As good intentioned as you were might have been trying to be. It was a racist statement to make that "Japanese men are perverted".
I'm aware that you've made changes to the original post and that it doesn't say that anymore so kudos for at least listening to reason. I still take issue with how you see Japanese men but I only have my particular worldview combined with my experience of Japanese men to back that up which only makes it as valid as yours (which isn't valid at all).
Furthermore, it's still racist if Japanese people believe it like your girlfriend and her mom. It's just more socially acceptable if it's coming from them. This is the result of internalized racism.. but that's a whole other thread.
