Asian women: lady in the street, freak in the bedroom
CVK
(Spotted this over at Angry Asian Man.) Just in case you were worried that the geisha girl/dragon lady dichotomy that exists in popular perceptions of Asian women was fading away, along comes Maxim magazine, reassuring us that it’s stronger than ever. From an interview with ex-madam to the stars, Heidi Fleiss:
My buddy and I have a $100 bet on this one: What’s a more popular request among guys who pay for sex—a threesome or an Asian chick? —Sal, 20, New York City
I would say it’s 50-50. Asians are really hot right now. The standard thinking about Asian women is that they’re great because they’re submissive and they do anything, and there might be something to that. But beyond the whole submissive stereotype—and I know plenty of Asian women who don’t fit that profile at all—Asian women always seem to have really great skin. That’s part of the attraction. They look very clean and presentable in public. Guys want a girl they can bring to a charity function, then take home and get her down on all fours and do the nastiest things they ever thought of. Classy on the town and a porno star in the bedroom—that’s what guys are after.

I don’t expect more than this from [ugly-ass] Heidi Fleiss.

Maxim is appealing to its fanbase - but I can’t decide if that’s 14 year old boys or 45 year old dirty old men…
Maybe it’s both…

I think we should bombard them with letters to the editor. It’s amazing how these magazines can simultaneously put women (of all colors) on a pedestal and demean them at the same time. The racism of it adds a whole new layer… It disturbs me that they would add fuel to the post-frat boy mentality. Watch, next month they have an article on the best date-rape drugs… Of course, Asian women wouldn’t need to be drugged, since “we so horny”… Morons…

“Stupid White Men” - do they just sit around and come up with porno fantasies and racial fetishes all day long? They literally have one for every kind of woman!

After throwing up on my keyboard… I’m not sure Maxium puts women on a pedestal. It seems every women on the cover is hardly dressed and they just love to work the whole “exotic” label around women of color. I love how Heidi says, “Asians are really hot right now…” in the same way that someone would say, “Victorian blouses are really hot right now..”

Ugh… how disgusting.
However, has anyone ever been on myspace.com? If you have then im sure you have heard of Tila Tequila, the girl with the most friends and page views on myspace. Funny that were talking about the fetishization of Asian woman when you see girls like Tila Tequila (whose Asian) flaunting themseles all over the net. Shes so disgusting, look on her page to see for yourself.

I read this last month, because I was bored at a friend’s house — and was furious for about 2 weeks. This was actually an exerpt from Heidi’s new advice column in the magazine. So I assume that she has a permanent gig with Maxim. She is clearly an idiot and any guy that wants advice from her is most likely challenged as well.
