I think I first heard of Kristina Wong (“solo performer, writer, actor, educator, culture jammer, and filmmaker”) around her antics of trying to marry her dream husband, Taiwanese American NBA basketball player Jeremy Lin, and her viral TV interview on which was freaking hilarious on why everyone wants to date Asian women. Last April 2016, I also had a chance to catch her live in her excellent, excellent solo performance of “The Wong Street Journal.”
Wong has now released a web series called “Kristina Wong’s How to Pick Up Asian Chicks” that has funny women like me, Asa Akira (the porn star), Amy Hill (“Crazy Ex Girlfriend” and “Unreal”) and child actor Aubrey Anderson-Emmons (“Modern Family”) and 15 other APIA women. The premise goes:
“Essentially, there exists a genre of self-published books written by white men on how to pick-up Asian women with such literary titles as “Asian Milf Hunting” and “Everyman’s Guide to Asian Sex.” In the spirit of Jimmy Kimmel’s “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets” I had Asian American women read and respond to some of their writing on camera. I bought six of these books (with my hard earned money) and we are releasing one episode per book!”
Here are the videos – enjoy!
“How to Get an Asian Girlfriend”
“Every Man’s Guide to Asian Sex”
“Dating Asian Women: What to Know and How to Behave when Dating an Asian Woman”
“The Dark Side of Asian Women: What to Expect From an Asian Woman Before It Happens”
“Asian MILF Hunting”
“How to Get a Vietnamese Girlfriend”
These books sound pretty ridiculous and I have to really wonder how many people are stupid enough to buy them? Maybe I should self-publish some books myself?
