Ms. Yeh is a great chef but her sickly sweet, manic smiley-cheery-I'm-just-as-cute-as-pie faux personality is nauseating and perpetuates old, destructive stereotypes of women as perpetual pleasers. To her producers: It's 2021, not 1951-please join us in the 21st century. It's fine to smile but she is over 30, not under 5, so her candy-voiced, Shirley Temple shtick is not only creepy but, I believe, destructive. By having this adult women continually acting like a toddler seeking approval from her parents-to the point of crouching down and posing next to her dishes, desperately straining to smile as big as she possibly can-the Food Network is doing a disservice to girls and women everywhere. Her forced smiles and girly delivery is negative role-modeling actually makes me feel sorry for her. Clearly, she is being coached to perpetually please viewers with her personality more than her culinary skills, but despite her cooking prowess and obvious intelligence, she still often seems like a child beauty pageant contestant who is desperately trying to convince us that she's cute. Does the Food Network coach male chefs to put on this sugary show? Nope. Sure they have to be congenial but Yeh's fake girlishness is creepy and just teaches young women/girls who watch the show that this is how to be liked/popular/successful. I've seen Yeh in interviews and she has a lovely natural, relaxed smile as well as a-shocker-typical, lower pitch voice of a 30-year old. In the #metoo era, the Food Network needs to consider the implications of pushing this outdated, destructive image of the perfect woman. Yuck.
