Far from being just dumb and insulting, these instances are just knots on a fuse that winds back to the 19th century, when exclusionary attitudes toward Asians in America were first ignited. A rise in national wealth and its appetite for infrastructure, notably on the Western frontier, brought waves of Chinese and other Asian workers to build America up. And where Asian women were exotified and teased into a toxic yellow-fever stereotype , Asian men were depicted as submissive, physically impotent beings who schemed with their brains in order to compensate for small dicks. This, despite modern research saying that the vast majority of Asian men have average-sized penises , with a fairly normal distribution of extra-big and extra-small examples. Some Asian men fight back against the stereotype by bellowing about falsehoods and poring over scientific studies, as on the subreddit AznIdentity, where users compared more than a dozen published pieces of penis-size research to reaffirm that Asian dicks are average. Others try to compensate by showing off their big dicks, bucking the stereotype in public forums. Others still try to ignore the myth altogether. Whichever the case, the stereotype is something that Asian men learn to live with, in the same way that black men contend with assumptions that they must have giant genitalia and the lack of intellect to match, as many racist caricatures propose.
