okay....first of all....let me say......asian males are simply the most gorgeous creatures i have ever seen. i love all of you!
second of all.....let me ask a question to garner advice from the asian male perspective......
i am dating this beautiful AM. he just got out of a relationship of two years, doesn't want commitment at this point, but pretty much treats me like his girlfriend. i have a key to his place, i helped him with naming his new puppy, etc. we have a terrific time when we are together...laugh...talk....can say anything...etc. then come the weekdays...he doesn't call me at all and sort of acts like he doesn't know me. i'm so confused. he says he doesn't want to fall in love, etc. but then his actions are all to the contrary. mmmmm....? what is the asian male perspective on why this might be? is there something in the culture that i am unaware of that would cause this reaction? help.
love to all the beautiful asian males out there - positive energy!

Lotus ^.^ : Always nice to hear from you gals up north, Iâve met a handful of Canadian women over the years and always think theyâre great! Yes, Montreal is definitely the most European city in North America, Toronto is a bit of a mix with a large Italian and Chinese population, Iâve never been to Vancouver or BC so Iâm not sure what itâs like there. From my personal experience, it does seem to me that European and Canadian women seem to be a bit more open-minded about dating non WMâs, I agree that itâs partially due to diversity of cultures within Europe, even in Montreal, you have both a strong French and English presence. So I think this cultural awareness lends to more IR dating. There are also a lot of very open-minded women from the States, but in general the bulk of the population falls into the ãmy dream-man is a 6â 3ä white male with blue eyes, drives a truck, wears a baseball hatä, etc... It doesnât matter if sheâs European, Asian, Latin or African, if sheâs been totally Americanized, an AM is going to have a tough time. My cousin has dated a ton of women in NYC and he more often than not, seems to end up with a woman born outside of the US. Iâm just thankful that there are WFâs like yourself, in the States and outside of the States that are open-minded enough to give me a fair shot! Good luck to you and your AM boyfriend...

But back to the Europe topic. If they are nicer I think the media probably has a part in that but also the way people live in society. Sometimes they are more accepting of others. I don't know if this is going to sound way off, but it is also a smaller continent and people travel more and get to see different ways of life more than we do here. Just a thought...

I think you're correct. Europeans have, not always,but learn to live with other nationalities due to lack of space. Europe still doesn't have alot of minorities so an average European probably is more curious than hostile or racist. But I have to say, countries with rapidly growing minority populations are becoming like America. I know in France they can't stand blacks and Arabs and England, they don't like Pakistanis, Indians, blacks, in Germany, Turks. I think in couple of decades when Europe has a sizable minority populations you'll see more racism. It has started already.
Been there

"I don't know if this is going to sound way off, but it is also a smaller continent and people travel more and get to see different ways of life more than we do here. Just a thought... "
As a person who grew up in many cities around the world and has travelled to over 30 major cities all over Europe Asia and Africa, I can vouch for your theory, 100%. In Europe and Asia, communication and cooperation between neighboring nations is crucial to economic and political prosperity and survival. America on the other hand, is like a monolith, a huge entity that is geographically and politically isolated, and hence not so well informed. Think of the US as a huge clumsy multinational corporation and the various European and Asian nations as smaller businesses that hold only a small share of the market each. To share info and resources is critical for their survival, hence the increased cooperation amongst Asian nations and the formation of the European Union.
Also, George W. Bush's BONEHEAD foreign policy speaks volume about your theory of isolation. This guy is a redneck who doesn't know jack about foreign relations. And he has hired a bunch of like-minded buffoons who will just nod and agree with any dumb idea he comes up with.
I must say that I wasn't shocked at ALL with the events of Sept 11. I was appalled, but not shocked. America had it coming, with it's constant meddling and bullying in the international arena.
Anyway, I'm sorry I went off-topic but I must say that I agree with you totally.
I agree

JJP,
Why is it news to cheer about? Do you think its a good thing that the Asian-American race may not even exist in a few more generations (minus the FOBz,no offense)? I'm not racist and i'm cool w/ interracial relatnshps (been in a few myself) but I definitely think its a problem that more than half of both AMs and AFs are dating outside their race. I'm sure a lot of those relationships are out of true love, but if those stats are true, you can't deny that there must be a lot of self-hatin asians in there too.
In your quest to prove that AMs get as much play as other men, don't lose any pride for your own culture and people by saying its a good thing that we don't marry our own. Truthfully, i think those stats reflect the older Asian American generation. The younger Asian Americans like myself who went through the whole Asian Pride era, will probably decrease those percentages in a few years. Although I won't let something like race dictate who i fall in love with, when i picture my future wife, i picture an asian woman. But who knows, a non-asian woman might come along and change all that.

Southern Hemisphere AM,
I agree that Canadian and European women are more receptive to dating AMs than American women. I live in the NYC area now but lived in Toronto and Montreal for 10 years, and France for 2 years. I think white francophone (Quebec and France) women are the most open to dating AMs, as I had a REALLY busy social life when I living in Paris and Montreal. The way I was looked at by interested beautiful French women, it was obvious it wasn't considered a disadvantage being AM; if anything, being an AM was considered especially sexy! *smile* But now being in NYC, I definitely feel a difference at how American WFs look at AM; Americans are more conditioned to look at each other in terms of race, and AMs weren't high on the sexy list. That's just a fact of American history, though that is changing. As for Australia, I had great surprises visiting in 1990. I was always under the impression that AM/WF dating was taboo, frowned on and nonexistent, because of prevailing (at the time) negative attitudes towards Asian immigration. But I was REALLY shocked when I was hit on by some gorgeous Australian women in nightclubs in Surfer's Paradise. So I'll always have fond memories of OZ; that goes to show you how stereotyping ANYONE is really stupid! *smile*
