Half Chinese, half Vietnamese, Ali Wong goes there—there being subjects that make people squirm. Her caustically funny and raunchy observations perhaps pack a more forceful punch because they come from an Asian woman, who once recorded an album (Baby Cobra) while pregnant. Example: “Nothing makes me feel more powerful than when a white dude is eating my pussy. I feel like I’m absorbing all of that privilege and entitlement.” Besides exploring the hilarity that occurs in the bedroom, Wong wryly delineates the differences among various Asian ethnicities, discourses on feminism (she’s against it, but for funny reasons), and laments having to shit in the workplace.
