(User Info | Send a Message) | To clarify, my response to Tao's "don't walk, run away" was an exaggeration and was mostly out of jest. Sorry if that offended anyone.
But there is some reasoning behind our reactions. You may wish to read Julia Oh's article to get an idea of what I'm talking about:

Assuming that the issue most of you have here are Asian women heeding to white men, something representative of the larger issue of white privilege and domination, why would you follow counter-feminist ideology created and propagated by a predominate white male movement(s) such as "men's rights" and "menism"?
I like this question because its very articulate. My less than articulate response would have to be, well if it works for them, who knows, maybe it will work for us too! |

If feminism creates a deeper divide between AMs and feminist AFs than the divide between AMs and WMs, it's natural to find allies in the men's movement - even if they are white. I have no problem with whites who are not racists.
AFs who follow feminist ideology are no better than WF feminists. They are all unsuitable mates anyway. There is no loss for AM there.
So, you are saying that Asian American feminists are more of a bigger threat than white supremacists?
In some ways, yes. They specifically attack AM masculinity, where white privilege is more of a blanket problem. As AMs, we must confront both.
