Lotus Blossom in Full Bloom

The Lotus Blossom is one of the most humiliating reputation to  Asian females as it reinforces the concept that Asian women are  suppressed  and submissive toys that are meant to be played with and tossed aside by white men. Lotus Blossom is a demeaning stereotype to all asian women who take defense to this because not every asian women likes to serve and be submissive. In this video clip from Sayonara (1957) directed by Joshua Logan explains how Asian women serve and greet white men by playing the lotus blossom character in the film. The film is set in Japan during the Korean War. While on leave, combative American soldier Red Buttons falls in love with Japanese Kabuki dancer, Miyoshi Umeki.
