"Popular porn star Mika Tan recently posted an entry in her MySpace Blog answering some frequently asked questions. I think you will find her comments quite interesting. If Mika has you in her "friend list" on MySpace, you can read the blog entry HERE. If not, you can read the full text here by clicking.
23 September 2006 Saturday
I got this message and since I have been asked these things before, I thought I might as well respond publicly. His questions are all very valid and thoughtful and hopefully, I answered all of his questions.
Hi -
A guy at work told me recently that my girlfriend "looked like that porn chick Mika Tan". I was curious enough to do a little research, and I discovered you've appeared in the following movies:
• Slant Eyed Sluts
• Black Dicks in Asian Chicks 2
• Fresh Asian Sex Sluts
• Whoriental Sex Academy 3
Perhaps hundreds more. A quick read of your website includes notable bits such as the fact that your family has encountered you holding ice on your crotch because of the lingering pain from your scenes. Evidently you are enthusiastic in your work. So based on this research and your physical resemblance to my girlfriend, I am a bit horrified. For her sake. And I am compelled to ask you the following questions:
1. Do you believe that porn tagged with racial themes (which looks to be a huge amount) is inherently 'racist' in some way ? For example, asians make up less than 5% of the US population, yet asian females account for a huge slice of porn production. Is this a form of racial targeting of a vulnerable minority, and is it abusive?
Porn "DVD lines" or titles are all compiled to hit target markets. The racial titles have gotten a little crazy over the years with companies trying to find different names to refer to the same thing: Asian girls. DVD's cannot have the same title, so I think these production companies sit and study a thesaurus to come up with eye-catching, simple, yet ORIGINAL titles. When I am booked for a scene, all I only told the genre (i.e. fetish, asian, schoolgirl - so I know what kind of wardrobe to bring) and the titles are done later when the movie is released. I almost never have any idea what the title of the DVD when it is being filmed, unless it is a sequel.
You must understand that the racial target is not directed to the performers...the target is the consumer. Many, many men absolutely LOVE Asian women. PERIOD. The movies are made for them. I am in the business of fantasy fulfillment. There is a large demographic of military/business men who fell in love with the quintessential "Asian whore" while in Southeast Asia. You would not believe how many times I have been hired to speak in broken English. They sometimes have language coaches on set to help the more Americanized Asian girls speak with Asian accents. We are performers. I said it before and I will say it again, porn is not necessarily for men like you who have an Asian girl already. Porn is for the guy who loves Asian women and cannot get one. For some, porn is the only outlet to get the kind of sex they like.
2. Could it be argued that the type of work you do perpetuates and strengthens the absolute worse stereotypes in this country about asian women ?
What are the stereotypes? I have been a dominatrix (several times over), a prostitute, a schoolgirl, a businesswoman, a CEO, a doctor, a nurse...the stereotypes in porn far exceeds race. You can take these same characters I have played and put it on a blonde or a Mexican or a black girl. All pornchicks have all played the same fantasy role at one time or another. I have played very strong and very submissive roles.
3. Do you believe it increases the prevalence of sex tours to asian countries, and increases the odds of asian girls being targeted for sexual abuse?
Sex tours in Asian countries are being perpetuated by these Asian countries and companies who exploit these Asian women. American porn does not have anything to do with that. Those have been going on longer than porn has been around. Some people seem to believe that Asian-based porn is the only window men have to see Asian women in a sexual way. Prostitution in Thailand, Vietnam, the Phillippines, and South Korea have been around for a very long time, keeping many thousands of GI's happy since the early 1950's.
Okinawan schoolgirls have been targeted my US Marines for years. Japanese porn who show all the schoolgirls in uniform might have a hand in that one. I don't know.
I hope that for every guy who gets off and rolls over to sleep at home, that one less guy trolling the bars with the intent of getting rid of his sexual frustrations on any woman who happens along.
Rape is an issue of control, not sex -- by the way.
4. Do you believe the rough 'gonzo' style and mysogynist attitude of most porn (google also shows you on 18inchesofpain.com) and its focus on the 'pain' inflicted on the actresses promotes women as objects of sexual humiliation?
I also work on a website called meninpain.com and meanbitches.com. Men are the subject of humilation there. Please get it in your head that porn does not target only one sex or one gender.
After almost 10 years in the business, I have noticed trends toward more mysogynistic roles. I think it is the change in American society's views on women. Women are more powerful than they have been over the last 50 years. Most television sitcoms show the wives are the smart ones, while their husbands are simple-minded dolts. While women's roles in the home and the workplace are changing, the average porn consumer is still between 30-45. The stronger women get, the more men want to fantasize about them being put back in their place, so to speak.
Porn tries to accommodate different kinds of niche markets. One gonzo DVD costs about $16K to produce. They do not make DVDs unless their market research shows they will be able to sell their film. Porn does not create fetishes, it caters to them. I believe there is a market for average Asian men having sex with pornstars to the point where I kerplunked $15K of my own money to produce a DVD, but I cannot get distribution because no company so far feels that it is a strong enough market.
4a. Do you think that consumers of porn will try to reenact these scenes with asian sex workers or girlfriends? Do you think that some of them have lost any idea of what a 'real' sexual relationship could be?
I would hope some people use porn to spice up their sex lives! Lots of people whether or not they watch porn have a twisted view on what a normal sexual relationship should be. I dated a guy in college who never watched porn and yet he loved spitting in my mouth and wanted anal sex all the time, because his ex-girlfriend liked it. People learn for other sources aside from porn.
5. Do you think porn could some day be colorblind? Or will porn consumers in this country always seek racial combinations that highlight domination / submission of one race to another ? Especially Asian women?
Porn will never be colorblind, because the men who shop for porn are looking for their type of women. Guys who like Latinas does not want to pick up a DVD with black girls in it. The end consumer is the person we want to make things easier for. This is kind of a repeat of Question #2.
5a. Finally, I see on your website that you promote donations to victims of Hurricane Katrina.... in the name of a black porn performer.
He is a dear friend of mine who had gotten together the resources to get a project going to help others. I do not have the time nor the financial means to be able to startup a project, so I decided to help. Speaking of colorblind...why is his color an issue?
5b. Did you know that a vietnamese residential community in New Orleans is being poisoned by a huge toxic landfill, right in their backyard? Mayor Nagin is turning a deaf ear. http://www.navasa.org/
It would appear that in disasters as well in porn, asians are the de rigeur recipients of a colossal screwing over.
You know, there is a strong tone of anti-racism in your letter, but yet I am offended that you are victimizing the Asian race. Let me tell you, Asians stick together. We are are not victims. Our strong work ethic, sense of family, loyalty and trust, and our success-driven upbringing undoubtedly results in us being the best at whatever we decide to do. I appreciate you worrying about your girlfriend and I am not sure what race you are, but please do not think only Asians have been the only race group that have been victimized. The Kurds, American African slaves, Rwandans, among other race groups targeted for genocide have it bad too. And if you want to really get down to it, American Indians lost their whole damn country. To me, racism in and of itself is not as big of a deal as BIGOTRY. There are going to self-serving assholes in this world and who they target is not always an issue of race. It is just whoever is the weaker.
5c. Final bonus question....If you could do it all over again, would you?
Absolutely. The only thing I would have changed is that I should have saved more of it. Some of the dumb things I spent money on: I traveled extensively through Europe and Asia when I first started, bought a new car for a stupid ex-boyfriend, a $1250 Queen Amidala costume for Halloween, which my cat pee'd on and I ended up throwing it away! That sucked.

