I Am Not Your Asian American Doll: a comic for AAPI Heritage Month 2023

I usually spend a lot of time editing and fine-tuning my comics so that they come across as polite and inoffensive. But honestly, I’m really tired of the way Asian cultures and countries are treated / talked about while Asian people themselves are excluded, and thought it was about time I really let my rage out lol.

bumping one last time before AAPI month ends!

I was very nervous posting this because of my decision to not restrain/limit my tone in writing this comic, but I don’t regret it one bit. Thank you for your support 💖🇵🇭🇰🇷

“I Am Not Your Asian American Doll” turns one year old today! To honor its anniversary and this year’s Maysia I’ll share some of the artistic choices behind the comic.

Two works by Barbara Kruger. Left: “Untitled (your gaze hits the side of my face)”. It is a vertical black and white photo of a marble bust of a woman in profile. Running along the left edge of the image, nearly each word its own line, in text boxes alternating between black and white, are the words: [Your / gaze / hits / the / side / of my / face.] Right: “Untitled (you construct intricate rituals which allow you to touch the skin of other men).” On the left is a black and white image of several men in suits fighting each other but still smiling. The text, each line alternating the color of its text box between black or white, stands to the right, each line askew. Text reads: [You construct intricate rituals which allow you to touch the skin of other men.]ALT

My main inspiration was the work of feminist artist Barbara Kruger, who you may know from “your gaze hits the side of my face” and “you construct intricate rituals which allow you to touch the skin of other men.” I wanted to pair really shocking, striking words with high-contrast monochrome images as she did.

Page 1 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A large pair of unsettling eyes with ringed pink irises stare at a nude pink girl with straight black hair. She is clenched in its oversized white fist. Pink hands of various shades reach up from the bottom of the page. Text reads: [FETISHIZATION IS NOT REPRESENTATION IS NOT APPRECIATION IS NOT RESPECT]. The large eyes are marked: [eyes as gaze & power, recurring motif.] The girl’s face is noted: [No eyes = no power.]ALT
Page 2 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A girl with light pink skin and black hair holds a pink glittery mask over her face. It is titled so a single weeping eye is visible. A thick black bar crosses the red background behind her. Text reads: [YOUR GLORIFICATION OF THE PALATEABLE AESTHETICS OF MY CULTURE IS NOT REVERENCE]. Mask is marked: [cute glittery facade serves as a surface level impression.] The finger placed over the mask’s mouth is marked: [“shushing” gesture — silence.]ALT
Page 3 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A chunky black silhouette stands against a pink background covered in images of singing kpop girl idols. Inside the figure, text reads: [AND EVEN AS YOU MEMORIZE THE PHONETICS OF YOUR FAVORITE KPOP CHORUS YOU STILL MISPRONOUNCE MY LAST NAME]. The silhouette’s face is marked: [nameless/featureless as opposed to the idols that receive attention.] An idols’ face is marked: [still, they have features but no eyes.]ALT

I chose eyes (and lack thereof) as a central motif. In conversations about art and media history, the “gaze” of the audience is a way to exert power. Who is made into the passive subject, and who gets to be the all-seeing viewer? Who is the subject being portrayed for? Hiding the Asian figures’ eyes demonstrates their lack of agency and establishes them as the subject rather than the viewer.

Page 4 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. An assortment of Asian food on pink dishes is arranged on a black background. Text reads: [YOU ENJOY EATING OUR FOOD BUT YOU DENY US A SEAT AT THE TABLE.] The notes label each dish: curry, tempura, gyoza, bao, katsu, kimchi, kimbap, tteokbokki, sushi, and ramen.ALT
Page 5 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. Two white silhouettes pose with a selfie stick against the Seoul skyline. White clouds and a plane stand in the pink sky. Below that, red fire consumes the background. Below that still, the background turns to black. Text reads: [YOU FANTASIZE THAT ASIAN COUNTRIES ARE A DREAMLAND YOU CAN ESCAPE TO… ALL THE WHILE IGNORING THE UGLY SCARS COLONIALISM HAS LEFT ON OUR HISTORIES… AND HOW WE ARE STILL PICKING UP THE PIECES IMPERIALISM HAS LEFT BEHIND]. The noteable tower of the skyline is labelled [Namsan Tower, Seoul.] A vertical arrow pointing down maps the color progression from light to dark on the page, reading: [art becomes darker (both visually and narratively) as you go deeper.] The higher part of the page is marked: [higher on the page = surface level.] The lower part of the page is marked: [lower on the page = going deeper.]ALT

The skyline on page 5 includes Namsan Tower, as some readers pointed out. (You may have also been clued in from the page’s respective alt text, which describes this as the Seoul skyline.) Though numerous Asian countries have been victims of imperialism several times over, Korea was specifically in mind here. It was Western powers who Korea was split into the North and South, and their colonization and exploitation has led to extreme poverty even today, despite the country’s glamorous facade and rising international stardom.

