Title: a minor aside
Review: To suggest that Ms. Hong talks TOO MUCH about being found attractive by non-Asian Americans is almost to imply that she enjoys being fetishized, glories in it; a classic Western fallacy that is both self-serving and ethnocentric. This is like blaming the victim for rape. Rather than delight in the author's fetishization, I believe the book attempts to explore the mechanism of fetishization and objectification; the process, its drives, and products.
Is the review positive or negative?
