westothemax makes an excellent point in supplementing KirStang's theory. Both are good examples of socially constructed values ascribed to perceptions of ethnic identity. In this manner, western media or predominance of western culture, has conspired (intentionally or not, it doesn't matter) to render the Asian male ineffetual, unmanly etc. therefore unattractive or undesirable to anyone.
It'll be interesting to see what the next 100 years brings. Change can come about rapidly, especially with shifts in the balance of power, economics, and ensuing culture. Heck, maybe even 50 years, who knows.
