Aunty Lu

An Asian woman who despises her heritage and ethnic origins, but worships western culture and adheres to white standards of beauty. She expresses this through different avenues, but she most notably only dates white men (or has much lower standards for white men than for her own kind). She also refuses to speak her mother tongue, or to acknowledge any ties to her family’s hometown or home country. She will often put down Asian men in public, referring to them as “unattractive”, “too traditional”, or as “too much like a brother to me”. She inevitably attracts white men with yellow fever who exhibits colonial intentions, and ends up complaining about getting fetishized by them. Those who are tired of getting fetishized might reverse course and go back to her own kind, a phenomenon known as a “Bananarang”. It is important to note that not all women in WMAF couples are Aunty Lus, but in the US and Anglo countries, most of them are. This is due to the existence of white cultural supremacy combined with a strong historical hatred against Asian males in English speaking western countries. The male equivalent of the Aunty Lu is the Uncle Chan. Famous Aunty Lus include: Ali Wong, Wendi Deng, Riko Shitaba
