Maybe my classmate didn’t mean to cast a racial slur at me. After all, we were five. But this is far from one isolated story. The umbrella blanket term of— Asian American Pacific Islander — conceals the fact that Asian American women of different ethnicities are impacted by fetishization, hypersexualization, and othering in very unique ways.

In east Asia, that look isn’t exotic. In the western world it is. How is this a problem?
It can impact women and girls everywhere. Men now have a green light to play out their fetish in women's places world wide. And told to accept it.
