So I'm wandering the streets of Sydney, and I see a lot of Asian female/Caucasian male couples. What I hardly ever see is Asian male/Caucasian female couples. My question is... What the hell is wrong with us!? I'm not really attracted to white women, personally. I'm just curious , that's all. Im not asian, so I cant answer specifically. But as a woman of color, I can see a disparity as well, even though its in reverse. There are far more black males who choose white females than there are white males who choose black females. I think, personally , there is a stereotype invovled that goes like this... black women are loud and independent (so most males believing this would avoid choosing them) white women are docile and compliant (so most males believing this would flock to choose them) black males are better lovers and protectors (so most women believing this would flock to choose them) white males are more financially secure and poseesive(so many women believing this would choose financial stability) the prevalance of such stereotypes(none of which I believe, by the way) seems to have a huge impact on the cultural choices we see when people choose partners perhaps the underlying sterotype of asian females being timid and compliant makes them more desirable to asian males and caucasian males than the stereotype of the american female(period) who is loose and demanding and disrespectful Stereotyping sucks... There are strong women in all races. There are weak women in all races. There are hellashiously great lovers in all races, the person has to want to please their partner more than themselves. Any person who has been exposed to quite a few humans can figure out that most stereotyping comes from ignorance. I agree, but there are a surprising number of people who have had very little exposure beyond their own neighborhood, community , or city. Pity that. One of my greatest pleasures in life is experiencing or just being exposed to, different cultures, peoples, foods, music, ect. Humans can be quite entertaining, exciting, and joyous...when they're not being selfish, short-sighted and stupid. This world would be so much better if people, on the whole, looked upon each others' differences with wonder, curiousity and excitement instead of suspician(sp?), resentment, and hostility. |

To Msharmony,
I know what you are saying there are too many stereotypes. I live in a small town and mostly black men are with whit women and you dont see vey many white men with black women. If you do see them the white men come from other states or cities and are not from around my town. |

If you do see them the white men come from other states or cities and are not from around my town. I have dated black women before and I caught all kinds of poo from black men over it. Something about a fine dark sample of feminine beauty under the arm of a white man makes them get all indignant. Hell, my favorite person to despise is a white woman trying to come off black. I mean I can see where black people get pissed off at their kids wanting to be white. They should be proud of who they are and make a name for themselves rather than worry about personal image and seeing greener grass on the other side of every fence. Wanna bee's just tick me off. Why can't people just be themselves??? Heck I can't explain why I like Japanese women so much. Still, it is far better to outbreed than inbreed! |

How would you know if the white woman was raised by black folks and is not a "wanna be" since it is her life? Just because other white folks act a certain way doesn't make it right. Same with black folks who do not act black, they may have been raised by people who do not act black. This is the trouble with stereotypes, they are never absolute. |

I have seen more than one example of this BS. She is white, her parents are white bread and she is so "rebellious." Please do not assume I am pulling anybody's leg here. I got black friends who are totally CPT. I can be my whiteness among them and no one has to trip or flex or front. They can bump and Jive and rap all they want I could care less. I likewise got black friends who don't live in that groove. they live more like I do and not because I say that to make me feel more comfortable about anything. They just are the way they are. For a black girl to want to go all Michael Jackson and want to turn white? SHOOOO! SHAME ON HER! Hell, I don't like being human, of all the creature on this planet to be and I had to be part of the worst of the lot! OH NO! SELF HATING! SHAME ON ME!!!!! |

Me? I think American Black women are some of the friendliest, most ambitious and admirable people anywhere, but who cares what I think - you're not wanting to marry me But as for Asian girls being compliant - both of my sons date Asian women, from Vietnam and Thailand - trust me they can be pretty bossy sometimes, but they also place a high value on family, honor, loyalty - prolly moreso than what we see in American popular culture. That is attractive to my sons as it is how they were raised. As far as dating for Asian men - IDK the answer to the OPs question, but I have not really observed a descrepancy as my sister's best friend id married to a Chinese man and she is caucasian |

Anyway, Here's an amusing bit of racial stereotyping for you in keeping with your observation - * have been told I 'act' white (I dont even want to go into the stereotypes about how one race is SUPPOSED to act,,)* My ex used to play on a basketball team that had only 1 other white guy. Do you know how many times we heard "white men can't jump" |

I love asian, hispanic, amazonian women, white womens, and black womens. Can't think of womens I don't like.
As far as black women, I like 'em petite, black as tar and their real, natural nappy hair. She cain't mind her hair being messed wit either. I really am turned off when a black woman runs around with those dumb-azz wanna' be european swtyle wigs. Those things are so fake and nasty. Takes away from her natural beauty. I sure miss the 70's when black women liked looking black. Bring back dem big mofo fros! |

If an attractive black woman approached me or showed interest, I'd respond in a nano-second. No preference here.

although many people consider themselves to be rational people, uninfluenced by stereotype and media, their behavior says otherwise...there is only a small group of people, very small, that are uninfluenced..most of us are influenced in some way or another
getting to the point -- asian man/white women: won't happen in the us...why -- less to do with asian guy not wanting it, but the white women not wanting it...why -- social status/stigma/shame ...why -- media...why -- culture.... culture is very hard to change and it will takes years, perhaps decades for this to become reasonably accepted asian girl/white man: happens...why -- less to do with the white guy...more to do with asian girl...why -- social status/acceptance...why---media ....why -- culture...(case point -- take a look at all the US porn...white guy/asian girl...never the reverse...NEVER) This has become accepted and is the culture now i see what i see..in an ideal world, people would date based on whats on the inside, not out...however, as the world gets nastier and as the economy plummets...people are going to revert to the base, and that base is mostly things that we are brainwashed into believing since birth....or well, mostly what the asian girls and white girls are brainwashed into believing.. roko |
