when people say stereotypes exist for a reason
Stereotypes do exist for a reason…they allow for the dehumanization others under the pretense of categorization and simplification.

color·blinding: Asian Male stereotypes and such →
colorblinding.tumblr.com
the black male stereotype is that black niggers have big penis’s and thus are hypersexual.
they lust after sex no matter who from. and will get what they want no matter what.
the asian male stereotype is that asian men have small penis’s and thus desire less sex. they are emasculated.
but um both China and India have populations in the BILLIONS. you mean to tell me they are not having sex? or are people just sprouting from the dust?
well, stereotypes don’t make sense. some people use that shitty, they are based on truth shit. no. and yea, i’ve seen small black dicks and big asian dicks. people are people. races don’t all come in one shape or size. white supremacy just lies to people and tells us they are the only ones who can vary in any way shape or form.
The Asian stereotype is historically constituted. When Chinese men first began coming to the country as sojourners and later as indentured servants and plantation workers, most of them did not bring their wives due to financial reasons. As the numbers began to boom, the American government enacted a series of laws that made sure Chinese women could not enter the country (with the exception of Chinese sex slaves who were smuggled into the nation). They also enacted laws that stated any Chinese man who married an American (white) woman would be convicted of miscegenation, and any American woman who married a Chinese man would lose her citizenship. It was in this way that they prevented Chinese men not only from having sex with their wives, but from having any kind of sex at all. Add in the fact that the “Orientals” as they were known during that time had different cultural values that made them seem more “passive” and “submissive” — and voila, you have the recipe for some ridiculous bullshit notion that Asian men are somehow feminine and not as manly as non-Asians.
I could talk about this for a long time, but that’s pretty much the beginning jist of it.
There’s also the historical context of that when (male) Chinese immigrants first arrived in the U.S., they generally had one of two employment options: work on the Transcontinental Railroad (which was dangerous and had a high mortality rate), or work for wealthy families doing “women’s” work (being nannies, doing the laundry, etc.). Needless to say, quite a few chose the latter.
Planned Parenthood is on Tumblr!
Planned Parenthood is excited to be launching our new Tumblr that’s all about sexual and reproductive health – bodies, birth control, relationship issues, “is it normal for this to do this?” type things. In the coming weeks and months we’ll be sharing what we know, answering questions, and just… tumblring.
We hope you like it! And we hope it helps.
FUCK YEEEEAAAAAHHHHH
“If men were angels, no Government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on Government would be necessary. In framing a Government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this : you must first enable the Government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.”
—Hannah Arendt, On Revolution
