Craigslist: Please Disclose if You're Asian

So, as you know, Matthew and I are headed to North Carolina sometime in January for about a year while he completes his clinical requirements. Due to this upcoming move, I've been scouring the internet for housing options. Craigslist, of course, has been a rather interesting resource. As I was perusing the listings from today, I stumbled across this little gem:




Sounds fairly normal, right? Well, sort of. Here's my question: Why is it relevant to disclose that the roommate is a 'straight Asian male.' I don't get it? My husband thinks it's because we're, (meaning me and the rest of the Asian population), are either angry or crazy—and that's why it's relevant. Oh he's sooo funny. Har. Har. Har.
