onion: asian teen has old sweaty white guy fetish

Here's a clever piece from The Onion that flips the ol' Asian teen fetish stereotype on its head: Asian Teen Has Sweaty Middle-Aged-Man Fetish.

The headline sort of says it all. Nobody wants to hear about gross old white dudes fantasizing about Asian teens. But what about the other way around? It's pretty ridiculous. And funny. But then...

At first I was laughing, because it's pretty clever, and hits all the little nasty nuances. Then I got kind of uncomfortable, and the piece just started to gross me out. Which I suppose is exactly the point.
