This stub used to be a section in the Asian fetish article. -- Wzhao553 05:21, 7 January 2006 (UTC) reply

The phrase "Model Minority Myth" (and "Model Minority" in general) seem to conflate two apparently similar but quite different things:

1) Certain minority groups, particularly Asian Americans, are successful, and well-adjusted, with little or no need for social or economic assistance for that group compared to the majority group. 2) Certain minority groups, particularly Asian Americans, are successful, and well-adjusted, demonstrating that there is little or no need for social economic assistance for other, apparently less successful minority groups, as the first minority group serves as a "model" for the other groups to follow.

Policies that are aimed at only "underrepresented minorities" agree with the first premise while strongly disagreeing with the second. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.73.108.194 ( talk) 16:13, 29 June 2023 (UTC) reply
