'''This page is an embarassment, littered with racist sentiment that is introduced as perceptions, but then elaborated on and inflated with facts that support the racist ideas themselves, rather than the perceptions as it logically should, becoming a straight forward list of racist sentiment against Asians. I'll list a few examples:
'''
''The stereotype of Asian are emasculine is related to the appearance of Asians. Asians are typically perceived as short and having less body hair than whites. Therefore, they are prejudiced as having less androgens and testosterone than whites. [12] However, some studies suggest that Asians have less hair is due to less sensitive hair follicles, not the amount of testosterone. [13] [14] This is also true between humans and apes. Studies shown while humans have more androgens than apes, humans have less hair. [15] Therefore, the amount of hair is not necessary related to the amount of androgens, androgen receptor sensitivity. [13] [14]
''Some studies conclude that Asian men have slightly less testosterone levels than whites. On average studies found that Asian men have 10% less testosterone than whites, blacks have 17% more. [16] This may not be caused by genetics, but environmental differences such as diet. Studies show that Western diets significantly promote higher testosterone levels as compared to Asian diets. [17]''''

I know that there is an emasculine stereotype, however discussion on the accuracy of the stereotype is inappropriate, whether it is true or not. This is not a list of asian attributes, rather it is listing perceptions of asian attributes.

''Many Asians remain lactose intolerant. [45] Due to the imbalance of the male-female populations in some Asian nations, not everyone can marry each other. This imbalance increases selection pressure, which leads females to select the taller, lactose persistent males. The lactose intolerant population will become smaller over time. Phenotypic traits that are associated or linked with the phenotypic lactose intolerance trait, will thus become less prevalent and may even disappear over time. Due to the wide increase of dairy products in Asian nations, this process is minimizing the genetic diversity of the Asian race. [46] [47] [48] [49]''
'''
What the hell is the above doing in the stereotypes :Stereotype of homogenity: section? As a grad student in genetics, I challenge anyone to show that the evidence in this single paper demonstrates is Asians are losing genetic diversity, which is what this section is suggesting.
'''
'''The height difference between races is not a stereotype, it is a statistical fact. By putting in this section alongside others such as "Lack of creativity and innovation", and the opinion of white supremacists, it is being suggested that a racist construct is equivalent to fact.
