We Asians are really under-appreciated and not acknowledged in America. Why do Asian girls find white guys more attractive? Because the media portrays them more. Its the same in Hong Kong i guess since it WAS ruled by the British and most college students goto Europe after high school.

Long Post! WHY? Cause I dislike sellouts. Its ridiculous when you(me) work at the airport only on weekends and the majority of asian couples are between a white guy and an asian gal. It's sad. The death of the Asian male race man...the death! We must being to propagate my brothers. we must create a SUPER asian race!
I do see your frustration and i do hear that all the time: why is the asian girls dissing the asian guys and going out with the shey whitey? well, if that's the case, then do something about it and just keep on asking different type girls. Sure you may want the asian girls, but if that is all you are looking for, then you are excluding the 90% of the population in the U.S. The whole purpose of going out on dates are like test driving cars, you may try, but you don't have to buy. That way you find out all the idiosyncracies (sp?) about different kinds of people and once you find your "dream ride", you'll appreciate her all the better, whether she is going to be asian or not.

Who knows? once the asian honeys start seeing this asian flyguy going out with all the gweilo's/gaijin, they may wonder "and may not want ot miss the boat" and may start diverting their attention towards YOU. What they say is true: You can't score if you are available, but as soon as people know you have GF, then BAM! Girls would be coming outta the woodworks for you.

Yep. Another variation of the "forbidden fruit" scenario... Just like being married: if women see that you're wearing a ring, your appeal seems to go up significantly..... Heh.

I wonder why that is. I can think of a few reasons:

1. Forbidden fruit - get what you're not supposed to have...
2. Has been broken in - Maybe girls see guys in relationships as basically guys who have already been 'broken in.' Guys who some other girl have taken the time and effort to reform into 'boyfriend material.' Reformed, or trained. Being in a relationship possibly also means that the guy has some sort of responsibility, or has something good that another girl sees. In another sense, validation.

I guess it boils down to risk. People are risk adverse. Guys who have been in relationships represent a potentially less risky endeavor than those who haven't been in one. Of course, this presents that great chicken-egg problem. How can you have a relationship if girls only want guys who have had relationships? Heh, kinda like finding a job in a shitty economy.

Yep. My office mate (a hakujin) is the same height as I am, but his frame is bigger, thet's why he weighs about 200-220 lbs. as opposed to my 175-180 lb. weight...


6'1 is quite tall for somebody as old as you. Beaten hehe Sweat

Not that many tall asians back then.

I seem to have sidetracked the topic. Gomen Sweat

I brought in height to show that not all asian men are short and accordingly since non-asian women tend to be taller...this is why you don't see the two together. I'm trying to blow this myth apart since my male cousin is quite short and he married a white female.

Anyhow....hope this helps. Oh...just kidding bmwracer Big Grin

hey..guys..I dumped my b/f (he's white) of 3 yrs and you know what I don't think there's something special abt white guy. I was with him just because we've had this chemistry and attraction and not because he was white. The reason of separation was just one of those general reasons of why I shouldn't be together with him anymore. Nonetheless, there was a bit of cultural clash between us which was quite a hassle sometime to adjust. To be honest, I prefer available Asian guys rather the single white male out there but I have no idea why I was with him then, it must be one of those sudden love sparks..hehehehehe.. hehe

Only if she's the type who's afraid of committment (and there are a lot of folks afraid of that I think). Even the lamest woman knows deep down that the chances of getting a true lasting relationship from someone you have to "take" from someone else is very rare.

Absolutely correct! Applaud Risk is a big factor, but risk also plays into: if it ain't risky, it ain't worth it.

Being shot down has a down side, but that's all it is, it's not like you gonna die or anything. Actually, you can learn from your mistakes after you've been denied. You just gotta step up to the plate and try again. Nobody bats 1.000 all the time, and if they say they do they are liars. Even you alude to the fact it's kinda like finding a job in a crappy economy. you're not gonna find a job on the first interview, so go out there and fire away! Wink

Yea.... Why is that? hehe Its like whenever you are in a relationship, it seems like girls try to hit on you and stuff like that, but you got a g/f. Then when you dont have one, you have no luck... Shake Head why do girls seem to like you when you are in a relationship already??... Mad LOL

Weird how some stars seem taller than they really are. For example, Utada Hikaru! I always thought she was like at least 5-4 or something but it turns out she's only 5! lol

Well if they're thin that adds to the effect. And if they're leggy (like what's-her-name), that helps as well. Big Grin