Okay....lemme get this straight....this dude's girlfriend resembles Mika Tan -- and he's horrified!?!
<sigh & a head shake>
Some guys just don't get it.
And WTF!?! 18inchesofpain.com?!? Gah!
18 inches of ANYTHING would be pain! 18 inches of Subway meatball sub would be pain! So...if I boned Mika like 9 times in a row...would that count as 18 inches of..."is-it-in-yet?" ?
Mika good.
Posted by: Krazy4Kobe on Sep 28, 06 | 5:10 am
Although I've never been a fan of Mika (to me her looks are simply unremarkable), this interview gives me a new respect for her. Good on you Mika!
Posted by: Dr. Lee on Sep 28, 06 | 5:36 am
I try to believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question, but some of these questions are just dumb. This guy could do a little research on Mika, but he couldn’t do a little more research to answer his own questions or better yet, ask his Asian girlfriend.
I find Mika very sexy. The interview shows that she does have a brain. A lot of men who see women in the sex industry fail to realize that some of them have intelligence and do have a life outside of their work.
But some of these questions are just dumb. This guy could’ve Googled the answers for some of these. But this schmuck has an Asian girl and I don’t. Boo. And U.S. Marines aren’t sitting around on Okinawa looking for schoolgirls to target. That really offended me because I was a U.S. Marine stationed on Oki. Many Marines there are there with their families or dating/married to an Asian chick, or don't like Asians. The few instances that have happened makes the news quick and puts a black eye on the Marine Corps, even if the incident was fabricated. If there is a serious incident involving a Marine, it quickly makes the news worldwide and the protesters come out wanting the U.S. to leave. You can’t keep that stuff secret. Besides, there are plenty of legal women and Filipino hoes to be had there.

