I don't think Chinese women are "submissive" at all.
In fact they are the most aggressive imo.
In China you can often see women scold or even beat their husband in public.
No women change their family name after getting married. It is ok, but I have known quite a few Chinese take their mother's family name, although their parents did not divorce. Some women "negotiate" with the husband: "First kid your name, second kid my name!".
They totally aren't.
The reason that stereotype exists imho is blending different asian cultures together, like postman said, and applying Western social norms about daintiness/femininity to Asian cultures.
I don't think there's any discrimination or hate towards E. Asians in America. Most people want them as neighbors and workers because they're non-violent, bring up your test scores, work hard, and bring good food into the community.
As far as dating, Asian men probably have a tougher sell than white and black males but if you got game, your race doesn't matter to most women from what I've seen.
Besides physical traits, Asian men usually do not go to the bars and clubs, and do not approach strange women the same way as other men do.
Even now, most Asian men (in Asia) only date women they have known for a while and it is not OK to talk to a stranger simply because she is attractive.
Asians in America have stereotypical perceptions attached to them (no need to rehash- they're widely known), but not the same extent of discrimination or negativity directed towards Blacks or Hispanics in this country.
Asians don't have the "danger" label, and thus often live in the more affluent areas of the country such as in Silicon Valley suburbs....Walnut Creek, CA...Bellevue, WA...Northern VA suburbs...Sugarland, TX- in the same neighborhoods with whites.
However, based on my experiences, I think the discrimination Asians face in many parts of Europe are harsher, to the point I wonder as an Asian-American there, "Why are these Asians living here?!?"

In the UK, at least, East Asians don't seem to face much discrimination. They're by far the least griped about ethnic minority, and usually viewed positively by anyone over the mental age of 11.
For example, South Koreans are well integrated into towns such as New Malden, the Japanese in North London. The degree of integration is such that many are unaware that there are large East Asian communities in these areas at all.
If there is any concern on my part, from what I can glean speaking to people in these communities, it is the fact that these East Asians have discriminatory tendencies themselves.

I used to live in Zurich. Most Asians there seem to be from southeast Asia such as Thailand and the Philippines. Locals have some negative opinions because some of them are involved in drugs and prostitution. When I was there I read a piece of news saying some Asian man was caught prostituting himself to a man!

Korean catholic girls are actually pretty submissive I find. They tend to be prettier on avg too.
