I have quite a few Asian guy friends, and many of them gripe about this. Also I can't get over the number of women (Asian, white, whatever) that say that they don't date Asian men. I legit think this is a real thing that disproportionately affects Asian guys.
Pretty easy to go on dating sites rn and see things like "no darkies" or other wording that makes it clear they don't date any minority so it's not just Asian guys.
yeah there are plenty of racist americans that are just blanket xenophobic. But there does seem to be a significant cohort that is pretty open to dating (or worse fetishizes) black/brown men but really don't like asians, presumably tied up in racial/gender stereotypes.
Yeah, despite the racism against black men, they are still viewed as sexual, albeit in a more "primal" and "animalistic" way which is rife with its own issues.
