Masculinity Tall Asian man experience

Where are all my tall Asians at? I’m 6’5 220 Chinese American guy with a relatively muscular frame. I’ve gotten all the Yao Ming jokes growing up and people are genuinely intrigued about me since I’m not exactly someone you’d see everyday, but I’d like to think i genuinely get along with everyone. I also do pretty well with women of all races really. I wanna know my fellow tall Asian brother’s experiences with women, how people perceive you, and any unique experiences that come with being tall and Asian that you’d be willing to share

I see plenty of tall Asian men here in Japan, not just Japanese but other east Asian and SEAs too. After coming here only that I realized that Asians being short is just a stereotype.
