at least that’s what my yoga instructor told us…earlier this morning. my hip popped out during a downward facing dog bit, and she knew that it felt nice….i was never a flexible person.
at the RSF (college gym) - i climbed on to a climbing machine…i suppose it feels a bit easier to to get some cardio in when a machine pumps the legs for you. maybe next time i’ll try the track out.
but at the machine, there’s always a nice spot for people watching. to my left, the lightweight crew set up a recruitment table. come row with us….one asian guy and a white guy/asian girl couple manned the table. i’m sure they’re friends or at least on good terms….but i also noticed that the asian guy got this percuilar look in his face when the white guy became affection with his gal. it could be leaving his arm around her back, or brushing a strand of hair away from her thin face. i guess the asian guy is lonely….
or is he thinking about, what does this guy have that i don’t have? why am i not attractive to her? do i remind her of a brother or a cousin, or somebody too close for comfort?
another asian friend had this coversation with me - about what makes asian girls attracted to certain people. we came to the conclusion that’s its the media’s fault. tv, movies, and magazines dictate how concepts of beauty and attraction. they show us models and actors who are clearly sexy, brilliant, witty, and white. thankfully, i haven’t found myself stuck being attracted to one physical type of guy (maybe because i could be desparate and i have a fear of lonilness) but i do know several girls who don’t find any asian guys attractive. and that’s sad. yeah, it’s our American media - brainwashing us from birth. what did i grow up with?
save by the bell
he-man
gi joe
jem
the smurfs (ok…that’s more of a blue thing, than something ethnic)
kids incorp.
stuff like that….where are our people in the media? where are our beautiful asian models and actors? rare….i can name them on one hand….at least the ones i saw growing up.
so back at the RSF - i think i understand….i could be imagining…but i’m sure it was at least subconcious for him.
at it’s not fair.
not for any of us.
screw the media.
