Encyclopedia > Rice queen

A rice queen is a person, usually a white male, who exclusively dates Asian, particularly East- and Southeast-Asian males. Usually, but not always, it is an older white man who dates younger Asian men.[1] The name could be considered gay slang. Caucasian is originally a geographical term, meaning relative or pertaining to the Caucasus region of eastern Europe. ... This article deals primarily or exclusively with the definition of Asian in English-speaking countries, mainly referring to immigrants or descendants of immigrants living therein. ... Gay slang in linguistics refers to a form of English slang used predominantly among LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) people. ...


Related terms

It is one of a number of terms in which queen is used as the head of a compound and relate to racial characteristics. They are considered offensive by some:

  • potato queen - a gay male who exclusively dates older Caucasian males and sometimes associates older age with status and wealth (often used to describe non-Caucasians; potato refers to the wrinkled and bloated state of aging people)
  • snow queen - a gay male who exclusively dates Caucasian males in general.
  • latka queen - a gay male who exclusively dates Jewish males.
  • curry queen - a gay male who exclusively dates Indian or South Asian males.
  • bean queen - a gay male who exclusively dates Hispanic/Latino males.
  • size queen - someone who only dates or sleeps with males with large penises.

A similar term, "sticky rice", is used for Asian males who exclusively date other Asian males. The term "Rice King" is used to describe heterosexual males who seek Asian women.[2]
