Louis C.K. is getting a lot of negative media for his routine which goes after survivors of the Parkland High School shooting in Florida, which left 17 dead.
Getting less attention is the part of C.K.’s stand up when he pokes fun of the genitals of Asian men. You know, the tired penis joke that has been done again, and again and again. It’s what old outdated comedians fall back on when they lack any original material.
“Why do black guys have big dicks?”…“Asians have small dicks … because they’re women,” C.K. is quoted as saying as saying by BuzzFeedNews on stage at a Levittown, New York Comedy Club.

“You know why Asian guys have small dicks. ’Cause they’re women. They’re not dudes. They’re all women. All Asians are women. And they have big clits, really big clits, and when they have sex they just stick their clits in each other’s pussies and then they procreate using math,” he said.
The jokes came to light when a 48 minute audio recording of the set appeared on You Tube just two days ago.
Among those who have condemned C.K. for his routine is social media star Eugene Lee Yang.
Every time a comedian like Louis C.K. makes jokes about Asian men, I have to stop having amazing sex with my penis in order to try and count the number of times I’ve heard that tired stand-up before, but I can’t because I suck at math. pic.twitter.com/8KZSurz9Wi

Reaction has been overwhelmingly positive to Yang’s comment.
It’s so strange to see a dude most women are afraid to be in a room alone with joke about other dudes being bad at sex. How lacking in self awareness must he be— tanya (@tanyatlh) January 1, 2019

I once laughed so hard I cried at a joke that’s punch line was like “ then I stabbed her “ because the set up was so good, you don’t have to be politically correct with your jokes, you just gotta be funny, this isn’t funny.

Well, I've always found Asians to be the hottest anyway so. ?

RE: Louis CK Disses Asian Men in New Routine: His jokes are as tired and limp as his dick probably. The motivation for his tired and not-funny jokes is his trying to prop up his not-funny dick. What a prick.
RE: Louis CK Disses Asian Men in New Routine: Honestly, scumbags guys like that do not bother me.
What I find strange is a part of Asian American women seem to like this and do the same game.
