Sad But True

When stereotypes die: apparently, Asian dicks aren't necessarily small, but may be wishful thinking on white mens' part:

Perhaps Westerners see in the Asian man — and by extension his penis — what they expect to see, what in some ways they need to see. Let’s be honest: many Western men derive enormous comfort and a good measure of delight in the myth of the small Asian penis. Racial Schadenfreude is why the myth endures, and why it will continue to do so. Too many non-Asian men get an immeasurable ego lift from it.

"But Xmastime", you say in the voice of Craig “Ironhead” Heyward from those soap commercials (RIP), “isn't this a good excuse to re-post an old Xmastime riff about Asian dicks?"

Sigh. Yes, people. Yes, it is.

All this flashed to me this morning on the train when I saw a young, pretty Asian girl sitting quietly next to her Asian man. It occurred to me the fascination society has always had for the size of the phallus - big ones having some sort of animal hold over women.

But then I thought about the stereotypes of each race's women in relationship to said race's stereotyped dick size. Black men supposedly have the biggest dicks, and yet black women are notorious for not being demure at all when it comes to their men. If I had a nickel for every time I watched a black woman screaming at her bf/husband about not taking any of his shit, I'd prolly have about $43.20 by now. Meanwhile Asian dudes supposedly have the little dicks, yet their women are notorious for being shy, shrinking and deferential towards them. Interesting.
