War. From the 1840s to the 1940s there was no such thing as an "Asian Fetish" in America. Indeed, during that period white America perceived Chinese women as just as unattractive as Chinese men, and - as with the men - often as quite repulsive..
Loved it! Very informative.
We all have different appearances from each other, but I think there's really only one "race" - the human race. White guy here, and yes while I do find a lot of Asian women attractive, true interest in someone comes from knowing her personality. If she's a nasty lady, for example cruel to animals, she could be the prettiest girl in the world and I wouldn't want anything to do with her. And I try to encourage that in other guys. Be attracted to WHO she is, not only what she looks like. It's true, looking good might get your attention, but being a good person is what should keep it. And that works both ways, with guys and girls.
To find one particular ethnic group more attractive is mean and evil.
Actually, to have any preference related to physical characteristics should not be condoned.
Attaboy.
It’s annoying that dating preference is called a fetish though. Basically if you are black or not asian and want to date asian people because you like how they look its a fetish? Well I think people who think that way are racist. I’ll date whoever want thanks 😊 stop calling it a fetish
A more likely scenario is that intersectionality will lead to different groups fighting over who is more oppressed.
I depends on person you love .. you can marry anyone
True, but understand the reason for marriage. It is out of love or from stereotype? Do you want a partner or a submissive?
As a Native American boy watching movies about Native American. Those roles cast Asian actress. Jennifer Tilly, Moon Bloodgood, Aimée Eccles, & Joan Chen.
I was lied to.....Hollywood those liars.
My "yellow fever," began. I have no idea my preference is harmful.
How come when a white girl only dates black guys it's a preference. When a woman only dates tall men it's a preference. When a man only dates Blondes (or Brunettes or Redheads etc) it's a preference; but when a guy says he prefers Asian women and thinks they're the most beautiful it's called a fetish? Doesn't seem right. You can prefer the physical appearance of an asian woman without it being a fetish just like everyone else has a particular preference when it comes to the appearance of their romantic partners.
This needs to be all over TV and all over every TV station
West likes Asian women for their more feminine look and beauty. But they have negative stereotype against asian men for being feminine looking and tend to associate them on kung fu because of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee.

Really great insight and investigation; I think the video is a nice intro to intersectionality. Do other cultures also have an “Asian fetish” i.e straight black men in the US; South American men with European heritages; European men pre 18th century? Does the “Asian fetish” exist in the LGBTQ+ community in the US?

Most poc in America choice of fetishes is for the whites women .they love white women just hate being called out on their fetishes.
Oh then they had to include a black woman in a subject about Asian women! Wow!
They have opposite stereotypes. Asian women are stereotyped as sexually submissive. Black women are stereotyped as aggressive and antagonistic.
There is no “Asian fetish.” Men like hot. It just so happens that male preferences in regards to weight/body type (obvious) and demeanor (debatable) are often found in Asian women. Unlike 100 years ago, people have global access to one another and this has become more noticeable.
Men around the globe like Asian women which makes this gobbledegook that it’s related to portrayals from movies/acts made in 1875 sound ridiculous.
The problem for white western men is that women of their race have never been fatter and more unpleasant. No amount of shaming or hit pieces are going to change that.
I don’t hear many hit pieces pointed toward Asian women for having a white dude fetish, despite it being a noticeable preference. I wonder why?
Where did she get the jacket??? It’s so dope!!
I would like broader information on other countries. Is this "Yellow fever" an American thing that is being copied elsewhere or is a bigger thing that took this way in the US?
Nope, its almost every where
More please!
I live in Atlanta. This is all true. Bdsm, fetishism, all this comes from racist stereotypes of the past and slavery and thank you for teaching me the page act now. Because of so many truth this video touches on this one is one of the best making me feel better to listen to all this to because it's the truth. I hate being fetishized and all women and men I talk to hate it too and it came from stereotypes people learned of the past. And I feel many videos don't talk like this out of fear. We're tired of haters discrediting us. But now we've gotten to a point we don't care we must say this. There are so many young women going towards what they really don't want.
And yes like she said men make fun of this subject any color because they feel women problems don't effect them when it does effect men of all colors too. Good video thanks
I don't really understand what you are talking about. BDSM is a lot of things and is not hard linked linked to racism (most has zero to do with it). Fetish goes back even farther to antiquity and all people have a bit of that. I am here to see why some people do of about "Asian women are this and that. (honeslty that is just stupid as all hell) I came to see where that came from and I am a male. If we are honest and true to each other we have better lives. If we see each other for who and what we are and a lady loves his chest and he loves her eyes and they want to play Patient and Nurse I don't see the issue.
So white men and Asian women are not allowed to be in relationships with each other because of slavery in America, and BDSM is evil now? The correlation here is strange. It almost seems like you are against interracial relationships between these specific races and genders and you are trying to justify your own racism and sexism by highlighting your own victimhood, which is horrible if you are being enslaved or racially profiled, but you should learn from that and not victimize other races and genders because of how that made you feel. Asian women are allowed to be in relationships with whomever they want, you aren't allowed to oppress other races in a completely different continent just because you were racially profiled.
I'm a white man and I prefer asian women. I don't care if you call if fetish. It's my personal preference. It doesn't mean I don't date non-asian women or that I don't find other women attractive, but priority-wise, when it comes to looks, I find asian women better looking. When it comes to the "inner beauty" then the race doesn't matter. Good and bad personality doesn't choose race and I will not tolerate a bad personality regardless if it's asian. So, in conclusion, it's just a personal preference for external beauty. Leave us alone.
Such a vital service you're providing 💕 keep it up!

