Maybe its because they think that the stereo type for Asian guys concerning their package is true and want something more fulfilling.

....furthermore- you almost never see asian guys dating white women, but asian women dating white guys is a very common. Now whether you call it a "preference" for a certain race or not, the fact is when you choose a partner based on their race it is racial discrimination.


Dating "racial discrimination" Yup it happens!!!

Now suck it up will ya? smokin

Well, we have another site in Australia called RSVP. That site provides a facility where you can indicate your preference for the race of your prospective partner. There is a large proportion of female asian profiles where their preference is for white guys or races other than asian.

interesting you mentioned asian male stereotyping...I feel that's one of the reasons caucasian and non-asian males are often prefered by females. The "typical" representation, in western media, of the asian male is that of the "nerdy" guy, while caucasian males are depicted as the big hero. eg John Hughes' 16 Candles.

Like I said earlier, it would be interesting to get an asian perspective on this topic. I'm interested if any of them share my experience.

Fiesty, as others have already pointed out, it isn't just asian women who date outside of their race. Many women date outside of their race, just as many men do. I don't believe that every single asian women is looking for white men only, though. The woe is me attitude isn't going to help. Get rid of that attitude and get out and meet women. I'm sure you can find someone you want to date.

Hummm the only time I have seen Asian women that are specific with finding white men to be with was in order to get their citizenship to the USA.

In no way is it racism regardless if one chooses to date within their own race or another. It is totally a preference of what one prefers, maybe it is the way they have been treated or just whom appeals to them.

Either way there are plenty out there that will like/love you for whom you are inside as well as outside...whoa

You are correct, but my point is that it happens on a disproportionate large basis in the case asian females.

But it's 5 am here so I'll end my rant.
Food for thought anyway.

Fiesty, I have to disagree with your sentiment, though I am not the gender from whom you wanted an opinion. Nevertheless, I am an Asian woman and I feel compelled to share my thoughts since I belong to the classification to which you are unjustly flinging your derogatory comments to. Though I have to say that it is quite ironic when you look at it really, since the object of your ridicule is also the exact group you desire to derive a date from.

Now, I don't know where you have obtained your conclusions, but from all the places I've been to or have friends from around the globe, almost all the Asian women preferred dating Asians rather than other nationalities. In fact, in the hospital I worked for abroad, I only knew about a handful of women who dated "outside" of their kind, so to speak. Moreover, in my social circle, it was not a status symbol to date a "white guy". It actually has the opposite effect and my parents never encouraged the idea, which is why in all my years, except for the most recent, I declined to even consider it.

Conversely, I do acknowledge the fact that there are Asian women who actively pursue Caucasians given the fact that they think it is the fastest way out of poverty. However, that in my opinion is a different subject and I am not about to judge them for their choices, nor does anyone else who have not walked in their proverbial shoes, have a right to. I believe not one country in the entire world can say that no member of their society has not married for material gain.

Also, having grown up in a male-dominated Asian environment, I have not observed this difficulty you are having. The most meticulous and particular men I know, when it comes to women, are my best friends and my brother; yet they do not share your opinions regarding the matter.

Assuming that what you think or what anyone else thinks is factual or not, I believe it is not your place to tell us what to like or not to like, who to date or not to date. Would you not like the same courtesy and freedom to choose, after all?

Since having joined this site, I have seen people of all colors complain about not getting dates. Further determining the aspect that regardless of location, gender, religion or nationality everyone gets rejected, at one point or another. Some are rejected more often than others, but that is just a fact of life. However, the one constant that I have learned is that the people who whine about it are always found to be quite annoying.

Yeah, but you kind of went to the extreme.

You aren't even dating within your species!!!

What's wrong with finding somebody outside of your own race? Aren't they human beings, too? Racism happens when people refuse to intermingle with each other. Love knows no bounds - as the saying goes. Love should not be about race, creed or religion! Yes, the trend these day's is that some people prefer to have a relationship outside the 'considered norm' of their families idea of culture. It's when any culture, race, creed - whatever you define yourself as a human being - denies someone the right to engage with, have a relationship with or marry into another culture... or race, colour etc - this is real racism!!! Some people get so worked up about men & women marrying a different coloured person!? It's only skin colour... Some people still believe it's wrong to marry outside your own race or colour? That's racism in itself..! How dare anybody tell you that you can't!!! Shame on them.

What's the problem, really? Are people insecure & scared that their colour, culture & race are going to disappear into the mists of time... Are you afraid that there'll just be one uniform colour on the planet after each country has interbred with every other one, everybody's genetic codes getting intertwined? Worried we'll all end up with blue skin like an Andorian off Startrek!? :) Relax... take a chillpill. There's enough Asian women in the world to keep a lot of Asian men more than happy! ;) As nice as a person's colour is... it takes more than simply their skin tone to fall in love, get married & pop out a few potentially mixed babies!? :) Why is that so wrong? Because it isn't..! There's always somebody getting up on their soapbox screaming about the morality of restriction, segrigation, denial... That is pure racism raising its ugly head. The argument being that culture's are being protected... When you work in a hospital you'll see plenty of 'culture's' in petri dishes - some of which are not as beneficial to their own race as is assumed to be! The word culture is the same as the word Tradition. It's simply people long dead making it up as they go along because they didn't know any better at the time...! People talk about their culture's as if they've been divinely inspired!? We can all say that... but, thankfully don't.

Feisty...dude, you are in Sydney, Australia....whinging to mostly American posters on a US based site.

You're 40....in a racially diverse city, in a racially diverse country, and clutching at straws!


Have you considered the reason why Asian women are choosing not to date YOU, has nothing to do with your heritage, and more than likely your blinkered and prejudiced attitude???


Suck it up, Princess!


Are you Australian?...then go date an Australian woman....and quit whining about what you think you are missing out on.
