I went through a phase where I was interested primarily in Asians. And so were many of my friends and acquaintances, however I realized that we had also gone through a bunch of other phases - blonde, latina, etc.
I also noticed the asian fetish beginning to lose steam in the last couple years. About your own attraction to white men and dislike of asian men, I would guess that part of that is due to the desexualization of asian men in U.S. society, particularly entertainment media. I'm not asian, but I notice it. It would only be natural for you to be more attracted to white men since they're portrayed as more manly. |

race is not an important factor when i look @ girls.
generally, asians tend to work harder and thus, more enlightened (haha, look @ my word choice) and i'm asian too, so i go w/ asians (i'm indian btw)

I'm white (hence the username) and I've had an infatuation with Asian women for a long time. I'm not entirely sure of all the reasons for my attraction, but the Asian facial structure is somehow alluring. Another likely reason is that I've had a long-lived fascination with Asian culture and a love of all things Japanese that was greatly increased by the recent boom in Anime and Manga. Also, Asian women, especially Japanese girls, seem to have a certain sense of innocence and purity about them, even when they're performing extremely explicit acts. This may be related to the fact that (from my observations) Asian women tend to appear much younger than they actually are due to their build and facial features, although there comes a point later in life when age seems to catch up with them quickly. I suppose my desire for Asian women is really just the pursuit of the psychological comfort of being with someone who is perpetually sweet and loving, and is largely based on stereotypes.
Oh well.

I consider most asian girls to be cute rather than "hot". For comparison purposes Pamela Anderson/Lee is usually considered to be hot while a girl like Natalie Portman is considered cute.
Ex: Hot = Slutty, dirty, attractive. Cute= Alluring, feminine, pretty. |

hellotheredear:You know what?That does make a lot of sense...there arent any asian men in the media..either mag/tv/books/radio. But also, Ive seen asian men in malls and stuff..they are tend to dress really "wanna be" like..you know with the white tank and gold chains, big pants..its okay if it looks natural on you but they try too hard.And in theyre cars when im driving by they like rev the engines and speed by when theres another stop sign a foot away.Retards and Wannabe show offs..or even to be too goody goody.im sure theyre are many other asian men who are decent but if have yet to find one.

I was never really attracted to asian girls... i always figured it'd be "weird" to not have somebody as lily-white as myself . But being that Vancouver is pretty much chock-full of 'em now there are more to choose from and some of them really turn my crank.

I like Asians, but perhaps for a different reason than most. I have a particular fondness for the chinese and japanese ones because they are in my bloodline. I feel cheated somewhat out on all that good "sterotypical asian upbringing" because my parents wanted me to grow up "normal" and never really taught me a whole lot about my heritage.
We're a big ol mix of a lot of ethnicities in my family, and rather than focus on one they just didnt talk about it. My grandma was cherokee indian.. did i get any info on that? nope.. Couldn't even get a tribe number to go to schol for cheap. A good portion of my family is dark skinned, and because there is a large percentage of african american in my bloodline we associate with that the most. Also my parents grew up around blacks, and in places where if you looked black you got treated that way. Back in the 50's my dad had a really hard time growing up and has passed a lot of those fucked up racial biases off to me (i'm working through it though). You try being the only "black kid" with almond eyes, olive skin and blonde hair.. It just didn't work out that well. He lived in the south too.. so he couldnt go in black only places without troluble, but he sure as hell couldnt pass off for white. This created a desire to not learn about his heriutage..despite the fact that he should have been proud to be a mixture of so many good cultures. *shrug* Fast forward 20 years when im born. Imagine going to a family reunion where everyone looked different. There were different languages and dialects being spoken. I was fascinated by it all, but since my parents didnt want me to grow up confused they never talked about it. In my family we were all related and loved each other..no need to talk about race and culture.. but when i started publ;ic school I got a taste of how the world is sometimes. "why is your dad so much lighter than you" "what's wrong with your hair" " why does your mom look that way?" I totally was not prepared for all that. the kids at school had me thoroughly convinced that I was adopted because I couldnt possibly be my parents child. They ethnicly looked nothing like me. I was totally devestated. Ever since then I vowed to learn more about my various heritages and cultures. It made me ashamed and upset to be labled "black" because I knew i was more than that.. I tried to tell anyone who would listen. I spoiled many a black history presentation when i was in elementary school I read book upon book about japan and chine where my dad lived for years before i was born. I talked to my grandmother about the reservation and even talked to my great grandparents about how it was to be herded into cities and adopting the anglo american and christian lifestyles to survive. I guess i'm somewhat at peace with it now, but I still feel shafted about the asian thing. So it's my goal in life to learn as much as i can about various asian cultures (hell im thinking about picking up a second B.S. in asian studeis) and maybe finally i'll be at peace with myself. Not quite the answer you were looking for is it? Sorry for writing a friggin book here.. |

I don't know what it is about asian girls that gets me. My friends at school say I think any girl that is asian is hot, lol, I guess I have a fetish. My current gf is white... but I dunno, there is something exotic and alluring about asians that really turns me on. mrap1, with his comparision of hot/cute, is very similar to how I feel. A lot of times I find myself turned off by the blond, fake looking "hot" girls but extremely turned on by the cuter girl next door types. Asians seem to fit this model more often than not.
Maybe I'm just weird? Who knows.

