Around the time of entering the "teenage years" I became aware of Asian fetishes. Yellow Fever. I am half Japanese, but still frequently get hit on by guys with Yellow Fever. I have the innocent Asian look with large breasts. I can't even count how many times I've heard some comment about how "you're rare, Asian with big boobs." It kind of is like I got double-screwed. Haha.
When I was about 12 or so I was on my father's computer looking up Jonathan Taylor Thomas websites, printing off photos... you know... teeny bopper obsessive stuff. I came across porn in my father's computer (VOMIT!) and it was Asian porn. My dad is white. Mom is the Japanese one. My father's wife prior to my mother was Asian, too. All the women my father has dated since my parents' divorce... ASIAN. I am a product of an Asian fetish! Gross.
I met this guy through a friend two and half years ago. He was dating this really pretty half Korean girl. The guy and I would talk everyday, and he did not hide the fact he loved Asian girls. Stupid me just enjoyed the attention of this person simply because he was the most gorgeous guy I had ever laid eyes on. Before and during my "new friendship" I was dating a really nice guy, and one day in the car I was telling him about this new friend I made who had Yellow Fever like no other. And he responded, I quote, "I don't understand why guys have Asian fetishes. No offense." And I just laughed about it. A year later, I came across his old livejournal and nearly all his interests were asian, asian, asian. Hmmm... Haha. Sick.
So why DO men have these Asian fetishes? Are Asians hot? Is it the idea of Asian women stereotypically stay at home and just cater to their men and hosuehold? Obedience? The look of innocence? Is it just pure sexual desire because Asian women are thought to has smaller/tighter vaginas? I've heard all of these as explanations for Yellow Fever.
I can't say that Asian fetishes offend me. I think I laugh about them more than anything. I would hope I don't end up spending my life with a guy who has Yellow Fever, because I guess in a sense it's a little unnerving, but... in the same regard, nearly everyone has a "type" they are usually attracted to, so what makes it any different? I've taken a bit of "revenge" and made it a bit of a joke about how I love Irishmen. It's all in the name of fun until...

I remember reading this article a year ago or so... can a fetish really get that intense?! Perhaps there is a thin lines between attraction, obsessive, and mentally insane.
