"Brown people feel threatened by white males. We make more and are generally more successful/powerful than any other race/gender combination."
If a white person said this I'm guessing you would be screaming "racist ignorant white trash!".
Or how would you feel if a white person said "Asian males feel threatened by white males. Generally more of their hot women date us while fewer hot white women date them."
Thinking you are somehow superior because of your race is one of the main causes of racism. Don't make that mistake.

And note that I didn't say Asian males are "smarter" or genetically "superior." It is because of customs, culture, and work ethic that Asian males in America are generally more successful. D4mn, when/where did you go to college?

No need to get defensive😉. I know what you were trying to say and I wasn't calling you a racist. I was merely trying to point out how a white person probably would be called a racist if he made the same kind of statement.
I do find your belief that white males feel threatened by asian males somewhat strange though.

To you it may seem strange because you are not an Asian male (I'm assuming). However, it seems like my friends and I notice that when one of us reach a cap or stop in advancement, it always seems to me a white male that "keeps us down." I guess sort of how black people feel when they say "the man" keeps us down. Difference is we don't let that stop us, we'll just move elsewhere or start our own thing =P.

LoL, I guess in the whole view of things, Asian males and black women seem to come up less and usually ignored in the grand scheme of interracials. I mean the whole blacks on blondes, more white women are going for black just cause, even though that black guy has a bigger dick isn't really true and mostly apply to AFRICAN born(non us for you dumasses) males. White women have an obsession for black guys cause parents suppress them and human nature is to go against the grain. White guys like asian women due to their fascination to the asian culture and Asian women are more likely to provide security which white males usually long for, something which white women usually don't provide. Also, while I wouldn't say that asian males are totally ignored, I say there are less interest in general, I have only seen few women who prefer to date only asians as I have others who prefer certain ethnicity, guess we just got the shaft in this contest. Although in terms of racial definition, the term ASIAN usually refers to chinese/Korean/japanese males, I'm filipino, although called Asian, I prefer the PACIFIC ISLANDER term due to it being more accurate.
Sad but true, alot of hot asian women wouldn't mind dating a white guy than a hot white girl to an asian guy, its due to the asian race being more open in general and have some fascination to the white race as the color white is viewed as beautiful compared to darker colors here in the asian countries, also western culture influences from movies and such, asian women have this thing for blue eyes. Oh well, Guess I'll go date a white girl to even things out abit. Also White women prefer tall guys which I can't really say all too common in asian background.
By "seems" I mean this. My friend is an investment banker at one of the bulge bracket firms. He is one helluva superstar. However, his caucasian counterparts, some of whom are quite frankly morons (I personally know a couple of them), are the ones being promoted. All the VPs and Managing Directors are naturally caucasian. A couple of Asian ex-bulge bracket bankers are recruiting him to their smaller firms, explaining to him that the reason why they left the bulge-bracket is that they were outrightly discriminated against.Originally posted by: hscorpio

Keyword is "seems". You just claimed in your other post that asian males are far more likely to be successful and now you are saying the white man is trying to keep you down 😕. At least when black people make this argument they kinda have the statistics of them being in the lower income brackets to support them.
I think white people generally make positive racial stereotypes about asians. Some white people think asians are automatically straight A students and exceptionally smart, whereas blacks might be thought of negatively. I would imagine these more positive stereotypes would lead to many white employers/bosses wanting asian employess over others.
Could you give more details of the times you or your friends have been held down by a white because your asian?
And to respond to Pnoy: White guys like asian women because they are in generally slimmer, are more "tight," and "submissive," not because of their fascination of their "culture."
And to reply to when it comes to black people, their problem is that they play the victim, and don't do anything about it. When Asians are discriminated against, they fight with will and hard work. I mean look at the Chinese railroad workers. Probably treated just as badly as blacks, yet you generally see Chinese-Americans living well. AND Asians didn't even demand "civil rights" or "equality." Same goes with most Asian immigrants. Story after story is that they come to America with nothing, yet in a few years they succeed.
Even at my CPA firm, a national mid-tier firm, it seems like very few Asian males get promoted. There are tons of Asian females in senior and managing positions, but there seems to be a void in Asian males.

sorta, not entirely. we just dind't have the numbers. our civil rights came along with the blacks civil rights. course actually we lagged. what people don't know is that far after blacks got citizenship and voting, asians could have neither for a long time after, with law after law passed against their entrance or eligibility for citizenship.
and early in the last century congress actually passed laws that made any american woman marrying an asian to lose her citizenship😛
Precisely my point. But Asians in general don't tend to "rebel" or demand things. I mean look at China; 1 billion people living under a communist regime, yet they are content. Look at Asian history; the people don't tend to "rise up" against power.
But in America there is no need for such action. Just work your ass off and buy a benz and them white peoples will be jealous ROFL.

Even at the college level, one of my white roommates told me during the fraternity rush meetings that he wanted one of his buddies to be in the frat. However, the rush committee told him that they had filled their quotas for Asians for that quarter (it was said not quite that nicely).

You say white people generally make positive racial stereotypes about Asians. And you are right. And because they expect the Asian to outperform, they feel threatened by them. And that is the point I was trying to make.

I don't remember where I read this but it stood out, not verbatim but something to this effect: "There are eight hundred Asian female anchors, one for each major metropolitan area in the United States. But there is only one Asian male news anchor in the entire United states. There are eight hundred thousand films and movies with Asian female love interests with white guys; there are about three films with Asian guys as the love interest of any ethnicity."
