WHAT YOU SAY

to married to asian woman
"...I'm married to her because I am, and I live up to my decisions and responsiblities."

Marriage is not a state of being (I am), and contrary to what you may think, it's not even a state of mind (I think/feel). It is actually a state of action (I do). Just as a wise man once said, "love is not a feeling, it's an action" so is marriage. You assigned marriage to a state of being, much like saying, "I am Asian, I am a girl, I am married". I think of it more as "I do the cooking", "I do the laundry", "I do marriage". The one requires that I simply breathe and enjoy what my parents gave me through their genes, and the other requires that I extend myself for someone else's benefit...I have to extend some effort!

Now, what does all that rambling on have to do with anything? Well, marriage, in my oppinion, requires major effort to make it work. Living up to your decisions and responsibilities mean you are making a conscious choice to "do the marriage" even when you don't feel like it, and even though it doesn't look like it or even feel like it, you, Mr. married to asian woman, do love your wife because looks can be deceiving and feelings fluctuate with the weather...but an action, once done, becomes a reality that doesn't change until another action replaces it.

Real love is doing something loving for some one, even when you don't feel like loving them or doing it. Infatuation-love stops the loving action once the feeling is gone. There's nothing there to sustain the action once the impetus that drives the action is gone.

I know that this is a round-about way of confirming to you something that you probably already know, but Mr. married to asian woman--face it. You love your woman, despite all her flaws.

asian american women are beautiful?

definitely not true in NYC or Boston... the foreign Asian women (Japan, Korea, China) far outlcass the American-born ones based on my observations in these cities...

On the other hand, I have to give credit to some of the American-bred Asian beauties in California and the Midwest... they are truly sexy and beautiful!

well i dont really care how people stereotype asian females. if you are bothered by this then don't waste your time talking to them. i dont know why some girls make a big deal about this, EVERYBODY gets stereotyped in one way or another. it's just human nature to do it , but stupid to believe it when you don't know the person personally.

Annoying Dude,

"many Asian American women have a tendency to be snobby -- and overly concerned with things like materialistic and career success"

Sound like you are just mert AF with similar backgrounds. Asian may be only 4% of the population. But they come from many diverse backgrounds. There are party asian, church asian, yuppie asian, ganster wannabe asians, sk8 asian.

Just sound more like you don't hang around enough diverse asians.

Coming from NYC we always had a few wannabe WM who wanted to hang with us. It's cool. But you have to understand that we also attract and interacted with mostly AF that want AM.

There would be issues if a group of AM attracted AF who wanted WM. Like are we in the wrong pool hall, or is the spoiler on the Honda too small (hahaha).

So if you hanging with the AM crowd and are the only WM in th group, the only AF you are being introduced to are those who are interested in AM.

"Firstly, I'm wondering about the kind of background of these AA girls you claim to know. If they come from predominantly white upper-middle- or upper-class backgrounds, they may simply be going along with the crowd. "

HOW can an AA female come from a "predominantly white" background?

Also, are you implying that when WFs who grow up in an "upper-middle or upper-class background" are snobby, it's because that's natural, and it's just normal for white people, but when Asians act that way, it MUST be because they grew up among whites, because Asians couldn't possibly have gotten like that themselves?

Are there no snobs in Asia? Or is all snobbery just a result of white people and white influence?

For God's sake, you are very angry at whites and like to stereotype us, don't ya?

mlk-
dude, why do you insist on dissecting my post with your psychological bullcrap? honestly, you read way too much into it. do you ever take stuff for what it is? or do you over-analyze every tidbit until the original meaning is nothing and you're left with whatever you warped and twisted it into.

the fact is, you don't know me. i am a well adjusted individual . i have friends, i have a boyfriend, i'm in school. but on the same note, i don't really care that much about what others think about me. i don't think the world revolves around me. nor do i care people like you think i'm snobby. you're the one that is snobby to think that someone actually cares what your opinion is. you're snobby for thinking people should act a certain way..perhaps the way YOU act. exactly.