What a tool. I'll bet that guy voluntarily gave his testicles to his girlfriend and is really in touch with his feminine side. I'd say "I'll bet he votes Dem, " but I don't want to bring politics into this.
That said, let me say Wow! I also have a new respect for her. She really puts that guy in his place. I've always taken issue with people who claim that I, as a proud Asiaphile, am somehow victimizing Asian women. Because what that means is that the accusers believe that Asian women can't stick up for themselves. So who's doing the victimizing?
Let me step off my soapbox now...
Posted by: Curtis G. on Sep 28, 06 | 9:35 am
I was a U.S. Marine stationed on Oki.
Me, too! January to June 1989. Camp Schwab. Wasn't really impressed with the bars there, but Korea and Thailand...yes!
Posted by: Curtis G. on Sep 28, 06 | 9:38 am
Ha, me too. 2002-03. Camp muthaf****** Schwab. The bars really suck, so do the girls who work in them.
But anyway, that guy is clueless on who's really the victim. Little girls who have their virginity sold are victims. But if the economic conditions were better in the region, probably half of the women would do something else and the other half would continue selling their body because it's quick and easy money.
Posted by: Candyman on Sep 28, 06 | 11:31 am
Here's a question:
Do you like the girl because she is hot, or do you like the girl because she is Asian?
Hot girls are Asian but not all Asian girls are hot.
I find it a bit...I don't know...odd that a guy would watch porn soley for the girls' Asian features and not because she is hot. Are there guys out there like that? Doesn't matter how beautiful or ugly the model is, as long as she's Asian? Maybe some people do get off on race above beauty. Like foot fetishes, I just don't get it.
Dr. -- as "unremarkable" as Mika looks, it's her performances that are really very remarkable. Her hottness comes, as the questioner mentions, from her enthusiasm. You've got to be a pretty dedicated performer to take 18 inches of pain!!! :S ha!
Posted by: Krazy4Kobe on Sep 28, 06 | 12:00 pm
Mika was really impressive...some of those questions I mean give a freaking break! But Candyman you're so right, everytime one idiot in the military does something moronic the whole military is looked at like a bunch of repeat offenders. It's too bad. It's like if a guy in my company goes and exposes himself, the whole company would be labled perverts (I only did it once by the way). It's too bad because 99% of the military is just there to do it's job while that 1% like in any societal group gets the press (abu ghraib)and ruins it for the entire group instead of just for themselves. Sad.
Posted by: darklighter1 on Sep 28, 06 | 12:13 pm
I have to agree the questioner had some pretty weak questions and did little research. As someone with a Chinese wife I can say without a doubt that there is nothing weak about Asian women. They can be as sweet, shy and demure and alternately as strong as an ox...all the while never losing their femininity. Mika neglected to state she was a Chinese food delivery girl in one scene...a special delivery indeed.
Posted by: onegameref on Sep 28, 06 | 2:16 pm
Isn't it said that in Asian cultures that the man is the boss outside of the home but the woman is the boss inside the home? So it might be the other way around -- the woman might be the one wanting to re-enact the scenes! Oh my!
What's this dude talking about in Q4 -- "Do you think that some of them have lost any idea of what a 'real' sexual relationship could be?" ??? Just what constitutes a "real" sexual relationship? I bet this guy has one hell of a boring 'white bread' sex life!
OGR -- same here...my g/f is Chinese and she ain't doin' nothin' she doesn't want! It's a good thing for me there's not a whole lot she doesn't want to do! ha!
Posted by: Krazy4Kobe on Sep 28, 06 | 9:39 pm
Not only is the guy a bonehead, but one answer Mika gave was pretty off the mark as well. "Porn is for the guy who loves Asian women and cannot get one" definitely ranks as one of the dumber things I've read on this board.
Posted by: Clint on Sep 29, 06 | 2:08 am
The questioner is a dumbass.
Is it open season on Mayor Ray Nagin?
- just because of his comments about the WTC site?
He's a MAYOR...he's not FEMA...he's not the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
Nagin has almost nothing to do with the government's failures that exacerbated the NO disaster or the actual cleanup. Its not fair to blame him for toxins in a vietnamese neighborhood without having him there to defend himself...
Are you seriously going to ask a *ahem* - PORN STAR, about state politics?
DON'T BE RIDICULOUS.
I was suprised that Mika's answers sounded so intelligent though - almost as if she's been a student of sociology or social justice.
AS FOR PORN TIED WITH RACIAL THEMES...
Mika is correct. Porn targets the consumer. It is unfortunate that the titles belittle women in general as "sluts" and "whores" - as well as the racial components which are stereotypical , BUT, the simple fact is, porn is designed to "shock and awe" the mind into purchasing it.
The problem with porn is that it perpetuates beliefs in men's minds that women are merely objects to recieve blow jobs and quickies from, as well as many other beliefs such as
- desire for pedomorphic (young females) even to the point of pedophilia
- racial stereotypes
- female gender inferiority
PORNOGRAPHIC FILMS are probably the only thing people (especially Americans) have to train them for sexuality. Its not like you can take people totally oblivious to sex and just lock them into a room...Porno is a training ground.
Posted by: ChineseLoverMan on Sep 29, 06 | 3:30 am
this is too deep for me...by the way do you guys notice her breast job is not very good. she is pretty and a very good performer but her boobs bother me. Dr. Lee is this your perception also? her nipples seems to be too low.
Posted by: lawboy on Sep 29, 06 | 7:22 am
Yep, this is a common problem with the usual type of boob job performed in the US (overfilled saline above the muscle). Submuscular implants avoid this problem, but can sometimes have the opposite problem (i.e. nipples too high on the breast, like Francine Dee).
Posted by: Dr. Lee on Sep 29, 06 | 8:16 am
Maybe I've missed it as I don't want a whole lot of hardcore porn, but I've really never noticed any racial sexual stereotypes. In the porns I've seen black, white and asian women are all just as freaky and all just as willing do anything they can sexually.
The only thing racial I've personal observed is the actual race of the actors.
The titles may be non-PC but like Mika pointed out they just describe the races and look of the actors.
Posted by: kaine on Sep 29, 06 | 11:57 am
I thought the FAQ section from Mika's website was pretty interesting. If she truly writes the text herself then she really is a very strong writer.
This particular section where a person asked if she ever tried to break into mainstream acting when was she just starting out was pretty enlightening of what a young aspiring actress goes through...
"So I tried my hand when I got to Los Angeles. It was a nightmare. I had a talent agent make me pay $2200 to her son, a photographer, for a portfolio (which I never saw) who then told me that I never looked "Asian" enough to find me work.
3 different directors whipped out their penises during readings...And this is all before porn! I did give the last one a blowjob, thinking that it was the reason why the last 2 did not call me back. I mean, how did Keanu Reeves, with his limited acting ability get in, right? Well, never heard back from the third director"

