I think it means HE searched for you! And was creeping on your profile. For example, I have noticed if you look at someone’s Facebook page more than once and just type the beginning of their name, they show up automatically. Even if you’re not friends.

Photo of said 13 cats would be amazing to see...

I see where you’re coming from but as Jenn3 points out, being a “sexy exotic chick” is not something to “get” or want or desire. It’s not the same as being seen as a romantic interest (which implies mutual love and respect). We certainly don’t have that “over” Asian American men. It’s just another harmful stereotype…

Yes I tried to make my references to Asian American actors gender neutral, to imply that the problem concerns both men and women! But certainly yes with Asian American men they have long suffered from emasculating stereotypes. “Selfie” starring John Cho was such a breath of fresh air and then the series was canceled…

Anonymous producer: “If you’re going to wait around to find the perfect actress who is a quarter Asian, and not just a quarter Asian but a quarter Hawaiian Asian, you will never cast your movie.”

Absolutely. Thank you for reading this experiment correctly! I posted this comment on the main thread but I am sure it won’t be seen (still stuck in the greys). I thought you might share my sentiments. Here it is:

People don’t seem to understand what this video proves: public space always has been and still is a male space.

There are organizations. They aren’t crying out in the dark either. Several organizations and a group of mothers of the black men shot to death by police met with President Obama. It went all the way to the top. Nothing has changed and it doesn’t surprise me.

Talking back is not a crime. It’s self-preservation. It’s instinct.

I think some of those women look “ambiguous” actually. I guess it’s subjective... It seems that Allison Ng’s ability to “pass” as white was not central to the story however, and the fact that she was 1/4 Hawaiian and 1/4 Chinese was central. She touts her pride in her heritage and how she understands all this stuff…

I’m so surprised and happy to see this post! Djuna Barnes deserves to be as well known as Eliot or Woolf or Joyce. She struggled a lot to be recognized for her literature or to be taken seriously at all. Unlike all aforementioned modernists, Djuna didn’t have a steady income and had to take on writing gigs and be a…

It upsets me that he doesn’t address the main problem which is that Asian Americans are never cast as the LEAD (much less the romantic lead!) in Hollywood films. What a prime opportunity this film could have been to showcase such talent, when so few opportunities exist in the first place. And (half/mixed) Asian…

I also thought of: Olivia Munn, Devon Aoki, Kristin Kreuk, Hana Mae Lee, Sandrine Holt, Maggie Q, Marguerite Moreau...

I heard from an acquaintance that back in the 70s or 80s, they started developing male birth control. Apparently it was safer and more effective than the pill. But men didn’t like the idea of being made “impotent” and less “manly” so the idea was scrapped and never went to market.

LOTR was one example I pulled out of a hat. I am not an expert on the books/films. I’ve never read the books. This is the first time I’ve ever heard about its Anglo-Saxon/Germanic roots.

I wish there would be some kind of accountability on their behalf. I’m not saying they should get the death sentence. But at the very least a public apology for having agreed to these awful working conditions and being part of a system that exploited (still exploits) human capital.

And I said, “okay great!” That’s all well and dandy. I know genetics can do all sorts of cool things. I just noticed you were commenting a lot, a lot and in great detail about how someone like Emma Stone could look 1/2 Asian. To me I understood that as defending the choice to cast her in this role.

Okay thanks for clearing that up. I was getting defensive about all the comments on genetics and how Emma Stone could “look” 1/2 Asian. It’s like, if Emma Stone were 1/4 Chinese and 1/4 Hawaiian, it would be great! The fact that she has blonde hair and blue eyes isn’t actually the issue. As it stands (another…

I was thinking about the many half-Asians I know, who all have brown hair and brown or hazel eyes.
