STILL LOOKING for that perfect stocking stuffer for someone turns up a nose at the notion of dating Asian guys?
The Haikus for Hotties 2018 calendar is now taking orders. This is the third year this special calendar is being offered. Part spoof, part social commentary, it actually works as a calendar.
Haikus With Hotties is a calendar series that highlights the attractive and talented Asian men in media that often don’t get as much attention as they deserve.
The calendar counters the popular stereotype that attempts to emasculate Asian men: they can't be sexy, they can't be romantic, they aren't attractive. Or, to reference Steve Harvey, they aren't datable.
Haikus With Hotties is a series that celebrates Asian male hotness in all forms, mainly shirtless and lots of six-pack abs.
After the series launched in 2013 with Godfrey Gao, “Haikus With Hotties” released its first calendar in 2016 after a successful Kickstarter campaign featuring Yoshi and Peter Sudarso. 2017 brought a second calendar with a new twist: “From the makers of Haikus With Hotties now comes Haikus *On* Hotties.”
For 2018, the fans have been invited to participate in the fun and write Haikus *For* Hotties. What started out as a joke has become a nice excuse to feature a variety of Asian American men doing interesting things in the media.
