Stereotypes of East Asians in the United States
Stereotypes of East Asians are ethnic stereotypes found in American society. Stereotypes of East Asians, like other ethnic stereotypes, are often manifest in a society's media, literature, theater and other creative expressions. Stereotypes of East Asians have been largely collectively internalized by society and these stereotypes have mainly negative repercussions for East Asians and East Asian immigrants in daily interactions, current events, and governmental legislation. In many instances, media portrayals of East Asians often reflect a dominant Americentric perception rather than realistic and authentic depictions of true cultures, customs and behaviors. East Asians have experienced discrimination and have been victims of hate crimes related to their ethnic stereotypes, as it has been used to reinforce xenophobic sentiment.
==Orientalism, mysticism and exoticism==
According to Edward Said, ''orientalism'' refers to the manner in which West interprets or comes to terms with their experiences and encounters with the ''foreign'', ''unfamiliar'' Orient, or the East. Said claimed that "the Orient" was a European invention to denote East Asia as a place of exoticism, romance, and remarkable experiences and also as a concept to contrast against Western civilization.〔Said, Edward. ''Orientalism.'' New York: Vintage, 1978, pp. 1-2.〕
The effects of orientalism in Western cultures includes the "othering" of East Asians and East Asian Americans; their cultures and lifestyles perceived as "exotic", in stark contrast to "ordinary" Western customs.〔 While Western cultures are perceived or believed capable of change and modernization, East Asian cultures are often considered ancient in contrast.