I grew up mostly in New Jersey (like forsetti), and, as an asian guy, it was natural for me to like the girls around me. The large majority of people of people there are whites are black. I grew up doing traditionally american things, and liking american girls....my parents were typically strict and when i was younger, i tended to rebel against anything asian. really hated how it seemed like school was EVERYTHING.
when my parents moved out to california, i began to learn all the wonderful things about asian culture that weren't so obvious in NJ. Now in college, asian culture is the craze at my school--UC Berkeley. Guys love the asian girls, anime, asian food. It's very much an asian dominated school, especially in regards to academics. in lots of ways, im glad my parents went out of their to raise me asian (tho i certainly hated it at the time!) For engineering, almost all the guys here like asian girls, whether it's white guys or asian guys or even the few black guys. Guys in engineering tend to find that asian culture--and of course, asian girls-- fits better for them and their lifestyle |

A lot of asians have been going to great lengths to change their "kung fu" image or as geeky engineers. Recently a film was made exclusively by asian actors ("Better Luck Tomorrow") to counter the asian male stereotypes that most people hold. Ehh, the movie was okay, but I appreciated it cuz for once asian guys were human. haha |

Generally I feel that Asians have a mystical quality about them. They have (for the most part) beautiful hands, legs, and eyes. I have nevr had the pleasure of dating an Asian. Latley I'm not looking for any type in particular. I am tired of the dating game - I have had some doozies in the past couple of years. Now I just have a bed buddy and she's amazing. I'll shut up now.

i believe that people are always attracted to opposites (opposites attract - we have all heard that before right) well then lets take some random white guy on the street sees some random asian woman... well just the fact that she is so different not only from him but form the type of women hes used to means he will be enticed to her to certain extent, so essentially i think it stems from something really simple like that... i think some of the posts seem to give people too much credit, most people are pretty simple about who they are attracted to
aka. hmm two legs......... shes my type =)

I'm Chinese and I've been raised mostly in areas with many Asians, so I have a tendency to go for what I'm used to.
As for other reasons why someone might like Asian women, I've always heard the stereotype that they're submissive and easy. And with the way you see typical "hot" Asian women running around in revealing clothing, suffocating under tons of make-up and highlighted hair, I can see why some might think that. If they're not hot, then they're cute and innocent. Guys are usually seen as masculine and whatnot, so I guess it'd be ideal to be with a "helpless" Asian chick. Plus, Asian women are stereotypically wealthy, which I suppose would be considered appealling. As for why Asian men are desexualized in the Western media... attractive Asian males are usually seen as pretty. They have a femenine quality to them that Asian cultures are drawn to. In the West, the media portrays an attractive man as being more "manly." Because of this, you'll see more Asian women with other ethnicities... but Asian men will tend to stay in their own race. |

I'm quite fond of the Japanese people for their interesting history and culture, needless to say that I find the women attractive too but that isn't the main reason. I find Japan's historical and religious background to be beautifully set in spirituality, this intrigues me very much.
I have no such love for the Chinese, though I'll admit that their spirituality was nice it isn't really there anymore. In my lifetime I've met many Chinese people, only one of which I actually like, all the others were hypocritical, mean, cold and unpleasant. I don't believe all Chinese people are like this but in my experience I've chosen to stay well away from them. And no, I am not a racist. Last edited by Mr.Deflok; 08-18-2003 at 09:34 PM.. |

There is much that is attractive about Asian womenin terms of looks etc but to actually understand them, their culture and remain committed is the more difficult thing. Languages have never been my forte so looking is as far as my attraction goes

I'm not into Asians, i dunno why, they're not my type, all the women seem to young and innocent, which i guess could be good, but it means they're not as sexy as say a hot blond European/American. I also think they all look very similar, i'm sure they'll all great people though! i'm just not attracted to them.

I can only speak for myself, but for me the big turn-ons are the eyes, the shape of the face, the straight black hair, and the (usually) small breasts with the tiny pink nipples. And - of course - the silky, soft pubes.
And I actually prefer Eurasions (or Amerasians?) - I like the wider, almond, eyes. For instance, I don't find Lucy Liu very attractive - I think her eyes are narrower than what my taste finds attractive. Of course, I'm also not stupid enough to not know that puts me in a very small minority - most guys go apeshit over her, so of course there's nothing wrong with her - just not exactly my "ideal". it's all so subjective. Now - Ming Na (from <i>ER</i>) - there's perfection.

A couple reasons in my opinion that a lot of asian woman like white guys: white guys are taller than asian guys, if you're tall, go to Taiwan or something and the chicks will fall all over you. I've also heard that westerners tend to be more chivalrous, like opening doors for women and those little things.
I'm asian, and i was born in the US, so i like white girls more, i date one currently. My room mate who is white always liked asian girls the best, and now he's in Shanghai. |

I think Damhna hit the nail on the head...An Asian girl's face is the most beautiful thing in the world. The eyes are both innocent yet devious. I go to a local college which has a rather high Asain population, and everytime I see an Asian girl that happens to look my way, its like I become frozen. There is an allure unique to Asian women that no other minority possesses. That and they do retain youthful looks rather well. I also think that when an Asian girls gets excited, its the cutest thing in the world, but it might just be me...

Personally, I've liked asian culture before I even liked girls so It just fits that I am attracted to asian women. I'm not picky though.. All races have very hot ladies...
My friend had a crude theory once.. Asian women like white men because they have a larger penis than asian men, and white women like black men because they have a larger penis than white men. That's why you never see porn with an asian man and a black woman... It's not my theory...
