I’ve had an epiphany - and it has something to do with Phoebe Cates’ tits.

As far back as I can remember, I’ve been particularly attracted to Asian women. Actually, I’ll narrow that down even further to Asian American women. And beyond that, my wife is half Filipina. I know, I know - big deal. So it’s not all that uncommon. Still, it’s a predilection and I recently made a discovery that may explain it.

Yep. It’s Phoebe Cates.

I was just a kid when Fast Times at Ridgemont High was released and I remember seeing the film at a very young age. Of course that movie has an unforgettable pivotal scene involving a red bikini. Upon first viewing, this scene is striking. And once this image is ingrained in your mind, you may not even remember that Judge Reinhold is rubbing one off as Phoebe Cates peels away her top.

Warning - boobies ahead:

I bought the Fast Times DVD recently and I watched it this past weekend. I thought, “Damn. I used to have such a crush on this girl.” And who wouldn’t? She’s got perfect funbags. But I think there’s more to it.

After watching that scene, I searched for Phoebe Cates on IMDB. I scanned through her other movies and her bio, and that’s when the realization struck. She’s half Filipina! Coincidence? Perhaps not.

If this was the first time I was witness to flawless boobies, then perhaps this scene helped dictate my future preferences. I do realize that Jennifer Jason Leigh’s cans are also exposed in the movie, but they literally pale in comparison (sorry Jennifer).

So my theory is: I’ve been subconsciously attracted to Filipina American girls my entire life and didn’t realize this desire until I hit sexual maturity. And it was all because of Phoebe Cates’ tits.
