WHAT YOU SAY

Asian Unity Guy:

While i greatly applaud your unity amongst Asian including indo-pakistani however, i deplore your jealousy!

One things you must realise is that this is the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! land of the brave and the free! its a free country with different races hence everyone are bound to mix. pure and simple!

Unlike the country where my parents and indeed most of us came from there were no whites or black people! just Asians.

I would simply advice you to pack up and go back to where you came from if you don't like what America has to offer!

I hope you realise that millions of people all over the world are waiting to replace you when you do live.

I am really sick and tired of Asian moaners who are mainly immigrant and complain about American way of life!

Asian Unity Guy,

Let me start by saying that I like the name. I would also agree with you that there often seems to be no tolerance for Asian unity in American society. Rather it is our job to blend as quickly as possible and downplay our heritage because of its inferior nature.
I would argue though that the ratio of sell out girls still overwhelmingly seems to be more wth Asian girls and less with Indian-Paki girls. Sadly I say this as a Chinese American with many friends of every color. As far as my observations go I would say Asian girls are 50/50. Half with Asian guys the other half with non-Asian. I would say Indian Paki girls are still around 80/20. Most being with Indo-Paki guys and a few with non Indo-Paki guys. I would also venture to say that you will find many more Asian girls with black guys then Indian girls. This is mainly due to the high number of black/Filipina couples out there. While I realize that other Asian ethnicities date black men, it has been my observation that Filipinas easily make up the majority. I think the disproprotionate number of Indian girls you see with black guys is actually a flawed observation. 8 out of 10 times the Indian girl in question is a Trini, Guyanese or a Jamaican. Indians from Trinidad, Jamaica, Guyana and Surinam can hardly be considered Indian by culture. Rather they are Indian by genetic default. There culture is basically a Carribean one with a small influence of Indian culture. This also goes for the handful of Carribean Asians I have met too. They were Asian in appearance only. In the Carribean the intermixing of races is very common as all the races there seem to share a common culture. I have also asked some of my Indian guy friends about the idea of sell out girls and none of them seemed to think it was to big a problem. There seemed very few cases of an Indian girl completely ignoring Indian guys or snubbing them in social settings. Infact the times I did go to a club with a few of my Indian buddies, it seemed like if there was any Indian girls there, my friends would be hooking uo with them by the end of the night or at least having a warm conversation. You get your expections no doubt. But one thing that has always impressed me about Indian girls was that they didn't seem to completely freeze out their own men like my own Asian sisters often do. I can't even begin to count the number of time I have come across Asian girls with a "Asian male need not apply" sticker across their forhead. I think part of this is due to the type of exposure and media imagery associated with Asin women and Indian women in America. Whenever you see an Asian women on the movie screen she is with a white guy. not so with Indian girls i think. SUre you have Missisippi Masala, but then you also have Kama Sutra and American Desi and ABCD ( good film BTW). And beyond all of these opinions is that it seems tome that Indian guys date out of thier race as much if not slightly more than their female counterparts. Agian just the facts as I see them.

I think one major affinity between other Asians and Indo-Pakistani is that many of the younger generation females are selling out at rapid pace for us not to avoid and notice. East Asian girls go crazy for white boys, while Indo-Pakistani girls do the same with both white and black guys. This is one of our major common experiences in Western societies. And, this gets back to the fact that it is self-hate among younger generation females and the prejudice against all Asians in general that caused this. All Asians (inc. Indo-Pakistanis and Middle Easterners) face these unique problems. WE have to fight it together or risk melting away into oblivion. I saw a Chinese FOB woman (quite attractive by the way) go into a Chinese supermarket yesterday, while her loser white husband was waiting for her in his nasty, old beatup Buick. Guess what she came out of the market with? A large pack of dozen or six-pack beer. This is unheard of in most Chinese families. How can an attractive and educated girl lose out her life in that fashion? It is so shameful. I know many East Asian, Indo-Pakistani, and Middle Eastern girls who lose themselves out by going with loser white and black guys experimenting with sex, alcohol and drugs.

i agree Indians and Chinese go way back but ever since India was colonized by UK. At the same time, China was revoluting against the Empire and converting to Marxism. The close ties ended there. How sad.

Pakistanis and Indian women are intelligent and some are very attractive. They have nice bodies and are well endowed.

I'm a south indian guy, born and bought-up in north india. I don't know why everybody is bent upon trying to prove their race superior over the other. The fact is that people who want to live together happily always find similar interests and people who have grudges against the world always find some reason to disagree with others.
I've mixed up with some of the friendliest people all from different races...north-east guys, africans, britons...the point i'm trying to make is....If there is peace and happiness in your mind, you always get along with peolpe and find them beautiful too...regardless of the race (which is just another criteria to divide fellow human beings). I love you all and would request you all to do the same...love each other..

NdN Girl,

You sound like a sell out Asian girl now. I don't see that many good looking Indian guys. F U!!!! Quite frankly I don't see that many good looking Indian girls in real life. Thats why I like white girls. Plenty of good looking white girls around..