Because what that means is that the accusers believe that Asian women can't stick up for themselves. So who's doing the victimizing?
Let me step off my soapbox now...

I was a U.S. Marine stationed on Oki.
Me, too! January to June 1989. Camp Schwab. Wasn't really impressed with the bars there, but Korea and Thailand...yes!

Ha, me too. 2002-03. Camp muthaf****** Schwab. The bars really suck, so do the girls who work in them.
But anyway, that guy is clueless on who's really the victim. Little girls who have their virginity sold are victims. But if the economic conditions were better in the region, probably half of the women would do something else and the other half would continue selling their body because it's quick and easy money.

Here's a question:
Do you like the girl because she is hot, or do you like the girl because she is Asian?
Hot girls are Asian but not all Asian girls are hot.
I find it a bit...I don't know...odd that a guy would watch porn soley for the girls' Asian features and not because she is hot. Are there guys out there like that? Doesn't matter how beautiful or ugly the model is, as long as she's Asian? Maybe some people do get off on race above beauty. Like foot fetishes, I just don't get it.
Dr. -- as "unremarkable" as Mika looks, it's her performances that are really very remarkable. Her hottness comes, as the questioner mentions, from her enthusiasm. You've got to be a pretty dedicated performer to take 18 inches of pain!!! :S ha!

