wtf?

This is an actual class taught by this actual Chinese woman who claims to be an authority on the subject, if there is such a thing:

http://www.attractasianwomen.com/

a friend of mine knows someone who actually wrote about this site:

"Ming Tan's class just baffles me. I can't get over it. It just seems like some sick kind of joke. I'm not sure what bothers me most... the fact that this class, which sooooooo caters to creepy men with an Asian fetish, actually exists, or the fact that's it's being taught by an Asian woman who claims to be an authority on the matter. Could it be that she genuinely believes she is offering the public, Asian-seekers and Asian women alike, some kind of progressive, benevolent service? Then she is seriously misguided. The class and everything behind her teaching promotes the stereotypes and the exoticization of Asian women.

"It's also been suggested to me that she's just trying to cash in on the Asian fetish... since right now most of the money made from such exploitation usually goes to white males. In that case, it seems Ming Tan is just turning it around, reaping some of the benefits as an Asian woman herself. That may be true, but it doesn't help anyone. Doesn't matter where the money's going --it still exploits the ugly, ugly nature of the Asian fetish. Ming Tan may be cashing in, but all of the other Asian ladies have to suffer the consequences of her "teachings," and fend off all her FREAK "students.""

my gf is an asian and i do love her for what she does the best... she's being herself!

btw, i think i got a football fever. i finally stayed up late last night to watch the senegal - denmark match and boy it was an exciting game and only had a few hours of sleep afterward. strangely, i don't feel too tired at all! perhaps i shud sleep right after work for the next few weeks and watch the matches during the twlight zone!
