i grew up in the US watching a ton of TV with almost exclusively white characters esp. in romantic situations so i feel like my archetypes for both the sort of person i was supposed to be and the sort of person i was supposed to want were white (among other things)

fascinating to read this conversation from Singapore where for the most part people who look like QC are at the top of the social order (white privilege does also exist but they’re like a rounding error in the bigger picture context)

i met a couple asian dudes from singapore at burning man and it was a revelation. they were strong and embodied and confident and sexy in a way i’ve almost never seen in asian-americans. maybe one asian-american dude i can think of off the top of my head

Important caveat: 99.9% of Singaporean Chinese men don’t make the voyage to Burning Man. Most of them are boring fuckers. You basically met the Visa equivalent of SG Chinese dudes. All voyagers are sexy bc they undertook the voyage

Asian American dudes in Singapore (ABCs) are extremely successful at dating here for the same reason

Try it, come to Singapore and try dating. Women will love you more than you’ve ever been loved romantically. The experience will radicalize you and give you a spirit of abundance that you will then carry with you always, which in turn changes how ppl in SF treat you
