Gee, would you like to reinforce stereotypes?

No, really. I've been looking for housing and on this one message board this ad was posted:

Reply to: XXXXX@xxxxxxx.com
Date: 2005-XX-XX, XX:XXPM PST

Beautiful secluded room in top floor apartment in XXXXXXXXX near XXXXXXXXXX; hardwood floors; washer dryer; stylish living room; room is a little small; clean and quiet; full kitchen; maid; with two young male professionals;prefer asian female; should be quiet, easygoing & nice.

Like all Asian girls are supposed to be "quiet, easygoing, and nice"? Oh puhlease. What the heck is up with this stereotyping? Are they looking for "tiny Asian girl who give good massage, make big men dinner, and make no sound when ask to bend over"? Good grief, guys.
