Doug C Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Uh, not really. Did I actually have to specify "attractive female" along with the word Asian? You strike me as at least a little smarter than that. LolDid he actually have to specify "I am not making a reference to your sexuality but a humorous observation that someone being turned on by Asians but turned off by obesity could have a conundrum if they met an obese Asian"? You strike me as at least a little smarter than that. Did you honestly think that he was purposeful in choosing sumo wrestlers so that he could make a point about sexuality? If so, wow.

Mr. Heartbreak Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Actually, I thought it was offensive in a couple ways. For one, my fiancee is Asian. Was the implication that all Asian people look alike? Or perhaps it was that I like Sumo wrestlers? Yeah, that was so funny! Sometimes the maturity level on here is downright depressing. Lamrod is correct: it was trolling, pure and simple, and tp excels at it, along with a few others on here. It's pretty annoying at best and offensive at worst. But no matter how obnoxious it gets, you'll note that there is never an apology or retraction. Interesting. Besides, I COULD have spelled out "Attractive Asian female" like I think everyone is an idiot, but I thought people would appreciate the brevity of the post...something I am not known for.

Mr. Heartbreak Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Yep, that's for sure. And it certainly has made VC a less enjoyable place to hang out. Fortunately, I have no problem ignoring people if I choose to.So, anyone else have a Turn On/ Turn Off to add? Time to move along, people... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The "implication" was that there exists a conundrum of sorts with an overweight Asian. I thought it was funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Heartbreak Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 No worries. I'm just sad that when someone sees the word "Asian," the first thing they think of is...that. I still kinda wish I could unsee that image. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 no. the juxtaposition of "overweight" spurred that particular google image search. when i think of the term "Asian" on its own, i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
