Not sure about other asian cultures or how consistent the polite at all costs stereotype is... in fact, usually my experience, asian women are so entrenched in work ethic, that when it comes to a guy not pulling expected weight, they can be fierce.
Filipina women, this is the weird thing, either are really accomodating at all costs, or don't fuck with me I will cut your ass, in conflict.
Mi madre being a prime example, to me. Left hook like a guatemalan welterweight.
