If I find the race based phenotypes of multiple races very arousing ( ex, Asian women because of their monolids, black women because of their melanin, white women for their paleness and freckles, etc etc) does it still count as yellow fever, because it comes accompanied by other attractions based on race too, instead of only lusting after that one race.
Finding a specific aspect of someone’s appearance attractive, and fetishization, are not the same. A normal person could find melanin attractive, and be fine. When they are eschewing any interest in the person other than them having dark skin, you are fetishizing them. The person in this comment is pointing out how this fictional guy only dates asian women, and brings her around to be shown, rather than to enjoy the experience with in a deep way.
Correct, it is a pejorative used in two ways, either people racist against asians claiming anyone who isn’t asian dating an asian, has yellow fever, or that person in fetishizing them. Just being attracted to a person is not the same thing.
this applies to other ethnic groups, hair colors, and many other things.

So yellow fever (and other terms) only counts if it’s fetishisation and not attraction?
