Admittedly I thought the Pornhub x Namilia collab at NYFW was a stunt, but found a funny, sexy takedown of Asian stereotypes and fetishization instead: RepresentationMatters
struck out against the fetishization of Asian women in pop culture and adult entertainment. Their partner in this mission? None other thanThis dynamic runway featured an all Asian model cast. By Asian, this didn't mean only East Asian or South Asian, the models spanned all shades, colors, shapes that represent the diversity within the community. The tongue-in-cheek collection skewered the various fetish, submissive, objectification of women are subjected to in entertainment and in real life.
The message the models got across was that they would crush these stereotypes and the idiots that imposed them in their claws or under the considerable, big heavy shoes and feet . To be honest, when I first read"Pornhub," I chuckled, wondering how a site where clothing seems irrelevant would be anything more than a stunt collaboration. After seeing Namibia's sex-positive, woman empowered history, and Pornhub's record of"woke" adult entertainment , this collection was very timely.
Many of my community are celebrating Lunar Near Year this week. As an Asian-American, of course, I have dealt with the stereotypes both professionally and personally, so this collection resonated with me quite a bit. The fact that the fashion is fun and sexy is a bonus.
