Meet who collects Asians. Or more specifically he categorizes girls on DeviantArt into three categories: Pretty Asian Girl, Ugly Asian Girl, and Wanna Be Asian Girl. Is it just me or is something extremely messed up here? Sure, the idea of women being merely objectified and categorized is nothing new in society and especially not on the internet. But in your collections and faves? And the entire point of your DA account is for this purpose. Very sad indeed.

According to !AsianCollections this is a(n):

Pretty Asian Girl


Ugly Asian Girl


Wanna Be Asian Girl


First of all, what is sad is that the type of girl he classifies as being worthy of "Pretty Asian Girl" doesn't even look like a natural Asian girl. She is obviously wearing circle lenses and makeup and overall just wearing a bunch of makeup. The girl certainly is cute and pretty but is that really what his standard of what is pretty?

As for the second category, he describes this group: "Any Asian girl who isn't pretty
How are you even asian?"
I'm sorry to disagree but that is just rude! The girl in the featured thumbnail is really cute, sweet, and fresh-faced. Her Artist Comments are cheerful and lovely reading: "because a smile is all i can give
because true happiness is priceless". And yet he brands her as "ugly"? How horrible!

And for the last group who are "Stupid girl who tries to be asian". I didn't know the Asian culture was so exclusive and elitist. Neither was I aware that photo booth pictures with friends or throwing up the peace/victory sign was reserved only for Asians. Why can't a couple of girls just have some fun, doing nothing harmful in any way at all. No, instead some very exclusive person decides to sort people according to his own shallow views.

Now what I find completely hilarious is that he filed me under Ugly Asian Girl. Hahahaha. The complete joke is that I'm not even full Asian. In fact I'm Filipino, Chinese, Mexican, German, Spanish, Hungarian, and Native American. And now I know some people are going to say that the only reason I'm so quote "butthurt" over this issue is that I'm classified as ugly. If he put you in the Pretty Asian Girl it wouldn't have bothered you one bit.  Haha so what if he thinks I'm ugly? Go ahead and mock me!



Did I take this picture on vacation for YOUR approval. Haha, I don't think so.

In response to his little classification of me I commented on his page. I noticed that below there were several other comments that displayed: "Hidden by Owner". I had a feeling that those who said something were silenced. He only kept the comments that praised his "collection". I responded with:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hahaha I like how you put me in the Ugly Asian groups when I'm not even a full-Asian. Goes to show how parochial-minded someone like you are. I guess you lack the mental capacity to appreciate people of mixed race. Also I feel sad for you and how you fail to appreciate the cultures of other people. I guess you can't handle someone who is of more than one ethnicity.

I pride myself in being a bit of everything, more than you can ever be.

But of course since this comment is going to be hidden by the owner since you're too chicken to have anyone have the nerve to stand up to you, I'm also going to send this in a note to you. And I'll probably make a big deal about it on DA.

Have fun with your superficial life."

Yeah I know people are going to say that my statements were a bit of a dose of overreacting. But somebody had to say it. I mean honestly isn't this all very reminiscent of some kind of creepy bug collector?  

Anyways here's the collection:

And next time, AsianCollections, know that ~naturallycomplex is just too complex for you to simplify into your little categories.
Have a nice day everybody!
