The Backlash Against Sunisa Lee’s Interracial Relationship Is All Too Familiar to Asian Women

“They wouldn’t really engage with my arguments, or the work and advocacy I was doing,” Huang told Jezebel. “The first thing I saw was them screenshotting pictures of me with white people, or friends or ex-partners, and they would be like, ‘Oh, look at her, how can you complain about white supremacy when you sleep with white men or want to sleep with them?’” The screenshots wound up on fake Instagram pages impersonating Huang, and on Asian identity Reddit threads where Huang’s harassers convened.

MRAsians make this argument against seemingly every Asian woman or non-binary person they come across, regardless if there’s a white boyfriend in their photos, Huang said, because “in reality it doesn’t even matter who an Asian woman dates—if you provoke MRAsians, that’s how they’ll attack you.”I, too, have been among the ranks of Asian women and non-binary people assigned an imaginary white boyfriend by MRAsians.

Sunisa Lee does not have a fake white boyfriend. But her relationship with her notably real Black boyfriend has drawn vitriol from MRAsian corners of the internet nonetheless. Huang said the backlash against Lee and her relationship is rooted in anti-Blackness that’s endemic among MRAsians, as well as many Asian communities in general.

. “They’ll tell themselves that the people who are perpetrating the most hatred toward Asians are Black people. They’ll overall just ignore white supremacy as the actual root of any of this.”Huang said MRAsians “ignore” white supremacy, but many of them actually see themselves as fighting it by targeting and harassing Asian women—particularly those perceived to have non-Asian partners—because they see these two identities as a conjoined, singular evil.

According to Fang, MRAsians believe Asian men and Asian women “need to practice political authenticity through their personal lives, and their sex lives in particular,” because MRAsians see “Asian men as emasculated in American society.” This, she said, creates a responsibility for Asian women “to promote Asian men as worthy sex partners, which is Asian women’s most useful form of activism.

I guarantee white men seethe harder at BMAF than Asian men do. You should know they all cope with 'Asian women belong to white men'

you stepped in an arena you do not understand.

“Anti-Blackness is perverse is this small subset of Reddit users and that’s what Suni sees” These performative writers hyper focus on a Reddit group which ends up targeting all Asian men (read the comments), while ignoring the very real issues in the Azn community as a whole

So why would anyone here oppose this relationship?

What's for dinner y'all?

If you need any more proof light skinned Asian people are white read this by kylietcheung which uses the same language white women use to try and separate themselves from white men despite enjoying all the privileges of white supremacy.

They appear to both be humanoid.

Too familiar if it's specifically east Asian women dating white men but I understand your desperate attempt to play yourself as victim as always.
