I think most Asian guys are intimidated (for lack of a better word) by non-Asian women. Maybe it's the stereotype or maybe it's due to the fact that the parents (usually from the old country) force that "stay within your race" mentality...

I'd have to admit that I wasn't part of that "intimidated" group because I grew up in the inner city and went to inner city schools, where there was a considerable amount of racial diversity and interaction... :)


I'm not an Asian guy so I can't say for a fact, but I don't think many are intimidated by non-Asian women (in the U.S.). I think it's the stay in your race thing many times. A Korean guy I know basically said that was the main thing.

I grew up in the city and went to inner-city schools too. My schools were diverse only to a certain extent. Surprisingly, I didn't go to school with many Asians until high school. In Philly, the school system is a little strange. Your school is determined by the neighborhood you live in. All of the schools in Philly vary, so some neighborhoods have crappy schools and some have great schools: curriculum varies for a large part from school to school. Usually, the neighborhoods with bad reputations have crappy schools.

When you get to high school, you can apply to schools outside of your neighborhood, because some schools in the other neighborhoods are better and offer different programs. For most of high school, I went to a school outside of my neighborhood because it was accelerated college prep. It wasn't a neighborhood school....it was public but admittance required application and acceptance. Only then was my school full of Asians...they were at least 40% of the total student body. In Philly, many people of similar races live in certain sections of the city. Some sections are mixed, some are not. My neighborhood is predominantly white and speckled occasionally w/ other races. :sweat: Your school will only be diverse if it's good and those from other neighborhoods apply to that school. :sweat:

niko2x wrote:such a shame, the opposite sex of the same race refusing to date one of the same race. Altho i have never heard of that, like you said it, so it's gotta exist. Being from places where caucasians are (to a point) minorities, i've seen plenty of asian guys dating black girls (myself included). when i was living in miami, asians were to few and in between, so you usually date what was availble, and the population was mostly hispanics and blacks. Here in DC, i also see some asian guys dating black women (altho not as much as miami). I don't know if what you said are in their radar or anything, one thing remains true: guys are guys, no matter if you are black white, yellow, green, whatever. if you are available, and you will be hit upon, it's just a matter of how you interpret the hit. brotha's are sterotypically typed as 'ladies man', with the gift of gab. asian guys (on the most part) tend to be more subtle in their game. Comments?


Hey. It is amazing...that's why I've decided it's not worth anyone's time. For instance, I don't have the time or desire to try and get someone of my own race to look "inside the box" so to speak. I figure there are too many issues with that one.

It may be where I am (CA--plenty of Asians here) or a different style. You have to kind of blantantly hit on me for me to get it LOL. But I can count the number of Asian guys who hit on me with one hand. So maybe I'm on their radar but I don't know it :-)

As for style's I've come upon. I find age makes a difference when I do find simlarities. The younger African American males tend to be really direct...like *really* direct LOL. So do the younger Latino guys. The white guys just tend to be more flirty.

KouSeiya315 wrote:I'm not thinking that even if they dated me that they would EVER bring me home. So I assume it's mostly a sex thing, LOL


That's another issue LOL. I don't want to be anyone's "experiement". I'm not saying you have to know right now that I'm the type of girl you want to take home...and I understand family pressure. My father wants me to marry a black man, period. But in the end, he realizes that I'm going to do what I'm going to do.

I don't mind being someone's "first" if it's about liking me as a person. But I'm not into dating guys who just want to see what it's like to date a black chick.

Luckily I have a pretty good BS detector :-)

Yeah...I'm told quite often that I need to be hit with a brick or a bat to know when I'm being hit on or flirted with. So whenever it's blatant, only then to I get the point, LOL. When I was in Japan, I was either hit on blatantly, or I overheard what was being said to me in Japanese before the attempt (a lot of times it's assumed that hakujin can't understand :nut:) :sweat: Not that it happened all too often, but I was hit on probably 5 times in 3 months. I didn't even expect that much, lol.

YES!!! I love him! I remember Russell Wong when he was on Vanishing Son! Damn why didn't they sell that on tape or DVD later :mecry: SO HOT


Except Russell Wong is not completely Chinese. His mother is white. I was his "stand-in" in the film "China Girl." I auditioned for the lead, but Abel Ferrara, the director would not use a Japanese-American to play the part of a Chinese-American. So, he picked Russell, who is not even 100% Chinese.


I've said this before. In the 2002 issue of People Magazines 50 Sexiest Men issue, the ONLY Oriental male chosen out of the 50 Brad Pitts and Mel Gibsons was Yo Yo Ma. What does that tell you about a society that views Oriental males in such a way that the best looking guy they could find is Yo Yo Ma?

See that's the thing. us asians aren't that direct when it comes to throwing lines out like that. (not that lines ever work. they are more or less comical than effective). It would be real funny to hear a line like this:
"say, Beyonce! Oh sorry, i thought you were her...".

