A lot of people said that Asian guys look like girls. I mean do other people always judge cultures that are feminine?

I don't think the fact that many groups of asian males tend to have less body hair can be called a cultural thing...

Having less body hair doesn't excuse dressing in frilly clothes and wearing mascara. Toshiro Mifune was pretty damn manly, body hair or no, but modern Japanese men just seem like a disgrace. Ken Watanabe is pretty cool, I guess.

Uh, that's not an Asian thing. People laugh at metrosexuals and emos for being feminine as well. Not all Asian guys look like girls either. Jackie Chan? Bruce Lee? Jet Li?
Those that do choose to look more feminine than they might get laughed at, but it's not specific to asian cultures.

Well, they do at the bar Saint Michael hangs out in. He's just butthurt 'cause they spurn his sweaty, hairy advances. ;)

Xenophobia is widespread in this world, as are many other forms of ignorance.

Irish, Scottish, Ukrainian, Polish, Italian, Greek, and other Euros(except the French) jokes are old and people are tired of them.

Likewise, asians make fun of hairy caucasians for being like monkeys. It goes both ways, I'm afraid.

People as reflexively racist as you exist everywhere, yes.

No one culture has a lock on xenophobic ignorance.
