Asians are the most sought after ethnic minority for gay guys

[whatupwiki100]

Sorry for the ambiguous wording there. When I write "Asians", I mean East Asians. When I write "Asia", I mean East Asia (and maybe South Asia).

But I don't consider being stereotyped as "feminine" to be a negative thing in gay culture. Historically, both East Asian and Indian cultures idealized gays as feminine.

Modern-day European and Asian beauty standards also promote femininity in gay people. Being "feminine" is a big part of being "gay". I'd say the same is true in Canada and Australia too.

I don't think the idea of being "feminine" is racist for gays outside the United States. I would think that being "feminine" was the IDEAL for gays.

Outside America? I have no idea.

Inside America, my experience in the gay community, both here in Seattle and even more so in other cities I've visited, reflects what [MENTION=19889]Radbot42[/MENTION] said. Not that when I was single I wasn't able to find plenty of bed partners, but a lot of those partners want to keep it a secret so they won't be shunned by their friends or made fun of.

I don't get why they would be shunned? Who would shun someone because they were dating an Asian person? I can understand someone doing that in Black culture, but in White/Indian/Asian culture?

I'm certain that East Asians are well-stereotyped in nearly every country on earth, except maybe Muslim countries. You'd more likely be shunned for being gay, than for hanging out with an East Asian person.
