By:
In this Office Hours episode for AAPI Heritage Month, we’re unpacking the sexualization and desexualization of Asian people, from the stereotype of the “submissive Asian woman” to why Asian men have historically been portrayed as less desirable in Western culture.
We discuss where these stereotypes came from, how media and history shaped them, the impact of fetishization in dating culture, Filipino taxi dance halls in 1920s California, interracial dating panic, K-pop, anime, and why attraction is never socially neutral.
