This quote struck me, in particular because so many asians on college campuses have noticed this phenomena.
A lot of asians have been going to great lengths to change their "kung fu" image or as geeky engineers. Recently a film was made exclusively by asian actors ("Better Luck Tomorrow") to counter the asian male stereotypes that most people hold. Ehh, the movie was okay, but I appreciated it cuz for once asian guys were human. haha
