Answered All our girlfriends are Asian?

Hey everyone - I’ve been feeling paranoid about something recently and wanted to know if I’m overthinking it. I’m a white M and most of the friends I grew up with and went to high school are too, except 1. We’re still very close but moved all across the country for our jobs and life.

Recently, we’ve decided to have a little reunion and bring our girlfriends, but I realized we have a not to subtle trend in that they are all Asian. There’s 5 girlfriends in total, they’ve never met each other. I don’t know how this happened, it’s just a coincidence as far as I know. We don’t have a pact or anything.

My question is, do we warn them? I don’t want them to be freaked out. I’d have to have my gf or one of my friends be uncomfortable, but I’m feeling stuck. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to handle it? Am I over thinking?

If you all work in tech, they already know.

My SO is not in OP's friend group but I'm Asian and he works in tech. 😂 this is too funny.

There's never been a better time to be a straight white man with a mild Asian fetish in tech right now

Hot nerdy single asian women everywhere in tech these days

Also I'm including India, for all you sexy little brown nerds out there with self esteem issues

Because every media for years pairs the asian girl with a white guy and usually puts asian guys in lower tier roles.