Page 6 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A girl with flowing black hair and pink skin weeps into her hands. Her tears are blood, and the wind seems to blow cuts across her body. Text reads: [YOU SPEAK OVER OUR VOICES, BUT YOU ARE SILENT AS WE ARE HARASSED AND KILLED]. The blood tears are marked: [simultaneously perceived as tears AND blood.] The figure’s covered face is marked: [no eyes visible.]ALT
Page 7 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A white background is consumed by pink and reds at the bottom. Four black panels form a two-by-two grid, each of them showing a sexualized Asian girl drawn in red lines. The first, a girl in an Orientalist belly dancer costume; the second, a girl in a maid dress; the third, a schoolgirl in uniform; the fourth, in an oversexualized qipao with a slit along the thigh. Text reads: [GOD FORBID AN ASIAN PERSON EXISTS OUTSIDE OF YOUR IDEAL CONSUMMABLE PACKAGE: QUIET AND DEMURE AND POLITE AND CUTE]. The annotations label the belly dancer and qipao girls as “oversexualized” in contrast to the maid girl and student as “fetishization of modesty.” One girls’ face is marked: [no eyes, no power.]ALT
Page 8 of “I Am Not Your Asian American Doll”, annotated in blue. A drawing of a girl with shoulder-length hair and a hanbok against a pink background. A black bar blocks out her eyes, white text on it reading: [I AM NOT YOUR ASIAN AMERICAN DOLL]. Her face is marked: [no eyes.] Her clothing is labelled: [hanbok].ALT

As many guessed, pink was chosen for its association with sexualization and femininity, although of course fetishization of Asian cultures affects all genders. I also wanted to pick a dark, shocking pink that reminded the viewer of blood; in fact, it is used to color blood here on page 6. I was really happy that the color palette was limited but still legible. (But drawing the large food spread on page 4 with only three shades of pink was definitely a huge challenge.)

A series of black and white thumbnail sketches arranged in a grid. Many of the pages of the final comic are recognizable: such as the food spread and the final page of a girl’s eyes being blocked out by a black bar.ALT

Here are some thumbnail sketches I made when planning the comic. You can probably recognize some of the final pages — and see how others evolved!

I want to thank everyone for their overwhelming support for this comic. I never could have dreamed of such an amazing response. To my Asian siblings across the world, you made me feel less alone. To non-Asian allies who lent me their ear, thank you so much for standing with us and listening to our struggles.

Usually I’m extremely careful to write my comics in a palatable tone, but for this piece I decided to not restrain my anger. I understood that by making this decision I would be sacrificing readership, and that many people would be much less willing to listen to me because of my tone. Nevertheless, I truly believe that any and all of the harassment I received was a small price to pay for such an honest piece to be seen.

Thank you all, again! Please consider supporting my most recent fundraising project, an Inumaki Toge themed fundraiser for aid in Gaza.

Final note: THIS COMIC IS NOT FOR TERFS 🏳️‍⚧️

Don't forget about the Palestinians.

Don't forget about them now.

Don't forget about them tomorrow.

Don't forget about them in a week from now.

Don't forget about them in a month.

Don't forget them next year.

Don't forget them in 5 years.

When the history books start to update, don't let them put lies in there.

When documentaries come out, boycott the ones who call this a victory for Israel.

When books release talking about soldier's personal experiences with Palestine, remember the victims. Remember the truth.

Don't forget about what we've seen.

Don't forget about what we've heard.

Don't let them tell lies about Palestine.

Don't forget about the Palestinians when the world tries to make this go away.

minionyellowbananas4bread-deact

don't let Palestinians become just numbers. they can't just disappear or be lumped as one. they are stories. they are friends, family, peoples loved ones.

hey I'm curious... all my fellow tickle community folks who also enjoy/create tickle-themed fanart (including images, fics, audio, any fan creations)...

How do you tend to portray (or headcanon) your current favorite character in tickly fanart?

I'm (mostly) a lee & my character is usually a ler

I'm (mostly) a lee & my character is usually a lee

I'm (mostly) a lee & my character is usually a switch

other (do tell!)

just show me the answers

Note this is not necessarily how you see them portrayed by the rest of the fandom, or how they appear in canon, but how they tend to exist in your own mind. Do you usually headcanon them as a Lee, Ler, or Switch?

Also "(mostly) a lee" applies to both lees and lee-leaning switches (same goes for lers and ler-leaning switches).

oh to have the joy of wrecking the shit of hom listen babe- his smile is everything and the world needs to see it you did awesome btw tickle headcanon reblogs
