Are you serious right now? Do you think white women are not fetishized by black men and Asian men? I live in Asia and let me tell you something…

Both your comment and the parent are racist because you’re applying common issues to “white men” while they’re really not limited by race in any way whatsoever. Whether this or that race is fetishized by which race is completely irrelevant in the context of the article.

Fetishization is absolutely relevant in the context of the article. It completely changes the power dynamics associated with sex, which is what the article is about.

And I absolutely do believe white people can be fetishized! But this article is written in the context of a white person living in a predominantly white society. My main argument is that her experience is not generalizable to the wider population, who experience the power dynamics of sex very differently.
