Why do westerners fetishize certain Asian countries like Japan, Korea, Thailand while despising others like India and Pakistan?

Hi BabyGirl_S, you made a blue account now I see.
The simple answer is, Pakistanis are too prudish and religion, and Indians are extremely arrogant and have many problems in their country, and even if they want to date/fuck a White, their racist fathers/brothers won't let them

Girls fetishize k-pop and k-series celebrities and Korean culture, and guys fetishize anime/hentai, porn, and "tradwife cilture". As for Thailand, I think you know why.

Pakistan is much more conservative and thus Pakistani women don't give porn addicts something to fetishize. India has a lot of negative stereotypes these based on different societal factors.

Gee it’s almost like countries that were more receptive to westernized colonization are more readily praised and accepted, and subsequently sexualized in western culture. The patriarchy strikes again

[Tuntus]

When were Japan, Thailand and S. Korea ever receptive to "western" colonization. Japan was itself a colonzer, Thailand was never colozined, and Korea was colonized not by westerners but the Japanese. If anything South Asia was way more colonized and still holds receptive mindset towards the west. An average white man will be treated as a god in India while an East Asian person will not see him as anything special. Thai people might even consider him as sex tourist.

You are aware that it was Americans that forced open their closed borders after they remained shut for 200 years, right?

[BonzoInBitburg]

The people in SE Asia are nicer than India and Pakistan. It's not a fetish to like people who are friendly

[slatyb]

Old stereotypes, and racism. I've been attracted to more South Asians than East Asians.

[Avicenna]

I think you’ll find plenty of Westerners interested in India.

[In_Trance]

It's not like other cultures are obsessed with the American way of living either right?

[Tuntus]

Yet a lot of people will give off their arms and legs to move to the US.

For Pakistan it probably because they don’t like Islam.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Because India and Pakistan are disgusting countries. The rest of Asia is mostly clean and well run.

@Tuntus government propaganda

[Tuntus]

If you're referring to my country's govt propoganda, I don't know if my country has any selective bias against India or Pakistan. They're not our enemy state like Iran or Russia. If anything, the most South Asia hate I've seen comes from Europe.

@Tuntus
What did Iran do to USA?

[Tuntus]

I was referring to countries that are anti-western ideology. As it makes sense if the average American or European dislikes Iran, China or Russia. But it seems there is a lot more hate towards Indians, Pakistanis and South Asians in general when these countries are not politically anti west.

@Tuntus
Well I’m not very aware of all that. So
