Recently, he interviewed a white-appearing woman, asking if she had dated Korean men. The woman replied that she had not dated Korean men but had one-night-stands with them, saying the experience “fell short” when asked.
From there, she describes how they “fell short,” bringing in Japanese men in comparison.

The interviewer then asked what the sample size she had sex with for Koreans, prompting her to describe the men she slept with as a “data pool” and state precisely how Japanese men were “better,” including penis size and “creativity.”

On the other hand, the videos have inspired much criticism for several reasons.
A woman openly discussing her sexual experiences and number of partners is not something she should be shamed for like many of the comments did. However, some felt that were it a man discussing women’s parts in the same “body shaming” way, reactions would have been vastly different.
Others found her comments to be fetishizing, even accusing her of participating in sex tourism.
According to the CDC, sex tourism is “travel for the specific purpose of procuring sex.” Usually, it occurs when those from high-income countries travel to places where cheap, commercial sex is readily available and has ties to sex trafficking.
Sex workers trying to attract foreigners in one of Thailand’s red light districts | NDR Recent usage of the term has expanded to include those who fetishize specific demographics and travel to countries where they are to engage in sexual behaviors they do not have at home.
While some did not see her as a sex tourism traveler, many still felt that the way she spoke about Asian men as objects and experiences rather than people pointed to fetishization.
she's weird & fetishizing but this isnt sex tourism, stop miusing that term. sex tourists go to developing countrie & take advantage of the economic gap between them & residents to buy sex from, often trafficked, women and children. sex tourism is a multibillion dollar industry. https://t.co/ZTJYzAL2PO

it's never a problem when white ppl clearly fetishize and sexualize asians and other races, but black kpop fans can't even bias a kpop idol without being hated on and called names https://t.co/jtMGdrpd4V
