Victory! Peace! I would date and I haved dated people around the world.

But I would lie if I said that values (such as honesty and open-mindness) and education don't matter. It seems I mostly date people from the same social class or income bracket.

Sure I would.

Would a woman of another race date me?? Probably not. When you're an Asian male in the US, it's hard enough to get women of your own race to date you. bleh

An Asian male dating a non-Asian woman is rarely seen. Asian women date non-Asian men all the time. That's just the way it is. The Asian women don't even want us.


Haha how true. Gotta learn some techniques from those non-Asian men. Wink

Edit: Wow just realized I've just quoted someone from page 1.... Doh!

It does make a relationship easier, if your incomes and levels of education are similar. Also, if you have similar work schedules, and if you have similar things to talk about when you get home from work.... Doh!

On American TV commercial ads, when they show interracial couples at all, have you noticed that it's primarily a Caucasian man with an Asian woman. It has become something of a stereotype, I think. (Not that there's anything wrong with it.)

There's about a million fangirls who would date certain asian men if they got the chance... I wonder why it doesn't translate to them dating the average guys?

That's typical, since one probably works/interacts with that same group/bracket...

Yeah but do you want to date somebody from work? Beaten

I'd rather not! Mr Green

No, in my experience it has more to do with the fact the men (in general often Asian) tend to be more conservative/shy/not attracted when it comes to getting out of their dating comfort zone. When I was in Japan I had a few dates where the men kept on commenting how I wasn't skinny and how I wasn't interesting in cooking. Who wants to date somebody who is looking for something else.

LOL! That is kinda true...Here in the US, I find Asian men to be a little more feminine than non-Asian men and I always see Asian girls with non-Asian guys...Yellow fever!
However, if I do see Asian men with non-Asian women, the Asian dude's whitewashed. lol
