12** Bob dates Kimiko because she's domineering yet caring and entirely unlike the stereotype.

14* '''GenderInverted''':
15** Tao, an Asian dude goes for Alice, an EnglishRose.

17* '''Subverted''':
18** Bob and Kimiko hook up, but it turns out Kimiko [[SilkHidingSteel isn't all that submissive after all]]...
19** Bob is white, and Kimiko is Asian...and Bob is quite boisterous...except Kimiko is also just as boisterous, her Asian nationality is ''First World Asian'' nationality, she is (at the very least) just as a successful a self-made career woman as Bob is, and she is also a feminist.
20* '''Double Subverted''':

31* '''Lampshaded''':
32** Kimiko jokes about the number of white guys who have hit on her.
33** "John is just out there looking for his Asian doormat as usual. You know the kind: [[AsianAirhead stupid]], [[ExtremeDoormat subservient]], [[FeminineWomenCanCook good cook]] and [[MyGirlIsASlut a pig in bed]]."

41* '''Implied''': All we know from the couple Bob and Kimiko is that the latter comes from a traditional family background.
42* '''Deconstructed''':

45* '''Reconstructed''':

47** Bob and Kimiko get back together when Bob and Kimiko both realize that she (Kimiko) also loves Bob because he's a true gentleman, not ONLY because of her fetish.
48* '''Played For Drama''': Kimiko is submissive because she was abused in the past, and she wants to use Bob as a LivingEmotionalCrutch.
