This is my first post beside my introduction. I don’t know if I posted this under the right forum. I hope I’m not too far away out there.
Lately I have read a lot of personal blogs and listen to a radio programme about the Swedish view of Asian guys. The name of the radio programme was if you translate it to English “mother Chinese, father Japanese and poor little child”. The summery of the programme was that the Asian guys are viewed as nerds, small and tiny, with small dicks and therefore with no sexual ability and it is ok to make fun of Asians. The radio programme brought up a feature from a Swedish TV show. The TV hosts asked around in Stockholm (the capital of Sweden) if there were any girls/women that had ever fantasized about having sex with an Asian guy. The result was quite depressing. Every girl/woman said no, the reason differ from that Asian are small or that they are from another race. The radio programme also brought up the issue about why it’s ok in Sweden to make fun of Asian. In Sweden it’s not OK to say something negative about black, Jewish or/and Arabic people but it seems quite OK to make fun of Asian. If you say something negative about black people then you are a racist but if you say something negative about Asians that’s OK. Please watch these commercials. These were aired not so long ago on regular Swedish channels. I know that you guys can’t understand anything what they say but I think you get the picture of how it’s OK to make fun of Asian here in Sweden.


As I told you guys before, we in Sweden can buy candy named “Kina Puffar”. I think it’s a scurrilous portrait of an Asian guy. And that is OK to sell it here in Sweden, but I don’t like it.
I have read and heard from a few adopted Korean guys here in Sweden about how they feel about this. They feel unattractive in the eyes of Swedish girls. They feel as they are treated as if they didn’t exist. Because of that they want to move back to Korea. I feel it too. In my entire live I have felt unattractive in the eyes of the Swedish girls because of the Swedish view of Asian. I have had a few girlfriends but only girls from Asia. Ok, I’m quite shy of me too, but if you don’t feel attractive it makes much harder to try to pick up girls. That’s the main reason why want to move back to Korea.
I want to hear how you think about this issue. How is the situation in USA? Is it the same as we have it here in Sweden?
I’m sorry that my English is quite bad. I hope you guys understand what I mean and manage to overlook my poor English. Once again I’m sorry.

One mentor told me that "In order to be successful, you must surround yourself around people who positively support you and share the same caliber of expectations/standards you set for yourself."

Sageliness aside, it's helped me develop into a much more independent and forward thinking person... mainly because I removed myself from my originally racist hometown and re-rooted to an accepting and extremely chill place.

Trust me, I've been exposed to racism, prejudice, and other nasty things made in an attempt to break the core of who I was.

Who I am now is a mass of iron. Unbreakable. Unfaltering. Rocksteady.

You either let it break you, or you stand up and BREAK it.

Rock on man.

One final edit:
How we are treated by others is a choice imho. I know for one thing: I'm not a walking mat, and never will be.