Mika was really impressive...some of those questions I mean give a freaking break! But Candyman you're so right, everytime one idiot in the military does something moronic the whole military is looked at like a bunch of repeat offenders. It's too bad. It's like if a guy in my company goes and exposes himself, the whole company would be labled perverts (I only did it once by the way). It's too bad because 99% of the military is just there to do it's job while that 1% like in any societal group gets the press (abu ghraib)and ruins it for the entire group instead of just for themselves. Sad.

I have to agree the questioner had some pretty weak questions and did little research. As someone with a Chinese wife I can say without a doubt that there is nothing weak about Asian women. They can be as sweet, shy and demure and alternately as strong as an ox...all the while never losing their femininity. Mika neglected to state she was a Chinese food delivery girl in one scene...a special delivery indeed.

Isn't it said that in Asian cultures that the man is the boss outside of the home but the woman is the boss inside the home? So it might be the other way around -- the woman might be the one wanting to re-enact the scenes! Oh my!
What's this dude talking about in Q4 -- "Do you think that some of them have lost any idea of what a 'real' sexual relationship could be?" ??? Just what constitutes a "real" sexual relationship? I bet this guy has one hell of a boring 'white bread' sex life!
OGR -- same here...my g/f is Chinese and she ain't doin' nothin' she doesn't want! It's a good thing for me there's not a whole lot she doesn't want to do! ha!

Not only is the guy a bonehead, but one answer Mika gave was pretty off the mark as well. "Porn is for the guy who loves Asian women and cannot get one" definitely ranks as one of the dumber things I've read on this board.

The questioner is a dumbass.
Is it open season on Mayor Ray Nagin?
- just because of his comments about the WTC site?
He's a MAYOR...he's not FEMA...he's not the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
Nagin has almost nothing to do with the government's failures that exacerbated the NO disaster or the actual cleanup. Its not fair to blame him for toxins in a vietnamese neighborhood without having him there to defend himself...
Are you seriously going to ask a *ahem* - PORN STAR, about state politics?
DON'T BE RIDICULOUS.
I was suprised that Mika's answers sounded so intelligent though - almost as if she's been a student of sociology or social justice.
AS FOR PORN TIED WITH RACIAL THEMES...
Mika is correct. Porn targets the consumer. It is unfortunate that the titles belittle women in general as "sluts" and "whores" - as well as the racial components which are stereotypical , BUT, the simple fact is, porn is designed to "shock and awe" the mind into purchasing it.
The problem with porn is that it perpetuates beliefs in men's minds that women are merely objects to recieve blow jobs and quickies from, as well as many other beliefs such as
- desire for pedomorphic (young females) even to the point of pedophilia
- racial stereotypes
- female gender inferiority
PORNOGRAPHIC FILMS are probably the only thing people (especially Americans) have to train them for sexuality. Its not like you can take people totally oblivious to sex and just lock them into a room...Porno is a training ground.

this is too deep for me
...by the way do you guys notice her breast job is not very good. she is pretty and a very good performer but her boobs bother me. Dr. Lee is this your perception also? her nipples seems to be too low.Posted by: lawboy on Sep 29, 06 | 7:22 am
Yep, this is a common problem with the usual type of boob job performed in the US (overfilled saline above the muscle). Submuscular implants avoid this problem, but can sometimes have the opposite problem (i.e. nipples too high on the breast, like Francine Dee).

Maybe I've missed it as I don't want a whole lot of hardcore porn, but I've really never noticed any racial sexual stereotypes. In the porns I've seen black, white and asian women are all just as freaky and all just as willing do anything they can sexually.
The only thing racial I've personal observed is the actual race of the actors.
The titles may be non-PC but like Mika pointed out they just describe the races and look of the actors.

I thought the FAQ section from Mika's website was pretty interesting. If she truly writes the text herself then she really is a very strong writer.
This particular section where a person asked if she ever tried to break into mainstream acting when was she just starting out was pretty enlightening of what a young aspiring actress goes through...
"So I tried my hand when I got to Los Angeles. It was a nightmare. I had a talent agent make me pay $2200 to her son, a photographer, for a portfolio (which I never saw) who then told me that I never looked "Asian" enough to find me work.
3 different directors whipped out their penises during readings...And this is all before porn! I did give the last one a blowjob, thinking that it was the reason why the last 2 did not call me back. I mean, how did Keanu Reeves, with his limited acting ability get in, right? Well, never heard back from the third director"
