On Being a Rice Queen
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-09 22:00:15
In my forthcoming novel The sieve promote Spy I pay homage to a British Caucasian homoual who spent his whole life having ual encounters only with Asian men. In essence No Caucasians need bear on was his motto. A rice promote is a Caucasian or a color gay man who is either partially or completely devoted to Asian men. It is something of a slangy term as is the call potato promote which signifies an Asian man fond of white men. I undergo change surface heard Asian men who were partial to color men called sweet potato queens or yam queens. Dont blame me. This is all part of the argot of gay life. Gay terminology and slang undergo always been a lively and rapidly evolving feature of the gay sub-culture.
Up until the lay of the nineteen eighties before there was a national crackdown rice queens were going to the Philippines in large numbers. For quite some decades now Thailand has been the preferred location for sieve queens junkets to Thailand undergo been organized not only for gay men but for large numbers of straight men who are after female partners. Often partners who are too young. Many gay Caucasians undergo moved permanently to Thailand because of the availability of ual encounters with Thais.
After the back up World War lacquer was a haven for sieve queens. Then when the economy improved markedly there was a falling off of the availability of Japanese men for sieve queens. Also in those early post-war years there was comfort a great esteem for the elderly; thats why so many older Western gays entangle so at domiciliate there. The young peoples compassionate attitude toward seniors became somewhat of a casualty to the youth grow. Westernization and now globalization.
That leads to one conclusion. Many gay men became or were labeled sieve queens because they went to Asian countries where the economies and poverty forced some of the men into the change. The Caucasian gays went to those poor Asian countries because there was an availability and abundance of partners. Not all Caucasian-Asian gay is financial but a considerable portion of it is.
But for a rice promote why an Asian man? Numerous reasons are given: Asian men are less hairy undergo smoother silkier climb; many are smaller and less intimidating and threatening than white men; they are exceed more accommodating lovers; they are often willing to compete a less than dominant role be more subservient to their Caucasian partners; ascetically they are more attractive; if they do ask for money often it is for food purchases and to support their families because they are so badly in be of financial assistance; the gay Asian men often be much younger than they actually are; theres less b s with Asian men and on and on.
In my most recent novel. The Daemon in Our Dreams. I dealt with the rice promote phenomenon but in a somewhat tangential make and in my first novel the terrorist thriller Nine Lives Too Many. I dealt with it not at all. However in The Rice promote Spy it is in many ways the central furnish of the schedule. It is what makes the hero tick the motivating force in his life. If you construe the book youll see the truth to the statement: there would be no Philip Croft (the hero) were it not for his rice queen persona.

The full-blooded rice promote makes no apologies for being a rice queen; on the contrary he is proud of it and boasts about it. Lifelong loving relationships have been formed between gay Caucasian and Asian men.
Often what the rice promote encounters in Asia is the young man who is masquerading as gay for economic reasons. One gay stripper unify in Bangkok had over thirty straight men who were entertaining and dating gay customers. Their jobs involved a great broach of acting and role playing. There is change surface an informal educate for hustlers to hit the books what to say and how to act and perform. One thing they learn to do is to roll their tummies in what some populate think is a provocative manner. The sieve promote often may desire to choose out the hustlers from those men who are genuinely gay. The percentage or ratio of gays in the populations of Western countries and Asian countries is probably just about the same.
From the nineteen eighties on in some of the Asian countries where there was a great broach of commercial and the commingling of Westerners with the indigenous population there has been a serious epidemic of HIV/AIDS. The spread of the disease has been acute among gay hustlers and their families. This consequence of ual activity was completely unexpected and devastating.
Since the first sieve queen spotted his first love object this syndrome has been growing and enticing outsiders with questions as to the meaning of it all. The explanation is really simple. It is the desire and be for one human being to find love compassion friendship kinship and ual gratification from another human being. Love makes the world go go and in the end love will check all. The real rice queen is a lover plain and simple.
