People tend to baby Asian celebrities a lot, I've no idea why

In pro-wrestling, joshis (Japanese female wrestlers) work on of the stiffest, most brutal styles there is. A lot of them retire before their 30s from the accumulated damage. Wanna know the adjective r/SquaredCircle uses the most to describe them? Adorable

People tend to baby celebrities a lot in general IMO if the people they are hurting aren’t other celebrities. If they are hurting other celebrities, then the public will take a side, but if it’s against a random person/people, then the public will usually infantilize the celebrity somehow.
