This has been an interesting read. Since I've had one of my intro level literature classes deal with Orientalism and some of those other -isms (
) mentioned, I can see what the OP is getting at.
I don't know, I didn't see it as any sort of criticism (and observing something is not generally synonymous with 'railing against' something).
The OP has been saying that he's not judging anything, after all!
I'm not very good with the topic (though one of my profs specialized in portrayal and self-portrayal of asians in literature or some such), so to me it was just kind of a neat curiosity to bring up and remind me of one of my more interesting college classes