We have game, but as a rule, we tend not to be that direct. So you have prolly seen you're line of "lines" from the yellow players, just more subtle.

Your dad sounds like a smart man. strong enuff to enforce you roots/and heritage at ya, but know when to lay off. Also, you mean 1st as in "cherry boy" or first as in 1st date with an african-american woman?

Oh lines...lines are so bad LOL. They only work if the person saying it knows how cheesy it is, so they add this sarcastic or funny tone to it. Subtle doesn't really work with me or actually a number of women I know. A nice middle ground is nice :-)

I meant first as in first date with an African American woman. I haven't met any in a long time or many in general of a first in the other way ;-) At least not that I know of. But I wouldn't mind that either.

:-)
8 Apr 2004, 05:32 #73
so no asian girl dating a white guy, or a non-asian girl dating an asian guy?

sigh.... so.. there is truth in it

I'll be sure to take that in consideration next time i try to mack ;) (JK), or maybe that's just it. Asian players need to be more direct at hits, so those in "the hunt" should hone their skillz more. I think it has something to do with our upbringing, and also our environment as well. In some parts of asia, people can be so polite, it pi$$es me off. As far as asians goes, i'm fairly direct.

I am Japanese american and before this gets too confusing I will lay it out as follows:

1. I have a female cousin married to a white guy
2. I also have a male cousin married to a white girl.
3. My sister is married to a Chinese guy (looks like Russell Wong a bit too).
4. I had another female cousin married to a white guy twice and divorced twice.
5. I have another female cousin married to a Japanese guy and they got divorced and she remarried to another Japanese guy.
6. Another female cousin married to Japanese guy
7. Another male cousin married to Japanese girl
8. I have another Japanese male cousin engaged to a Hispanic girl.
9. Two more cousins both male and female married to Japanese.
10. Another female cousin engaged to Japanese guy

For me...I have dated pretty much all. Japanese american, Japanese from Japan, Korean, Chinese, White, Hispanic, and even black. There are too many stereo types out there. Unfortunately, asian men suffer the non-romantic or sex symbol role. However...african american and hispanic males suffer from the criminal stereo type.

The guy who wrote that stuff appears quite bitter to me. It's too bad. Everybody has the right to date whomever they please.

Oh you know...out of all my male cousins...the shortest one (he's around 5'5) married the white girl! If she wore heels...they are about even or she may be slightly taller. They have two kids too. Both very cute.

I'm 5'11. My brother is 6'0. I have one cousin who's 6'3 another who is 6'2 and another 6'1. We all pretty much live in So Cal which is quite a big melting pot.
8 Apr 2004, 06:33 #76
woah......your family is really out there..... way to go.

you guys are all tall and in SoCal. like i said over at d-addicts... hawaii and California don't count. hahahahhahahahaha.... :crazy:

your cousin is my hero.... hohohoho!

I'm short, only 5'8" :(

i don't know about the majority of asian guys out there, but from the people i know i can say this.


most asian guys tend to be pretty "shy" when it comes to 'hitting' on a 'white' girl [i know this from ppl who admits this unconfirmed fact]. if there is a choice between a white or an asian girl, they'd rather go for the asian. of course other factors play a role to. say language barrier perhaps [some of the asian guy's english is HORRIBLE. i KNOW. i have a roomie from china who's english suck ass].

for me, that 'rant' in that link is just crap. he's just seeing it in an "ABC's" point of view. it's not whether god dislikes us or whatsoever. it's just fate man. FATE.

all i can say that it all comes down to a person's taste. it just so happens that the girls he 'went' after were more interested in 'white' guys. and i find it rather disturbing about the part where he disses ppl who 'tries to be asian from just watching animes' [this infuriates me the most]. i mean, wtf man. it's their interest! RESPECT that. if you can't, then you are a fuxing childish wuss.


God does not hate Asian Guys. not ALL asian girls dig white dudes. not ALL asian guys are unlucky.

take it from an asian guy who lives in asia HIMSELF.


**sorry, i was just rather disturbed when he disses ppl who watches animes. i don't like ppl who can't respect what other ppl's interest are which results to constant yapping of "childish behaviour, wannabes, etc."**


ooh, another long post from me.
:nut:

oh, if what he wrote was meant to be a joke, then it's a good one.
:hehe:
8 Apr 2004, 10:22 #79
I think personally I go for asian girls. Not sure if it's because I'm asian myself. I do find girls of other cultures attractive but my taste is for asian women. As far as that little site goes, I'm not gonna say it's right, but I'm also not gonna say it's wrong. I guess it really all depends on the person. For my sake, I speak fluent canto and I wouldn't mind living in HK so screw America, I'm moving! :hehe: :hehe: :hehe:
