Asian women rock...

Still must suck to be an asian guy though 🙂

I remember a commercial back in the day where there is a wooden box upside down with the words "Virgin: Speak your mind" on it (virgin the company) and an asian guy with big head phones stands on it and says something like "Yo, I been watching these dance shows on tv and I got a question, I see all these white guys and girls, black guys and girls, hispanic guys and girls and asian girls dancing, but no asian guys! Where are the asian guys? I like to dance"...then he proceeds to do this funny dance...haha it still cracks me up
 
I dated my first asian girl like 3 yrs ago...we lasted a year and half...and my next 4 gf's were also asian....before my first one i always swore id never date an asian girl. They're cool until u get the import model...bla...never again....im also asian btw.

Why would it suck to be an asian guy? I kinda like being asian....
 
I don't get why white American guys think all or even most Asian women are hot. They are not. There are just as many ugly ones as there are ugly white women, black women, and hispanic women and boy are they ugly.
In addition to that, Asian girls are prone to looking hot from a distance then ugly up close. The hot ones are really hot though, so carry binoculars.
 
Asian men get shafted all the time. I have no proof, but I swear my kind would get picked last from a dating pool.

<-- luckily already engaged.

I agree with this about 102.5%.

The thing is the Asian girls I know won't get feminist on your ass because they are completely ignorant of any issues or politics. It's just the way they are brought up. You are more likely to find an aware black or white woman because they are more deeply buried in Western culture.
 
the cool thing about Asian women is they don't seem to show aging as quickly. An Asian woman in her 30s or even her early 40s doesn't look much different from an Asian woman in her 20s.

i don't think that's very true for the ones i know... you could tell them about feminism and crap and they wouldn't care. this isn't a matter of ignorance, it's a matter of values and beliefs.

That's what I meant by the way they were brought up. It's their culture. It's different from American culture and Trinidadian culture and British culture. IE, Western. I can understand that different cultures have different values (hooray for Ant302), but it's annoying when I talk to a girl and she doesn't even know who Trent Lott is.

Edit: Obviously there are exceptions. I know one Asian girl who is an artist and consequentially politically and socially aware, even if she is a pompous ass (but a hot one) 🙂.
 
I'm surprised they don't come out with Feminine Hygiene Products targeting the Female Asian Population with brand names like "Lotus Blossom"

The girls that are born here are more feminist...the ones that are born back in Asia are more non feminist...they were brought up to respect the husband and males in general...and isnt that the way it should be?? =)

works for me...

add:
3. hard working
4. know how to use a wok(removes his from his head)
5. not that many live in trailer parks and b1tch and whine about how life dealt them a bad hand

 
like someone mentioned, it is a marketing tactic. We send out brochures at the company i work for and we make sure to put at least one person of color and one woman on every brochure. You'd be surprised at the complaints we get if we send out ONE brochure without someone from a different ethnicity in a picture.

I don't agree, I'm asian and I don't see my dating field limited at all. It's like I'm in my home court when it comes to asian girls. :Q😀

Yeah, I used to go for white girls when I was a kid in HS but now that I'm 23, I can kind of see the effects of aging catching up to them. Once I went to get a haircut and my stylist said I don't look anything like my age. 🙂 When I get married I want to have an asian girl.

Yeah thas the way it should be. My cousin just recently married a girl that came from here from Vietnam about a year ago and its amazing how their relationship works. She doesnt go anywhere before calling him and asking for his permission. And if he says she has to stay home...she does. When her friend (also from Vietnam) i just laughed...i was like..wtf??!! =)
