PostSecret for Asian Americans

Caught news of a new site called PostMimi at Slant Eye for the Round Eye. It’s a PostSecret-style blog, where the author Karen encourages Asian Americans to e-mail or mail their secrets to her.

I like the idea.  But many Asian Americans already routinely post their secrets under anonymous handles on sites like the 44s and 8 Asians.  I remember admin-ing the 44s and meeting some guy who admitted that he had been convicted of attempted rape, and that he didn’t care or have remorse.  It was baffling (and sickening).  So I wonder whether anyone will actually post anything original.

Among the first “secrets“:

1. I love half asian people. They are incredibly beautiful, and I’m excited as an Asian woman dating a white man to one day produce one of these beautiful creatures.

I wasn’t sure if this was a real secret or just a prank.  But assuming it’s a real secret, the so-called “secret” of searching for a white partner because of the supposed racial superiority of mixed genes been celebrated before by both Asian American bloggers and by famous Asian American authors.  Woohoo, you think your children are better than everyone else’s because they’re part White.  Woohoo, you still have a colonized mindset, even though it’s the 21st century.  Woohoo!

Been there, done that.  Next!

    Just ask any asian “chinadoll” baby adopted from China, Korea etc where caucasians like to shop for their adopted babies. They can choose any ethnicity to their liking! and dress them up in Qipaos and take them to the local chinese restaraunt so the whole family can experience authentic asian culture! wooot woot! yay for orientalism asiaphilia…

Freakin gweilos muthaf#cka c#nts FFFIN ASIAPIHLES LAOWAIs SHOULD BE CASTRATED AND SPAYED so they stop breeding, FUUUUU#K i just get angry thinking about it, THOSE GWEI ANIMALS ARE DIRTY LOW CLASS MUTHAFUCKERS.

    anna123- Yeah, I’m sick of it too. Colored children from developing countries is like the ultimate fashion accessory to the white elite (and not so elite). After all, what other brand name can promote someone as the Ultimate White Savior?

    “House of Whoreship?” That’s a badass site!

    Well, I hope I’m still on Maloy’s good side. Tell her I said hello. She reads and knows a lot.
