I feel the same way. It's easier for asians because people just go "oh, he/she is asian so it makes sense" and they think no more about it. When other races listen to asian music, people think it's weird and it's harder to get accepted with it. They can't understand why you would listen to "that chinese music". I too prefer to keep it under the hood, and only let my closest friends know about my favorite artist being ayu, and the general interest in japanese music. It's just easier, you get out of a lot of explanation.
