We Need To Talk About Dating For Asian Men

In today’s podcast episode, I decide to talk about dating for Asian men. It’s been a while since I’ve addressed this topic, and it’s very interesting. That’s because even though there’s been a lot more content, awareness, discussion, and advice over the last decade, I still see hordes of Asian men who fit a nerdy, socially inept, academically-focused stereotype. They often wear glasses and focus on school at the cost of other things in life, and so forth. In this podcast, I keep it concise (11 minutes!) so that I don’t lose your attention. I touch on why I think this phenomenon still exists, how to take action to break out of it, what’s the “resistance” that holds them back even if they have the knowledge they need, and a shoutout towards all the Asian men I met in school and life who broke the mold. That last one’s really important! There’s Asian men around you in your daily life who are funny, masculine, socially skilled, athletic, popular, or fashionable. They exist, just not in large numbers. It’s useful to study them, befriend them, learn from them, and acknowledge them; not everyone fits a negative stereotype, and more people need to be aware that there is variance across Asian men.
