Corysilk 16 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Of course there are submissive gay asian men but why don't they give dominant masculine men representation in the media too? Every other gay group gets duel representation except for them. It does happen in real life ya know...asian men portraying the dominant role in a relationship. Yet this is all we get. (no hate, I think they are uwu too!) And another thing, why don't they ever show full asian gay couples? They always have to be paired with white guys or a "bbc"...its weird.

PARADISE.MP3 3,444 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Because Hollywood still has that ignorant mindset that majority of Asian men are submissive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corysilk 16 Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 depends on what media are you consuming, I dont see Asian gay men portrayed submissive anywhere. I guess I'm talking about western media. The closest we had to a masculine asian was the guy on how to get away with murder, and even tho he wasn't ultra fem he still turned out to be a bottom who doubted his sexiness when compared to his "hot" white boyfriend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walmart Goddess 710 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 And another thing, why don't they ever show full asian gay couples? They always have to be paired with white guys or a "bbc"...its weird. probably because western media is centered around white people (which is natural as they are the racial majority in these countries).

MineMuses 6,687 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Who has custody of the baby? I could learn to be a step daddy...I’m pretty sure Edison cause he never had the baby until after the divorce Judging from my previous post, they must have split up sometime around 2015 or before Frederic was never born until 2017 But to answer ur question, Grey’s Anatomy has this so I guess it’s a step in the right direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capital 855 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 In media, and so much more within gay dating circles. The fetishization of non-White gay men where they are robbed of personal agency in sexual choice galled me so much as a teen. The situation even has a large number of literature out on it.

tiny.watermelon 520 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Yes it does bother me and is a stupid stereotype every people i have talked believe about asian men in general. I think this is bc they seem to pay more attention to their physics and overall look from what i see, also bc they are "more skinnier than other men". Things that are supposedly bad and for weaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I could understand if their was a huge age difference or a perceived age difference. For example this was a bit creepy until I found out they were the same age.
