I was watching the Tuxedo and this movie with Jet Li and Aaliyah an dI noticed that they were couples and they didn't kiss. I also say another movie with Jet li and some other woman and they didn't kiss or have sex. What's up? If it was a Asian woman and a non-Asian guy she would be having sex in the movie. They make it seem like Asian men aer sexless and Asian women ar ehypersexual.

Unfortunately it's Hollywood's belief that the public does not want or accept seeing an Asian male romantically involved with any women but in particular, white females. They'd potentially isolate all the white males out there which would be a huge blow at the box office. Think of the last time you've seen Will Smith or Denzel Washington paired up romantically with a white female? I read someplace that they typically pair up African-American actors with latinas as a compromise. (Think Will and Denzel with Eva Mendes in Hitch and Out of Time). Interracial relationships are probably the hot button when it comes to race relations. So Hollywood plays it safe to maximize box office returns. The safest IR pairing is the WM-AF which is why you see it so often.

Great question! This has happened in just about every movie I have ever seen with an Asian man! It seems as if Asian men cannot not be percieved as sexual beings. It's weird & I have a theory. I've seen a few EXTREMELY attractive Asian men and...

i'm only uninterested in Hollywood remaking wonderful Asian horror flicks and turning them into watered down Hollywood trash with an identical BS in each action picture. rarely ever does Hollywood create an unique horror action picture anymore. that is all remakes from the 70's and 80's or them copying another usa's action picture. complete bullshit.

I have no idea. I would have loved to see Mira Sorvino "get it on" with Chow Yun Fat in Replacement Killers.
The only scene that I can think of that had the Asian man in a love scene was the Bruce Lee movie with Jason Scott Lee as Bruce and Lauren Holly as his wife.

Because most audiences don't want to see it. Hollywood needs box office income you know.
