GAY ASIAN BOYS WHO GO LOW-CARB ON OTHER GAMS: why, oh, why are you repelled by your own kind?

So here I was checkin' out some chatrooms on gay.com (shut up--you do it, too!) and not that I'm surprised, but what is up with the INTRA-racial GAM-a-phobia?

 Where in gay hell have all the "stickies" gone today?

Most of the GAM profiles I had viewed today, as well as in the past, more than likely emphasize on an asian man's pursuit of gwm and/or latino booty. So I decided to perform a little experiment. I made it a point to say hi only to asian men. I sent 20 private messages and got just one response. And all this boy had to say was "sorry, not into asians." 

If this isn't self-loathing, then I'm really Kirstey Alley's famous kankles!

Now I respect everyone's preferences.  But as common as this happens in the US, I still find it silly when an asian boy claims he's not into other asian boys without EVER giving it a shot.

Heck! Even I had a girlfriend for 9 months right before I came out .  A significant part of that decision was to get to know myself better and be able to honestly and confidently claim that I'm REALLY not into women. Selfish, yes--but I was a damn good straight BF! Hehehe. Anyways, I digress...

I'm not asking you boys to go muff-diving anytime soon, but please hear me out.  It's one thing to have a preference, but it's ridiculous for you to not give yourself a chance to know what it's like and be so dismissive towards your own kind like that.

And what is this stigma with GAMs who do like other GAMs? Why does the term "sticky rice" always have such a negative connotation? What is wrong with a man who has appreciation for his own kind?

Now I know I shouldn't be the one to preach. I admit that all my commited relationships had, so far, been with skinny white guys who look nothing like me.  But that doesn't mean I haven't had my serving of white, brown and well, sticky rice. Hehehe. I'm proud to say that I'm not "lo-carb" when it comes to boys. 

HERE'S MY BEEF: there are these gay-sian boys who constantly whine about how Western culture/media portrays us as either neutered or androgynous or simply incapable of being "sexy." Now I would love for the rest of the world to look at and treat me like a piece of meat--but I SERIOUSLY think that should start from our own gay asian community.

Dude, EVEN rice queens have a helping of potato every now and then.

Wake up and smell the kim-chi baby boy! If you can't even appreciate the beauty of your own race, how can you expect others to do the same?
