On the whole Asian women/White men topic. Im one white male who probabably wouldnt date an Asian not because Im not attracted but for another reason. Two of my best friends one Korean-American and the other Thai/Filipino are Asian. Why would this matter? Though we havent talked about it directly I have heard from both of them in passing that it annoys them to see a lot of Asian girls with black/white/latin guys. I can understand that because my sister brought home a black man who had NO respect for my parents. Im first generation Hungarian-American and its taboo to treat a girls parents in a casual manner so the relationship didnt last.

jessica,

I wish I could meet more girls like yourself. I think you have an excellent outlook on life. I'm an AM and have dated WF before. So I can relate to your statement about "Being a mixed couple isn't always easy. We do notice that the odd chinese person gives us dirty looks/stares but it's a small price to pay for happiness.". I've also noticed it coming from the opposite direction as well, meaning getting stares from whites. Have you ever had any experiences like that?

If you're an AM, why are you in this page for Asian females and White males? Is there something you're not telling us? So, when is your operation?

When I say "fetish" I mean it in a general sense. If a person says they have a foot fetish, would you jump down their throats for using the incorrect term even though you know what they are referring to? A foot is not inanimate but everyone knows what they mean. I think of the word fetish as a preference to superficial features. If a person has a "fetish" for a particular look, it can be thought of "inanimate" because it doesn't represent the humanistic side. The appearance/shell can be thought of as inanimate but not the person. It's all the same, whether they only want an asian or a blue-eyed blonde. It's not the person inside they seek but the appearance of what they think they are getting (i.e. stereotype). I think it's sad that some people only want a particular appearance in a mate rather than someone who has good qualities. I believe the best relationships are those who consider their mates to be their best friends.

Andrew Xiaoliang Campbell:

Just curious, what was the point of your whole post? To say how much further ahead Canada is compared to the US in multicultural views.

You said it yourself, this is an Asian American website, but you turned it into a "my daddy can beat up your daddy" thing again. Yes, yes, Canada is SO much more tolerant and understanding of different cultures than the US. Blah blah blah. I've heard it all before. Canada this and Canada that. Please, you Canadiens really need to get over your inferiority complex, and quit bashing the US every time you have the chance. It gets really tiresome. You make it sound like Canada should be the role model country of the world.

Also, how would changing Vice Presidents do anything about changing this country? It almost sounds like you want the Vice President to have a heart attack. Man, that is pretty low.

Mr. Holley,

thanks for the response. I think it is less of a problem at least for me (college age). Good looking Asian women have had interest in me heheh. But in general perhaps you are correct to some degree in some parts of Asian that 'white' can be equated with upper class, perhaps more so in Japan as you stated. Japan lost WW2 to a Western country and following their historical militaristic cultural mentality the conquerer is superior. Well as Asia is getting richer and achieving economic parity with more western countries, perceptions will change and national/ethnic/cultural pride will appear. My theory for all the outmarriage rates in the older age groups is that the older Asian men went into traditionally all male careers such as engineering and computers whereas teh Asian women went into other careers that entailed more social interaction with white folks. About that Chinese woman you had a fling with from Guangxi well she probably isn't reppin' the entire Chinese female population in her worship of white men. Some people have their fetishes... i wouldn't mind dating white if she's fine enough.

Dim Sum Girl:

Andrew Xiaoliang Campbell raised good points about why those so-called "politically correct" terms are in use these days here in the us. It has to do with the repeated negative connotations of such words as "Black", "White," "Colored" and "Oriental." I guess such negative connotations don't exist in Canadian Culture like they do here in the US. I don't know whether that's a good or a bad thing, but I for one don't want to be identified using term that implies I'm a physical object or some object of a fetish.
