Katherine Heigl's Sister, Anti-Asian Sentiments
Gossip blogs can suck my big toe.
The anti-asian sentiments found in gossip blogs are appalling, racist, sexist, and downright infuriating. I never link to sites that I don't read, but apparently some gossip blog (Idon'tlikeyouinthatwaydotcom) has some choice words to describe the surprise that Katherine Heigl was a bridesmaid for her sister and the bride is of asian-descent.
OH MY GOSH. WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO? HOW CAN KATHERINE GREYSMULTICULTURALANATOMY STAR HAVE A HAPA SISTER?
I guess we could ignore logical steps in ascertaining how and why Heigl's sister is of a different racial and ethnic make-up. Mhm, second marriages, adoption, bi-racial identities...no? Of course, we can always just pander to the lowest common denominator and resort to racist and sexist commentary.
Thanks to Jen for bringing this ugly out into the open.
