I am a biracial (black/white) Male & I have dated only 1 asian woman. I am ruined now because I find myself extremely attracted to Asian females. So much that I hardly consider other ethnicities any more. It is difficult because many asian women only stay with their own. So I am often discouraged to ask an Asian woman for a date. If their are any groups or organizations that support inter-racial relationships I would love to be notified.
Good luck to all who are living with the same condition (asian fixation) as I am.

----------However I feel that many Asian ladies tend to believe the stereotypes about African-Americans this makes for some difficult situations whenever I've found myself wanting to as an Asian woman for a date.

Personally...

I have always been attracted to Chinese women because not only are they beautiful people, I love their culture.
everything from chinese food to martial arts contributed to my growth and development. It came as a suprise to my family that I started studying Chinese language a long time ago.

Now, I used to have feelings about Asian women similar to the brother above....UNTIL I ACTUALLY WENT TO CHINA! When I was there, It was like a flip side to my entire beliefs in the people. I am Black and I was welcomed to the extent that I felt like I was a brotha.

I studied at SHANG HAI University and this year Im returning to Fudan. I met alot of hot looking, brilliant female students and I got REALLY REALLY "close" to one of them.
I appreciate them much more thanks to my experience.

If you are an American Black, and interested in Chinese women...I can only say this:
STUDY their CULTURE - so as not to offend them unintentionally.

ALL THAT WOMEN PLAYING HAS TO GO - after Dating Chinese women, one thing I AM CERTAIN of is that dedication and Honesty as well as FAITHFULLNESS is 80% of the relationship. To me, I think they get jealous IN A HOT FLASH if they even think your peepin another chick. I feel that they are more interested in life mates than casual courting. Thats not a generality, thats just my feeling.

And first and foremost - If you got money like I do...TRAVEL TO CHINA !
If your a good looking guy and an AMERICAN, you should have ALMOST NO TROUBLE finding a good partner.

theres alot Id like to share with the board for contribution. EMAIL me if you wanna hear my 5 cents.

Hello Everyone,

I can't say why I'm attracted to Asian ladies anymore than I can tell you why my favorite color is blue but all I know is that since I can remember I've been attracted to them. Not that I don't find Black/African-American ladies extremely attractive; all women for that matter have qualities that make the world go round but for me there's just a special appeal. I can say that the Asian ladies that I've dated with only one exception have been the most fascinating and interesting women I've met. However I feel that many Asian ladies tend to believe the stereotypes about African-Americans this makes for some difficult situations whenever I've found myself wanting to as an Asian woman for a date. And you Asian folks might be surprised but this isn't a one-way thing. Unfortunately we African-Americans and African People around the world can also fall for stereotypes and I've have a lot of pressure from mostly family members who would actually rather see me with a White woman than an Asian!!But that'd really prefer I "stay with my own kind". Yep.. We have the same problem in this matter too. Howerver I look at those coming after my generation and I'm pleased to see that they seem at least to be more understanding, compassionate of other races and cultures as well as just seeing the world more globally than when I was a teenager. I hope that in the future, family and society in general be taken back to see any interracial combination walking down the street. In this I do think it's LOVE that matters and makes the difference. So if your an Asian man who's attracted to an African-American women, I say don't hestitate. And if you're an Asian woman and you notice the qualities of an African-American man, why not check him out and who knows? You may be glad you did.

Best Wishes To You All.
