Yellow Fever: Dating as an Asian Woman →
People with Yellow Fever don’t want to get to know Asian women. In fact, I would venture to say that they don’t care very much about Asian women at all. They are more concerned with the idea of us— the notion that we are adorable little kawaii girls or demure lotus flowers or geisha-like sexual objects. Their attraction to Asian women relies on stereotypes that turn us into exotic sexual objects...

oh here we go again
Can it ever just be about the oppressed? No, obviously not. You gotta whine about the allies. Everything is about being trying to be sympathetic towards people with privilege. They got the power and freedom of choice, yet we also gotta reward them for trying to be decent human beings? What else do they want?
I’m sorry if I can’t praise you when you’re being an asshole and then...

WTF? We reward children all the time for doing what is right. It’s called POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT.
This self-righteous sentiment is just counter-productive. It disempowers those people who go out on a limb to do what is right; who go against their upbringing, their family’s values, the society in which they live in order...

STFU And Listen, White People: Why I Sometimes... →
stfuandlistenwhitepeople:
This is specific racism I’m talking about here is anti-Black racism and appropriation.
Although I am a PoC, I am not Black. I cannot adequately argue for Black people. If I know enough about the topic being argued, I will contribute, but most of the time, I cannot or choose not to because of two…
This is a shoutout to all my fellow Asians: YOU ARE NOT BLACK....

Selchie Productions: Cultural Appropriation. →

hammerofthewitches:
I believe people are becoming too sensitive. There is hardly a culture which is truly and purely distinct from all others; every race, tradition, religion, myth, creed, sex expression, and fashion in the vastness of humanity at some point has met and bled together, especially in race and tradition! I, on my mother’s side, am descended from...

lol so easy to cry abuse when black people talk...
“In general” (as in, my parents did this, my friends’ parents did this, and I’m sure there are families out there who DON’T do this, but it’s pretty prevalent), non-white folks occasionally smack their kids when they get out of line. My parents did, and I never once considered it abuse. They smacked me when I was being disrespectful and there was no time to give...

The Daily What can always kiss my ass.
Like I already said on Twitter, instead of condemning Rihanna for forgiving Chris Brown, we need to light a fire under our society that stresses that she does, and don’t give me that “But, Jay Z has never!” because…

Sometimes I just feel deeply ashamed of the Asian community for its rampant anti-blackness. Yeah, fuck solidarity. Keep getting all the scraps you can from the white man’s table, I guess.
