Phil Yu and his Angry Asian Man blog and Youtube channel are excellent! In fact, when I first read the title of this article, I thought it was going to be about Phil Yu.

Man purse? Really? Who the actual fuck cares? I often carry around what may be classified as a man purse if the setting is too formal for a string back pack and if you think less of me because of that then you are unworthy of my time. Also way to enforce gender stereotypes. If you are consistent with your logic you…
Jesus Christ, and to think love is colorblind. It isn't.
There's no need to think like that.
I have been to Asia and what you described is bullshit, the only people i saw that were ugly were the white (mainly American) tourists. I feel sorry for the Asian men who have deal with your racist ugly ass.
So a guy who puts octopi in vaginas, a guy who plays gangster rap in his restaurants, and a guy giving douchie pickup advice equates to all Asian men being angry?
Since I am referenced in the article, I'm not addressing the controversy by Choe so much as how the author is roping me in as somehow complicit to it.
I would say that it's probably true for a lot of guys. I was like that a while ago.
Whenever the topic of Asian men comes up (in terms of dating, power, culture, etc.) I always feel like I'm walking a very thin line, as an Asian woman. On one hand, I want more equality and respect and less emasculation and racism, and I know there are wonderful Asian men out there, but whenever the conversation…
Perspective from an Asian guy:
Hey, I understand that as well - it's why I bother to read the articles on Jez in the first place. Some of the writers can be very inflexible in their thinking, though, and frequently see comments people make in the worst possible light.
You're getting out an awfully broad brush there working from a very small number of men.
Yeah, I'm off to somewhere else. This place sucks. It isn't feminism. It's a clickbait, bitchfest, in which angry people levy broad generalizations against an entire sex, and an entire continent. Very progressive. Very, very progressive.
Phoenix, what you're glossing over is that one of the biggest perpetuators of Asian male stereotypes is Asian women themselves.
"I think that women are straight up horrible on that front when it comes to height and race."
Jezebel routinely condemns men for not being open to all races of women. Here is a man from Austin who is open to all races of women except black women and he was lambasted by Jezebel and the commenters for that. Jezebel constantly espouses appreciation for all body types. I think that women are straight up…
Welcome to Jezebel, where no one misses an opportunity to shit on people of color.
All men can be good or bad regardless. But I never understood why some women never found Asian men to not be sexy? Sucks for them. My current boyfriend is Korean and I adore him very very much. I know plenty of women who would LOVE to date Asian men.
you don't think old white guys are sexist as fuck?
You've outlined a problem. "Asian men have an image of laughable asexuality and so some have become misogynist and, in the case of David Choe, criminal." Do you have a constructive suggestion for Asian males to overcome their image of impotence and enjoy a fuller participation in a sexual culture without becoming a…
