Okay, Marduk, ya got me. I mispoke. I made a mistake & I apologize to you if you were offended by my ignorant and "myopic" views. I don't even know any Asian women. I almost asked a Korean American woman out, but she said only dates "Korean Professionals" out of respect for her parents. I've also visited numerous internet personals websites and a majority of the Asian female profiles I've come across specifiy either an Asian male or a White male. Very rarely do I find the box checked "any". Out in public, I've seen a variety of combinations, but mostly Asian couples or Asian/White couples. That's my experience and I'm stickin' to it. I'm not disillusioned, wandering the Manilan-massage-parlour-red-light-district. If I'm fortunate enough to meet a woman that I connect with - and she happens to be Asian...I'll do my best not to put my foot in my mouth! Now, do I really have to eat "crow"? Howzabout I substitute it with some baked chicken - i'm tryin' to stay off the fried stuff?

"I was only speaking about what I've come across with the Asian women, my first hand experience."

First of all you claim to have no first hand knowledge about Asian women, then you make a rather myopic generalization based on second hand observations. Your clarification only compounds your original misjudgement. Wouldn't it just be simpler to admit you were wrong to make any such judgement about the state of Asian couples? It looks more like you are trying to avoid eating crow with revision. I agree your statement does not encompass the nature of Asian women and couples world wide. That is rather obvious. I would venture to say that it does not even encompass the Asian women you have met and if it does, I suggest you stop looking for Asian women in the red light district of Manila or massage parlors. As far as spelling my spelling is concerned, I am more eager to read content and try not to concern myself with peoples usage of spell check programs.

I don't say Asian women are the best. It's just that is where my area of experience has been. Mainly Japanese women at that. I've read elsewhere on the site that many BM feel that AW tend to drift toward WM in general. I feel this is true but not for the reasons some give. Someone mentioned that we move in different social circles and that indeed is the case. Many BM, are not willing to move out of their comfort zone of the black social circle and try out another. I personally have no problems with that. Currently I am not in the circles that AW travel in, thus I don't see them as much.

To AF,

Thanks...I appreciate that. Bravo to you as well. I live in the southeast, and let me tell you it's very hard to meet AA female like you and I. Keep up the positivity.
