Racially-focused sexuality, racialized sexuality. Maybe sexualized racialism. I found a [site](http://www.queertas.com/survival/dictionary.htm) with a queer vocabulary that lists the following:

**Dark Chocolate** An African who is exclusively attracted to Caucasians.  
**Hot Chocolate** An African who is exclusively attracted to other Africans.  
**Milk Chocolate** A Caucasian who is exclusively attracted to Africans.  
**Potato Queen** Asian who is exclusively attracted to Caucasians.  
**Rice Queen** Caucasian who is exclusively attracted to Asians.  
**Sticky Rice** Asian who is exclusively attracted to Asians.  
**Vanilla Milk Shake** Caucasian who is exclusively attracted to Causcasians.

Are these labels for real, or did this come from someone’s idea of a satire?

Not to forget

**Stir Fry** A person who is attracted to anyone regardless of race or colour.

This is from a Tasmanian site.

I’ve heard it said of white guys who are only attracted to Asian women that they have “yellow fever.”

I’ve heard that one plenty, but I imagine “jungle fever” (white guys attracted to black women) has fallen out of favor.

So what does one call an African who prefers Asians, or an Asian who prefers Africans? I’m having a hard time coming up with a rice/chocolate food… Crispy chocolate, maybe?

One of the two has to be “Coco Krispies.” And maybe the other could be Nestle’s Crunch?

I dunno. I knew a Tassie lad who called himself a rice queen on account of he totally only dated Asian guys. I can’t vouch for any of the others though.

Notice for Africans they always say chocolate and for Asians they always say rice. But for whites the term varies: milk, potato, vanilla.

I have to admit “Sticky Rice” was kind of clever. Even though the racial labeling on the whole feels abhorrent.

Some of this stuff doesn’t make any sense at all. Why would Dark Chocolate be Black guy attracted to White guys? Dark Chocolate would seem to indicate Black guy only dating Black?

And when did potato start to mean White? I thought Potato Queen would mean someone attracted only to Irish guys.

**Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups:** Africans attracted to Hispanics

No sale! The color of the skin must correlate with the skin color of the person. Asian guys who act white are called Bananas. Black guys who act white are call Oreos.

Your system would mean that white guys get called eggplants because the fleshy part is white.

I guess I’m a Stir Fry then… but better make that a buffet because I’m often attracted to more than one.

Say, what about South Asian? I’ve been eating an awful lot of Indian food lately. Hmm. Curry…

Yes, that nomenclature is not internally self-consistent.

Here’s why. Whether accidentally or on purpose, sticky rice actually is used in at least one indigenous Asian culture to mean Asian-on-Asian love, though not in the sense intended in the OP.

In the Miao (I think) culture of southern China, they make a ceremonial preparation of sticky rice to celebrate female bonding, sisterhood. They mix white sticky rice and yellow sticky rice to symbolize the bond of women.
