Asian-American women are not OK, at least if you go by what they write about.
Well, what they write about in "notable" books, which often includes going through the funnels of getting published and winning awards in an environment where [minority] writers talking about [minority] issues is highly prized. It's entirely plausible that if you went by either raw numbers of asian-american writers or by aggregate sales they're mainly writing self-published romantasy or the like. Part of the reason for the sameyness and triviality is that asian-americans don't have much in the way of potential racial grievances, especially if affirmative-action is off-limits.