As if other countries don't have a "European fetish"? Several anime I watched recently 'fetishized" white immigrants going to school in Japanese schools. I guess that doesn't fit the narrative though. Can we stop accusing people of racism just for being attracted to a particular "race" for the physical and cultural characteristics that are common among their people? My sister has always dated black men and had three black/white mixed children. Does that make her a racist just because she is white? I get a lot of attention on dating apps from black women who like white guys. Does that mean they're fetishizing me? Are black people who prefer to date other black people fetishizing themselves just because they're attracted to particular aspects?
You can date whoever you want, not my issue. It's not like you're building a business with them.
You missed the point!!! Date whomever you want but there are stereotypes that mainstream media and Hollywood portrays Asians in a very demeaning light.
No, but its mostly asians who get fetishized alot online. Ive seen people CLAIMING that they're asian while they are not. People act like east asians are rare but we are not
There are so many red light districts in Taiwan and other Asian countries

It's not a fetish, they think asian women are better than yt women. Asian women (in Asian countries) are more feminine and sweet than most women in western countries, it's about the cultural differences. These men are just going where they are treated better
This is so wrong, mainly white men go to Asia because they know that the women there are less educated or poorer. Asian women sometimes have no other choice and have to put up with such men. Just because women in America are brave and have their needs, they are labeled as not feminine or sweet. Your statement is just an excuse to take advantage of other women in developing countries.
@@thuyvihoang9421 thats just a minority of men , in most cases men just want to have a normal relationship with a normal women. When they look at a western women with tattoos, bad attitude and higher body count, they don't feel any love. No man can love modern Western women. Lot of rich arab men comes to US and date western women, but none of them have serious relationship with them , you know why ? Because these women are not wife meterial. Then they just go and marry women from their own culture because they are more reliable and trustworthy
@@jimmoriarty4530 Many of your aspects are very conservative, first of all there are women even if they have tattoos or a high bodycount can love you equally just as much. We live in a time where women dare to say or do what they want. Men are allowed to get tattoos or sleep with as many women as they want. Why not women?
And if I am honest, the Arabs have their own mentality and culture. That an Arab likes to have many women around him or have several wives is another matter.
The claim that no man would love such women is also false. I see many happy couples in western continents. In addition, many women have their own decision whether to have a family or to enjoy life. If the Arabs and the American women both get something out of it, then so be it. No one dictates how you want to live. Even in Asia, women are starting to think that way too. Many Asians also have tattoos and have a high bodycount. They enjoy their life the way they want.
@@jimmoriarty4530 I forgot something else, most men often go to Asia to maybe enjoy the culture. But also make love with some Asian women or get a bride from there. It is mostly women who do not speak English.
@@thuyvihoang9421 it's not about being conservative or liberal, its about what men want and what men are looking for in a partner. You call yourself a feminist and talk about equality. Are you willing to marry a poor man ? How many modern women and Feminists are ok with marrying poor men? Men have no problem with marrying someone who works for minimum wage if she is attractive and young. Why does women classify men based on our height and salary? Because thats what you want , however progressive you think you are, you are not able to do it. Same way men are territorial in nature, why would I risk my life for a woman I cannot say "she's mine". I heard women say "men are afraid of commitment" , have these women ever saw how men treat their cars and dogs. We can only be committed to someone or something we see as ours, you call it viewing you as property. We would die to protect whats our. We cannot love an only fans model, we cannot love a woman who got heiger body count, we simply cannot, however modern anybody claim they are , they just want your body and they will just leave you. Men who wants to use you might say whatever you want to hear to get what he wants to gets , thats it. After that he will go somewhere else.

