Commenting 'Oxford Study' Has Been The Crux Of White Male, Asian Female Couples, But The Study's Fake

Oxford Study on Asian Women Dating White Men refers to a 2010 Oxford University study called The New Suzie Wong: Normative Assumptions of White Male and Asian Female Relationships which became the subject of jokes on TikTok and elsewhere aimed to criticize and mock Asian female and white male (WMAF) relationships. Internet users spammed "Oxford study" in the comment sections of videos showing instances of the interracial relationship. However, despite the memes purporting that the study was about the tendency of Asian women to choose white men to date, the Oxford study in question was solely about TV advertisements and how some shaped perceptions of romantic relationships between white men and Asian women. Regardless, commenting "Oxford study" or making memes about the Oxford study surfaced en masse in 2024 as some couples embraced the stereotype. Asian women posted self-effacing content about their personal preferences for white men.

Remember 'Stick Figure Violence'? The Freaky Stickman Drawings Turn 4 This Year

Stick Figure Violence refers to an exploitable image macro of six stick figure cartoons that are bloody, gruesome and committing violent acts of murder and cannibalism against each other. Meme creators put text in the middle of the cartoons, using the stick figures surrounding the text to demonstrate how they or other groups of people emotionally react to the scenarios they've described. The cartoons resemble other, brutalist stick figure templates like Check Out How Hard I Can Pee from 2018. Although the six cartoons were created separately on platforms like Tumblr, the six cartoons weren't compiled into one template until November 2021 on Instagram.
