WHAT YOU SAY
[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]
I think over the next few generations asian americans are going to get fatter and fatter, as they intermarry, and eat more Western/American foods like Big Macs, fries, pizza, meat and potatoes. So then noone can say that "All AAs are naturally thin". Not any more!

Well I'm glad that some men actually appreciate us "close to the bone" girls, and all the hard work some of us do. The people who talk nasty about us are haters who are jealous and are insecure about their own appearance. I've noticed that. And I'm not just plain "skinny;" I lift weights and am toned. So much work! But it is worth it, believe me. And another thing, what's with girls always wanting big boobies? I have a small chest, and when I kick-box or run I don't have to worry about pain and jiggling. I don't like to feel anything on my body jiggle. It feels fat. Plus, being flat makes you look thinner. That's just my opinion.

heck yeah weight is important....Since Asians tend to be shorter keeping the body well proportioned is always a challenge--even more so as we get older. I remember back in high school the majority of my Asian classmates were thin. Today, almost everyone that I've met is FAT!(the girls have done a better job at fighting off the weight than the guys but still)...Also noticed that the guys built lots of weight on their upper bodies, yet leg length/ overall height hasn't changed much---the result is an disproportion [upper body is long as legs) "very nasty looking". short asian guys 5'7 and below who lift heavy weights at the gym..wtf? "you're already short and making things worse by adding bulk(thinking they look good when its just FAT);my advice Hit the treadmills!!

me:
check the dosage on your medication !
You didn't hear me say any such thing.
And by the way, this really seems to strike a nerve with you. Is there anything you would like to SHARE.
I only expressed my personal attraction to "thinner" women as opposed to more curvaceous. Now, that's just my personal taste. I know plenty of fellas who like bigger women and even some who like a great big ol booty.
Can't we all just get along ?
There's enough love for everybody somewhere !
"I" likes em close to the bone

"likes em close to the bone"
Yeah that's a really positive message to send to women- you're no better than the media. Basically you're saying- Women, be as thin as you possibly can by whatever means necessary. It doesn't matter how you feel as long as you're stick thin so boys like you.

Hi there Freckled Face CF :
Your description of yourself in your post perked my interest. I'm a 100% Chinese guy from Taiwan myself but I spent the better part of my life overseas (in the Middle East, Singapore, Boston, and now Hawaii)
You wouldn't happen to have an email address I could reach you at, do you? My email is dragonscorpio@yahoo.com. I'm 6'2 in height (my Dad's from northern China: I come from a tall family: my sister is 5'11
Please fell free to email me: I happen to think that girls of your description are astronomically more attractive than Kate Moss type girls.
Ciao for now
-Benji
