Can this hand gesture be considered a hate symbol?

A gagwoman got into a controversy by the male community when she did a certain gesture with her hand. In Korea that gesture is used by extreme feminists to represent their denigration of Korean men having small genitalia. Arguably she was just trying to eat a small piece of chocolate and meant no disrespect to Korean men. And a government petition seems like too much. But are these men in their right to feel offended?

> like any other people, men also have a right to feel angry

> there’s been many racial stereotypes about Asian men, so their reaction isn’t coming out of nowhere

> even if those Korean men overreacted the response was to double down on racial stereotypes and shaming of men’s bodies

> Korean men are not white men so they can be considered minorities

She clearly has something in her hand. I wonder if these guys are as triggered over fun size candy bars.

Korean men are not a minority in Korean. I actually feel like that statement is more offensive.

This news has spread to other countries, such as in China. And they are making stereotypes about Korean men and shaming their bodies. Size stereotype of Asian men were created by white men to make themselves feel superior. This is also why there has been very few Asian male representation in the Western media that wasn't coinciding with preset stereotypes.
