And yes they absolutely do it. What's really heartbreaking is when leftists do it

      I've noticed it happens quite a bit. It seems like for all the talk of "wokeness" and "anti-asian hate" they still have the western beauty standard brainworms.

        Are you saying Asian women who date white men are doing so because they believe Asian men aren’t masculine, and thus she’s a hypocrite?

        That seems to be what you’re saying but this post is confusing to me and others.

        Just to be clear you can be against racist stereotypes of Asian men and not be in a relationship with one… :very-intelligent:

          this shitshow should have gone in /poc if at all but when a significant minority of your racial community exhibits this kind of hypocritical behavior you learn to be less charitable with your initial assumptions about people, at least wrt racism

            Her statement should stand for itself regardless of who she’s currently dating, and a picture of her with a guy doesn’t even mean she’s dating them. There’s no evidence being presented that she’s fetishizing whiteness by either dating a white guy or taking a photo with one.

            There’s no need to be charitable or not like what is this take she can date who she wants and make correct social commentary regardless.

              the template is garbage, there are much cleaner dunks plastered all over tiktok depicting actual white supremacists.

              the problem here is not the accuracy of the commentary, it is the consistency of the ideology on display. which is why the usage of an ambiguous picture of asian lady + white dude made for a shitty template

        You can try to debrainwormize yourself off oppressive beauty standards AND still end up dating people who somewhat fit within those standards. It just would make it not the main reason you're dating them.

        Besides, the picture on the right is just them hugging. There is no indication that they're in a relationship or anything, unless you think that close physical contact is something that can only happen between people who are sexually attracted to each other.
