A HARMFUL STEREOTYPE
▲The small asian penis stereotype is not rooted in biology, but in a long history of racism. It can be traced back to 18th-century colonial pseudoscience, reinforced in the 19th century through Yellow Peril propaganda, and later normalized through Western film, television, and pornography from the mid-20th century to the present day.
▶︎This portrait is a refusal of stereotype, silence, and inherited shame. It presents an Asian male body as it is without distortion or apology and confronts what viewers may have been conditioned to assume.
Racist myths persist only when they are left unchallenged. Changing the narrative isn't abstract. It lives in what we tolerate, repeat, and choose to correct. The responsibility to stop carrying these ideas forward belongs to all of us.
