See, now, that's what's called sexism.

With a bit of xenophobia thrown in, sure, but the base oppression that's at play there is misogyny.

[(Anonymous)]

sa, sexism is definitely a huuuuge part of it; but non-white girls (or even white brunettes) do not have that particular problem. It's a white-girl-only issue :\

(Which is of course not to say that it's the worst problem you can face in Japan; that it in anyway compares with the problems that, for example, Brazilians and Koreans in Japan face, etc. But it's still an actual problem that shouldn't be ignored)

[(Anonymous)]

I'd still call it xenophobia + misogyny, but I can see why someone would make the argument that that particular case is also sort of racism.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's straight-up racism due to the institutional support behind it.

What if the white girl was born in Japan? If it's more about her physical features than her status as a foreigner, I'd say it's more racism than xenophobia in that case

[sopphs]

Wait. So, if, for example, a latino girl being discriminated against in a country where the majority of its population is white, it is called racism + sexism. But if the same happens with a white girl in a majorly POC country, it is xenophobia?

Racism: "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one’s own race is superior"

Xenophobia is a phobia, it's a fear. This is not "I fear white people are going to take my jobs away" or just a plain dislike for european or north american people.


It's pure discrimination, so yeah, it's racism.

No one thinks I'm being xenophobic if I say "Immigrants from China are ruining our economy" (which is something that is usually said in the country where I live because of the constant growth of chinese stores here that are indeed destroying our local shops) and then proceed to treat them differently from every single other person because they are chinese people. They say I'm being a racist.
