Hey College Kids! Did you write about the BBCM or make a mention of me in your academic writings? Send me your essays and I can reprint them on the site anonymously or otherwise! Come on! It's better to reprint those essays than just file them away where nobody will see them ever again! And hey, all you kids who wrote me with so many questions that I diligently answered for your "all-nighter" papers-- you owe me your work! You can't hide from me! Even if your papers are critical of my site, send them in!

Critiques from an MIT class (I found these surfing around the web)
Critique #1 This guy must have written this in the computer lab five minutes before it was due, because he didn't even get the name of my site right.
Critique #2 Another critique that made me cringe-- doesn't anybody appreciate my PhotoShop work?

Anjali's undergrad paper from UC Davis, Asian Am 100 Class

Sorry folks, these articles aren't available on the web. You are going to have to buy these books yourself (GASP! Actually buy books? No way!). And since good ol' President Bush cut federal spending on public libraries by $39 million (as if the books at the library aren't old enough!), why not donate a copy to your local library when you are done with it?

Yell-oh Girls Anthology edited by Vickie Nam

Published by Harper Collins
My article is called "A Big Bad Prank: Broadening the Definition of Asian American Feminist Activism"

"Pranks and Fake Porn: Doing Feminism My Way" in the Catching a Wave Anthology by Northeastern University Press. Coming Spring 2003! (Attention Professors! Use this in your class!)

For teachers and professors...

On several occasions, my site and writings have appeared in class curriculum. Sometimes I speak on panels. I also offer participation friendly guest lectures chocked with visual aids.

In some classes, the site is assigned for analysis with the "Yell-Oh Girls!" Anthology.

If you are interested in having me come for a guest lecture or panel. Or would like to know what I offer in a guest lecture so that you can recreate it in your class, please write!

A note to students and those with questions...

I am happy to answer questions for your papers. I can offer you my ideas and opinions on why I built this site. BUT--I WILL NOT WRITE PAPERS FOR YOU!

I often get questions that are clearly answered in the Manifesto link. If you have questions after reading that link, then feel free to ask me.

Just because I am a Chinese American woman doesn't mean that I am an EXPERT in the following. I suggest you do some good old fashion research for these topics rather than ask me for information.

All of the following subjects I have been asked about in the past for research purposes. For the record, I am not an EXPERT in:

--	Japanese Anime
--	the Mail Order Bride Industry (I can point you to some articles and places where I went.)
--	Japanese Pop Culture
--	Japanese Sex Culture
--	Gender relations in Asia
--	Tracy Quan
--	Asian or Asian American movies or publications (I may have seen or read them, but again, I can't offer any authoritative voice).
--	Third world working conditions, labor abuses (You are better off going to some books and organizations that deal with this issue, than to me)
--	Places to travel to in Asia
--	The feminist movement in Asia
--	Government systems in Asia
--	Economic systems in Asia
--	Relationship Advice for you and your partner of a different ethnic background
--	The history of China
--	How to find a wife online/ which introductions services are the best
--	Reading lists for various Asian American/ Women's subjects (I know a lot of the books out there, but your professor would be a much better person to ask than me.)
--	The history of stereotypes in America

Now that that's settled, I expext no more emails from desperate students with papers due the next day (Yeah right!).

So sorry to be so cranky about this, but it's a lot of pressure on me when people want me to help them when I can't.

For the foot fetish people...

For all you weirdos who found the "Memoirs of An Anti-Geisha" link through foot fetish sites (I never saw that coming!)-- Stop asking me to rub my feet on your face! Sickos! Geez! And stop sending me pictures of feet. I don't care for them!
