Conversations about racial stereotypes might not pop up in certain social circles in America, but they do in mine. Plus, I am a Korean American woman dating a blond, blue-eyed, German-blooded man born and raised in North Dakota to a baseball-obsessed, Baptist, Republican family.

There is only one country whose men and only men I try to avoid: Germany. What have German men ever done to deserve this? A friend of mine who has been in a long term relationship with a German man recently told me that if she wanted to have sex with him, she would write him an email informing him of her desire and the two would take it from there. I wish I was making this up. Have you ever tried to talk dirty with a German? If romance is dead, it was a German man that killed it. From the offer of money for sex via Tinder to online dating messages consisting of cringe-worthy detailed descriptions of sexual acts, the perpetrators were always the same: German men.

Wheezing Your Ass Off. White Male Asian Female.

An Asian fetish is a strong sexual or romantic preference for persons of Asian descent. The term generally refers to people of East or Southeast Asian descent, though may also encompass those of South Asian descent. The fetishization of East Asians by people of other ethnicities is sometimes described by the derogatory term yellow fever. In countries like the United States, women of primarily East Asian origin are often stereotyped as subservient, passive, and quiet. This portrayal persists today, along with the idea of Asian particularly East and Southeast Asian women—and, to a lesser extent, men—being exotic and submissive. In the afterword to the play M. Butterfly , the writer David Henry Hwang , using the term "yellow fever", a derogatory pun on the disease of the same name , discusses " Caucasian " men with a "fetish" for east Asian women.
