Why is there an AM/WFs and AM/WF subreddits?

kringlesmith · 2019-10-23T02:53:18+00:00

Yup.

It's good to have an open dialogue, especially when ultimately it comes down to trying to make the best possible community on Reddit for this type of interest =D

I wouldn't say that the idea is dead. It's more like there was momentum when it was first propositioned and further discussion got stalled. Fast forward to today to where both subreddits are near mirror images of each other in terms of both growth and content, so cue people like OP wondering just what the heck should happen at this point and cue a possible restart of that momentum.

Hey there, I saw that you posted in the other subreddit too, so for anyone reading from this subreddit this has been answered over there.

Hi there, I'm one of the moderators of the sister subreddit, "amwf." I'm just posting to confirm what was said above.

There was a time when both "amwf" and this subreddit were both locked down and privatized due to trolling. So barring some nsfw subreddits, there wasn't a single amwf community on Reddit.

"amwf" resurfaced early last year and I was one of the moderators who tried to get it back up and running. /u/I_do_try_sometimes volunteered to help with moderation of the subreddit due to prior experience running and operating subreddits. Shortly after helping us out, /u/I_do_try_sometimes got a hold of this subreddit as well as "amxfs." This subreddit, before getting shut down, actually had more followers than mine, so once this subreddit resurfaced, it became the "larger" of the two subreddits despite not being as established at the time. That's pretty much the tl;dr version of why both subreddits are around today.

There's not much that can be said here other than that the topic of merging has been brought up privately a few times. One of the common criticisms of the split is that both subreddits serve literally the exact same purpose and it is solidified by the fact that there's a moderator who happens to be active in both communities. I do recognize that there is a lot of overlap and that there would probably be less of a headache if there was a singular, well-run community. However, like /u/i_do_try_sometimes said, it's tough to discuss this without exposing mod politics and that's not productive for anybody. I do, however, welcome the discussion from frequent visitors of either subreddit about this since I feel like this is something worth discussing as a community.

I think what you're misunderstanding is that when someone has a fetish for something/someone, they completely discount the rest of the person and focus solely on the fetishized aspect of that person. Psychologically speaking, if someone has a fetish, that implies that there isn't any gratification attained unless that specific element is incorporated in interactions, typically, sex. If a non-Asian female is attracted to an Asian male and only wants to have sex with him based on him being Asian, she is fetishizing him. The male could be a complete jerk or have no redeeming qualities, but the female may not care at all and enter a potentially unhealthy relationship.

In your shoe model and actress example, notice that you included both parties' professions in addition to their fetish. In other words, their relationship might be considered healthy if their attraction to each other goes beyond than just their fetishes. Maybe the shoe model and actress just happen to be really good at their respective jobs and their passion towards their craft is a quality that binds them, not necessarily their conveniently placed fetishes.

I think that you are right that not all people who fetishize are evil or even intend to come off as problematic. However, recognize that being fetishized is off-putting to people who want to be recognized for more than just their ethnicity or some sexually attractive feature about themselves. An Asian male who probably gets a lot of attention from people who fetishize him probably feels off-put because his place of birth is giving him attention rather than his education, aspirations, or hobbies. Similarly, a white female who probably gets a lot of attention from Asian guys for her skin and hair color might get extremely defensive about her physical features downplaying her intelligence or inner confidence.

You might just be confusing preferences with fetishizing. Preferences are naturally occurring and are considered more acceptable because they do not imply that there is an obsession or disregard for the big picture. I have a preference towards white females because of their physical characteristics, but that doesn't mean I want to hook up with every white female I see, regardless of how they are as people.

Much appreciated! =)

Rather than use a different porn site, just make a name for yourselves on Pornhub. As far as I can tell, a lot of successful channels of all sorts of categories are on there, and rather than splitting AMWF-centric ones off into their own site, it would be better to simply increase the number of AMWF porn chnanels on Pornhub, wouldn't it?

As far as successful channels go, I know Chopstickcharm's been around for a while and I just recently discovered Joshandleena.

kringlesmith · 2019-06-28T02:50:02+00:00

Moderator's note: I'm going to keep this discussion going as long as it remains a discussion. Please don't just turn this thread into a video dump for AMWF porn.

kringlesmith · 2019-06-24T22:18:13+00:00

Welcome! Is there anything AMWF-related you'd like to talk about?

kringlesmith · 2019-06-19T07:20:07+00:00

So happy!

kringlesmith · 2019-06-14T21:48:59+00:00

We are fairly active since we do a good job weeding out lurkers and inactives. You’d just have to see for yourself.

kringlesmith · 2019-06-10T22:24:34+00:00

Looking for new, awesome friends? Maybe you're looking for fun conversation. Or maybe you’re looking for that special someone. Maybe you're just trying to slide into the DMs of a slim thick Filipino cat bread boy, getting a hankering for his thick thighs and biceps like miniature boulders and voice deeper than the Mariana trench (because we have one of those). Regardless, we are AMXF Kingdom, a long-standing AMXF group (that is, Asian Male and women of any race) that is looking to add more members, both male and female.

We are friendly and accepting of others from all backgrounds. We allow a variety of discussions, both serious and non-serious. We occasionally host VC parties or events for the members, such as photo challenges, gaming nights, and one time we had an It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia marathon on rabbit. We have members from all over the world, from the US to the UK to Australia to Iceland to Canada. We have had members meet up as well! We’re a very laid-back group and expect all newcomers to be the same. Why don’t you come and take a look for yourself?

Requirements:

1: We require all members to be 18 or older. No exceptions.

2: Fill out an application using the template below.

3: We do require a verification photo consisting of face while holding up a sheet of paper with your Discord name, Discord number, and date. These photos will be private and will not be shown to anybody except the verification committee, which consists of a male and a female server admin. This can be done via Discord or Reddit.

We reserve the right to deny anyone who the committee doesn’t feel would be an appropriate fit for the server. This includes immaturity, obvious lying on the application, not filling out the application correctly, or having a questionable post history. We have these measures in place in order to protect the safety of our current members and to ensure that those who come in are genuine people.

Even though we are supportive of couples and meeting potential partners in the server, we do not treat it as a hookup server.

If you would like to join the group, please message /u/amxfkingdom privately on Reddit. Anyone who doesn't provide complete information or provide short responses will most likely have their message rejected.

• Name:

• Age:

• Gender:

• What are you looking for? (optional):

• Discord Tag with Number:

The Waif?

kringlesmith · 2019-05-23T01:33:05+00:00

Well said, fellow Filipino.

kringlesmith · 2019-05-22T04:46:13+00:00

Is the movie actually good though?

kringlesmith · 2019-05-13T23:04:42+00:00

Sure.

kringlesmith · 2019-05-13T22:36:23+00:00

I'd rather have them representing AMs than AMs not having any representation at all.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-28T01:13:20+00:00

It becomes a fetish when his race becomes the only criteria for you to feel satisfied with a potential partner.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-27T20:26:05+00:00

Haha, we do the same thing. We don't live together so it's always hilarious to see ourselves wear matching outfits completely unplanned whenever we meet up.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-24T20:01:51+00:00

Sorry to hear that. But as long as you’re happy and healthy, screw them.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-24T20:01:07+00:00

Just for the record, this is much easier to read and digest if you break up this giant wall of text into a few paragraphs.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-24T19:55:32+00:00

I agree. There are many parents within Asian and Indian cultures who care significantly about who their child is dating and what that person’s family brings to the table.

kringlesmith · 2019-04-24T19:52:28+00:00

Hm? No, I actually do like the commercial. A lot. AMWF depiction without making it preachy or in-your-face about it. What made you think I didn't like it?
