Guy Wonders if his Attraction to Asian Women is Based on Racist Paternalism.

"

Regular white Anglo-Saxon guy Joe Outhwaite has been racking his brain for the past few weeks trying to work out whether his particular attraction to specifically South East Asian women is based on his own true subjective perceptions of beauty or a suppressed and hidden desire to dominate the ‘other’.

His musings have attracted the attention of commentators across society.
‘This is just another example of white male Western supremacy repressing what he perceives to be the exotic and traditional other’ said noted feminist Gloria Roadshaw. ‘Outhwaite’s attraction to South East Asians is simply a refusal to accept the Western woman’s newfound self-determination: the Asian fetish is simply a longing to have control over a physically and mentally weaker female’.

However, Roadshaw’s opinion has been disputed by Asian Women’s Advocate Ame Carrera. ‘That feminazi point of view is entrenched in a racist and stereotyped vision of what Asian women are like, as if our nature was to be submissive and serve the interests of Western men without thoughts of our own!’

‘Yeah, I just don’t know what to think now’ said a confused Outhwaite after hearing of the controversy his inner-battle has garnered. ‘At first I was leaning towards thinking it was just me having a particular attraction to women of South East Asian extraction, but then I thought that maybe sexual attraction where race is a factor is necessarily racist. But it’s not like I’m not attracted to other races too. Besides, doesn’t current anthropological study consider race to be a shallow and inaccurate classification? There’s no such thing, really’.

Outhwaite will continue pondering his attitudes to sexual attractiveness at least until this Saturday, when he will be in ‘pervert’s row’ on Asians Night at popular strip club the Kitten. Apparently this is for research purposes.

Intriguing. Both your comments, Sunny.

What exactly do you mean by 'at least he wonders' ?
That could be taken a few ways.

Glad to have you back, though I'm sure it won't be long before another psychopath steals you away :P
