Yellow Fever
Don't ask me how I stumbled across it, but I've managed to find a forum dedicated to white male/asian female relationships. Although I'm sure that their intentions are noble (boo yah! hot white man on asian chick action, baby!), it's one of the more subtly racist sites that I've seen. Witness an excerpt from the "Why not Asian male with white female" thread.
I have dated two Asian men in my life and the insecurity doesn't stop with the inability to make the first move... it continues well into the relationship with many questions and a lot of distrust about why you would want them when other guys are trying to talk to you all the time. This makes it very difficult for a "Liberated White Woman" to tolerate dating an Asian male even if she does find them attractive and mentally stimulating.

Uh... yeah. What do you think, my yellow friends?
