My analysis focuses, in part, on those men who engage in the sex trade and then post their travelog type narratives on the world wide web. I interrogate these narratives as having consequences for Asian American sexuality because the narratives work to deploy the colonial stereotypes and intra-psychic conflicts of the writer onto the racialized Asian body as a means to maintain an idealized object. I believe that these narratives expose deep seated psychological discord. I do contest the veracity of these narratives, and read them as potentially pseudo-fictional accounts of events. However, these narratives may.
Consistency is paramount if a person is to have a fantasy played out by the fetishized object.
Since Whites are believed to be the most attractive object of Asian affection, African Americans are excluded. In this article, I am only focusing on heterosexual narratives even though there are a number of homoerotic narratives and a homoerotic subtext to many of the writings. Like porcelain, a painting, a sunny flower in the wind. Unfortunately, his observing ego lets slip an unconscious sexual conflict. Personally, I remember my initial discovery of these sites and my own sense of confusion in reaction to these sites.
