All interests are based on <fetishes>.

The fetish of beauty. The fetish if intelligence. The fetish of kindness.

What's wrong with the fetish of Asianess?

Whenever Ciro's wife starts with "the Asian fetish talk", Ciro reminds her of her own claimed "tall person fetish", and they call it quits.

Asian fetish is much more than <sex>. It is about the culture, the history, the language. It is the same fetish that makes great <mathematicians> an <Artists> do what they do.

When <Ciro Santilli> was at <École Polytechnique>, he had to do a presentation for his stupid English courses that all students were forced to take, no matter how good their English was.

The topic was likely something like "pick a country", and Ciro was delighted when he managed to pick "China", after it had gone around a table with many many people before him.

The <PowerPoint> presentation Ciro made over the weekend was so amazing (and making it was actually fun to make, Ciro <Ciro Santilli's bad old event memory>[actually] remembers it a bit!), drawing partly from stuff his <Ciro Santilli's wife>[wife then girlfriend showed him], that at the end the one of the other students asked him if he had lived in China.

It is a shame Ciro couldn't find the presentation when he wrote this line many many years later. Anything that is not in a <BLOB>-free <monorepo>, will disappear, heed my words. But he's certain about two things which it contained:
* <century eggs>
* Chinese traditional painting

> In the United States, women of East and Southeast Asian descent are sometimes stereotyped as subservient, passive, mysterious, villainous in nature, and hyper-sexual.
subservient, passive, mysterious are understandable. But Hyper-sexual and villainous? OMG have these people never seen real Asians?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asian_fetish#Pornography[]:
> Several studies have implied that Asian women are over-represented in the American pornography industry. Asian women make up perhaps 20% of all female performers, despite being roughly 2.5% of the U.S. population. Asian men also appear to be considerably over-represented, at 10% of male actors.
