Harry Potter’s Asian Fetish

Here at Hogwarts
98% white
But as soon as your voice changed
Who’d you dream about at night?

The only Asian girl at school
Just what about her is so cool?
Her jet-black hair, her slanty eyes?
Or maybe that she’s half your size?

Harry Potter, you are weird
You stalked Cho Chang for two whole years
You finally reached fanatic bliss
With that weeping Christmas kiss

The only Asian girl at school
What about her is so cool?
Her math skills, her slender frame?
Or maybe her cool Chinese name?

Harry Potter, just admit it
If it’s Asian, you would hit it
It’s more than just a youthful wish
You have a full-fledged Asian fetish

You have an Asian fetish (Harry Potter’s Asian fetish)
You have an Asian fetish (Harry Potter’s Asian fetish)
You have an Asian fetish (Harry Potter’s Asian fetish)

You have a serious problem.

Why is it a serious problem? It’s not that she’s Asian, she’s a beautiful girl. You’re being racist…why, if she was blonde, would it much more “normal”. You have to accept the fact that many Asian women can be beautiful, and it’s not just a “FETISH thingy”.

I totally agree with Chris – if Cho was white, no one would make a joke about her race. There are loads of guys that just like girls because they’re pretty, not becuase of “Asian Fetish”. And how can Harry even have an Asian fetish for just liking one girl?

I would have taken this song lightly if “You have a serious problem.” wasn’t in the song.

Because he picked Cho out of any other girl in the school. Her name “Cho” is evidence of the author’s ignorance, and the decision to use an ethnic name shows that her race is meant to be a conspicuous part of the characterization.

It’s a song, guys. It has no reflection on the writers’ beliefs or lives. It’s meant to be satirization of the characters.

If you notice carefully, it doesn’t actually SAY that Cho is Asian. It just says that she is beautiful and has dark hair. For all we know, she could be Southern. Maybe her parents just liked the name Cho. And maybe Chang is her last name because she was adopted by Asians. Think about it.

Why does everyone assume that all Asians have slanty eyes ?! And here we go again with stereotypical shit. Just like any other race- there are ugly and pretty ppl, don’t go on talking like it’s a bad thing if a guy dumps his (say caucasian) girl for an Asian.