I am Ashkenazim. People feeling that they need to talk about hate are weird. That talking about being brutal people is sad. That you can marry an Irish person. Is that what you want? I know what I am. Why are you here if you don't like it here? My mom's ancestry was from Salem, Massachusetts. I have been told many times that everyone is better than me. It is crazy. I hate everyone.
Nope nobody knows what you mean by ashkenazim

Oh man these theories are such a ridiculous stretch, useless
I won't call this garbage, but I am inclined to do so. You are neglecting many factors that cause current day non-Asian men to be attracted to Asian women. And, it's far from being a fetish. Nice word choice, by the way. Puts a negative spin on someone being attracted to features and behaviors of Asian women that seem to have been removed from the typical feminist Western Woman. It's also nice how you went back 150 years to help make your case while blending it into that horrible event in Georgia. It wasn't a case of Asian Fetishism. He said as much. As simplistically as possible, he frequented massage parlors because some of them do front prostitution. If it's known which ones do that, that's what where many men go. Second, if you look around at most massage spa's, the vast majority of the attendants are Chinese Asians. If they would have been Brazilians, he would have shot and killed 6 Brazilians as a way to deal with his psychosis. Presentations like this only take a very small problem or opinion and try to grow it into something that it isn't. I am Caucasian. I have had close relationships with 2 Chinese women and casual friendships developed with others when I taught medical ESL - who I found to be very attractive due to their kindness, their intelligence and their caring. And, I find Asian features to be attractive. They were both medical students. I think that one of the biggest positives that Caucasian men appreciate is how most Asian women do not feel the need to conquer, humiliate or bully their partner. I wouldn't take that from a male friend of mine. And, make no mistake, Asian women are no pushovers, either. I watched a friend get some severe payback he deserved from his Asian girlfriend. Here's a piece of advice for Western women... stop being bullies and supremacists and maybe you won't have to make up a word to cover the fact that men are finding you to not be worth the time and trouble. Many Asian women are worth it. There are many wonderful examples of inter-racial success stories here, if you care to look for them. How many thousands of Asian women marry American service members and happily raise a good family? How many Caucasian couples lovingly adopt Asian babies and give them a chance to have a good life? Sure, be negative and cause problems, or highlight the great good and use that as an example of what can, and is being done by good people. Somehow, I know what road you will go down. It's a shame, actually. Oh, and if you really want to help Asian women... you ought to dig into human trafficking. Especially who is doing it and how they do it.
Do you have asian men friends and do you stick up for them as well? Have you spoke up about asian hate crimes?
"Features and behaviors of Asian women that seem to have been removed from the typical feminist Western Woman." You sound like a incel
@not relevant facts
@@BG-hc1qm A lot of white men who fetishize Asian women often hate Asian men
@not relevant "against the idea of asian women getting fetishized and you're failing miserably". No he isn't. You have not made the case that they are.
Yet AW prefer WM smdh they accept the Oppressors over anything else
Great content. Also, great eighties style
And then, the next PBS video is "How Manga Took Over American Bookshelves." Manga comes from an Asian men's fixation on European women. Especially teenage or even pubescent forms. Always note the age and form of the girls in it. This video is based on "white man bad" and "women of color good" instead of "let's finally find out what's good about us all. " Critical Race Theory" is a tool to diminish one to raise up another. We should raise all - there's plenty of blame to go around so let's look for the good that IS IN EACH OF US.
Japan and China as well have beauty ideals surrounding diff eye colours and blonde hair. It stemmed from Japan during WW2 when they were modernizing which led them to bringing back many cultural ideals including the features of westerners (blonde hair, blue/green eyes etc) and it eventually melded into their culture ig. So no this isn’t an accurate comparison.
Also they brought up “white man bad” in a historical sense. This is because It’s impossible to address the history of orientalism in the west (primarily white run countries) and separate it from race. This is because the whole concept is based in race.
I personally don’t understand what this has to do with white supremacy but that doesn’t have to do with coloured women vs white men. That’s just the current climate of minority oppression.
Which yes is problematic, but that doesn’t erase many of the educational and important points brought up in the video.
Just acknowledge the bad of the segment without completely ignoring the good. People in the comments are taking this too personally. It’s not an insult to you.
Everything you said is wrong
@@LiKenun their animated bro they can have any hair color they want get over yourself
Miss your videos. Please make more.
Some good info, but some very problematic assumptions.
Fetishisation is the worse expression of it, but in my experience, the idea of racial preference in attraction is from the same roots. Even if it comes from a greater understanding and appreciation of a particular culture, seeing that as inherently in a person because of their "race" is still prejudice. I am not saying that dating preferences are evil, but that they share the same roots of projecting traits onto whole groups.
I think a more accurate way the video could’ve described it is that racial preference leads to prejudice/projection of traits which then results in fetishization.
Hmm let's also discuss about Whiteman being fetashise by Asian and blackwoman. Because I beleive Asian fetashization is not one way street. Both Asian girls and blackwoman also fetashise Whiteman. It's an issue of internal racism in Asian and black communities. I know this because my older 28 year old sister is obsessed with whiteboys. And all her life she only dated white man. Prove me wrong by writing down your comment down below.
Black women have nothing to do with this
