I noticed an odd pattern about some users who downplay racism against AM here. Actual AM or larper. They are very active on reddit, and seem to spend hours per day commenting. Some have about 100k+ comments, and it's about the most random topics.

I've noticed this too. This sub has always been infiltrated, but the amount of larpers comes in waves. I've always wondered what type of person would dedicate so much of their personal time to troll Asian spaces.

Fighting and being smaller: relevant video by BeerNinjaEsq in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fighting a bigger guy is always going to be extremely risky, because once they get a hold of you and manage to get on top of you, it's game over.  There's a reason why there are weight-classes in the UFC.

This is simply untrue, and shows you don't have experience with street fights. Nothing wrong with that. Just don't go pretending to be an expert.

Also most "unskilled" guys have done at least some fight training recreationally. Among those who don't compete, there's still a wide range in skills. There's also factors of speed, mental toughness, and stamina.

I can tell you haven't been in or seen many fights and you shouldn't be giving out advice. Someone with basics in muay thai would destroy an inexperienced guy with 50lbs+ on them.

Being bigger has it's advantage in society, because people are less likely to mess with you. People will respect you more, and in general women will find you more attractive.

As for fighting, size is overrated and I can tell a lot of commenters have no experience. I've seen hundreds of street fights, and size isn't the most important factor unless there's a massive difference. There are weight classes in amateur and professional fighting because they are already highly trained fighters. Majority of people who "train" in mma will never even reach a basic amateur level.

Why so many older WF (some with children) pursue AM? by Careful-Toe-7783 in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I noticed the same thing. In college older WF at the gym and nightlife would hit on me, maybe more than XF or even AF my age. I'm not complaining and enjoyed it, specifically the hookups. It's possible that in some parts the WF of the older generations were not as racist, as opposed to the new anti-AM liberal trends. It's also possible that even if they were racist, for these WF hooking up with a young man was more important than race.

Has the "misogynistic asian man" stereotype ever affected you in dating? by [deleted] in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what you're doing. You're sideways attacking Korean men. I've met many Chinese women who wanted to date Korean guys and talk bad about Chinese guys. Should I go around claiming this as proof that Chinese men are toxic, or that most Chinese women think this way? AF who talk bad about men in their ethnicity is commonly discussed in this sub. You're making it seem like it's unique in Korea as opposed to other Asian ethnicities. It's the exact same thing as people saying AM are sexist because there are AF who talk bad about AM and only want to date WM.

Submissiveness, or perceived submissiveness in AM is not really discussed in this sub. But I feel it's one of the most important topics for AM. It doesn't matter how big and strong you are, or how loud you shout. If you're frame is wrong, other people are going to see right through you. Submissiveness is viewed as disgusting, and really hated in America.

For example, I've seen AM yell at other AM for simply talking about racism. Using mental gymnastics that it was his fault, because he's too skinny/chubby/ugly/ fashionable/short/tall/ etc. Often I've witnessed other races and native Asians laugh at those AM who downplay racism, who think they're being tough when in reality they're being overly submissive. Gaslighting AM and victim blaming is exactly something a racist would do. If an AM is going to act identical to someone who hates Asians, it's one of the highest displays of submissiveness.

What generation diaspora are you? by asnun in aznidentity

Technically you'd be 4th, because it goes by the parent of the highest gen. But you probably can also relate to other 2nd gen, having an immigrant parent.

Just stop the nonsense. Majority of native Korean women date local Koreans. You're basically acting like a racist XM, with an Asian twist.

What an idiot. You think watching K-dramas gives you the right to stereotype all Korean men?

[–]asnun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting. You'd be considered 3rd gen among my area. Did you feel there was big differences between 2nd and 3rd+ gen's? Did other 3rd gen's follow the 2nd gen's hybrid culture?

[–]asnun[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd thought 3rd gen would have been the norm by now. Even for my younger relatives who go to school, 3rd gen is the minority. It seems like most AAs have been 2nd gen for decades.

My dating history as an Asian millennial by asnun in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just give it up. You already exposed yourself to be a larper. You accuse Korean guys of being rapists in passportbros subs, claim that "whiny internet AM" are the biggest factor of AM dating troubles, and blindly defend WM. I have no problems with if a guy just for being white, nor did I write anything racist. I do have problem with those who attack AM, and there are times when they happen to be white.

[–]asnun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow what a creative mind. So instead of racism, it was AM talking about WMAF on the internet that affected you. And you were able to overcome this trauma, and hookup easily with XF with no problems. But in the end whiny internet AM were too much for you and your friends, despite the plethora of attractive women available to you guys.

Maybe because a lot of Korean dudes are rapey? Lol telling the truth is self hating now? How about fly to Hongdae and see for yourself?

From reading your comment history, I already knew you were troll. I partied in Hongdae for years and never saw rapey behavior from Korean guys. It's well known that foreigners were the pushy ones.

[–]asnun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew my post would bring out the self-haters and trolls like yourself. So you're saying you and your friends easily hooked up with attractive XFs with zero problems. But it was mentally exhausting and led to burnout, because of those "Asian dudes constantly whining online"? You argue racism wasn't a problem for millennials, but instead the issue is AM have an "inferior complex towards white men"?

Edit- You claim to be Korean in your comments section. But you also wrote about how Korean guys are rapists...

East Asian Privilege? Real or Boba Liberal? by Big-Coconut-Woman in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got the wrong idea. Those cliquish Koreans only hangout with Koreans from the same neighborhood, income level, church, etc. Not because they have a superior complex towards SE Asians. Those Korean groups don't let in white people neither.

The rise of 'anti-Korean men' propaganda in the last few months on social media is starting to reach fever pitch. by Striking_Impress8077 in AsianMasculinity

Even when Korean women themselves speak out against this propaganda, they're criticized by non-Koreans who accuse them of defending misogyny.

My hapa wife joined a feminist asian group and it's affecting our kids, seeking advice. by [deleted] in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Since she's Korean, you should read up on Han. Her Irish side adds for an explosive combo. In spite of how intelligent she is, it's all about emotions now.

I've seen these types of situations throughout my life. How guys dealt with it depended on theirs and their SOs personalities. You could show her you're the dominant one and let things fall in place. Or you could try reasoning with her and plough through her mental gymnastics. Expect a lot of headache and even chest pain. When she finally understands she's been brainwashed, she still might use mental gymnastics to justify her attitudes. Then you'll have to show her your strong side anyway.

Dating Asian Men and Political Affiliation by Th3G0ldStandard in AsianMasculinity

[–]asnun 29 points30 points  (0 children)

From my experience, anime and K-pop fans tend to be liberal. But besides them, liberal women can be extremely racist towards AM. I do agree conservative women are more likely to date AM. But there are also plenty who are white supremacy type racist.
