WHAT YOU SAY
[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]
I prefer mexican women over white women. I am married to a mexican woman. It is much easier to instill Asian Cultural values in our children. Mexican culture are more similar to Asian Cultures. White American cultures do not even respect their elderly, they throw them away in nursing homes. They also believe in killing babies in abortion. My wife's family is so warm and accepting to me. They treat me very good. Mexican are so much more attractive than White women. Mexican women are feminine and graceful like Asian women. They have a beauty that White women cannot compete with. I do not prefer mestizas. My wife has very Pueblo features.

Asian Luvin Chica,
As a Chinese Am male,I can appreciate the fact that you guys are discovering us. Back a few yrs ago at a holiday office party a Chica coworker was trying to (secretly) hook me up with a beautiful Latina friend of hers (same co.different dept). Since I was attached at the time I really couldn't act on it. Plus the fact her friend was so young and beautiful I kind of suspected it was some sort of setup or trap as my coworker and I were embroiled in office politics. I just couldn't believe such good fortune. I must have been crazy because I so regret it now cause one day as I was leaving (I was being laid off) the office I saw my coworkers husband drive up to pick her up. He was Chinese! So my thinking goes; if we didn't get along at work,why would she want to hook me up with such a stunningly beautiful woman? Then when it was too late, I discover her husband is also Chinese. What do you guys make of this? When it rains it pours?
(complete) IDIOT?

Just my thoughts, Mark,
It depends on where you raise your kids around what groups of people.
I had a niece (father is white, mom is Chinese) where she grew up in a predominantly Asian American neighborhood. Thus, she grew up identifying Asian.
I had another nephew (father is Chinese, mom is white) who grew up in a white suburb. The boy looks only feintly Asian, so he never had trouble passing himself off as white. Only if he never mentions his last name.
Then, I had another nephew (father is Chinese, mother is Chicano) who grew up in a multiracial neighborhood. He has no trouble fitting into either the Asian or Mexican peer groups. He has the physical looks of both races also.
But, generally, I also agree that in minority/minority intermarriages, there is less feeling of shame or stress. You are more on an equal footing with each other.

You idiot. I consulted the 2002 NYT Almanac for the precise figures.
Costa Rica: population: 3,773,057 (July 2001 est.); 94% white; 3% black; 1% Indian; 1% Chinese

Commentary;
"Costa Rica is also overwhelmingly white"
I don't think so. I've been there and there's a lot of mestizos. Though almost everybody is gonna claim that they're staright european descendants you can tell there's mixing.

I think that everyone needs to just realize how prejudice and even racists the whole world can be. Even within the classes in any hispanic society extending to their media. Classism based on physical appearence is totally apparent. There are a lot of so called "indian" looking people in all of the Americas.........and they are more than likely very poor. So whether someone has as very Indian, white, morena or black features doesn't matter. Becuase hispanics are the ONLY singled out race........that ironically does not contain a single race. The only way you can actually be hispanic (besides being from spain) is to have mixed blood of any many races. Of course primarily Spanish and Indiginous. Anyways.........the point is, dont hate. We are all beautiful, well i know i am fine as hell. hehehehe
Just keep the love going. I will do my part because i love my Asian men. I dont know what life would be like without them.......a lot less flavor.
I wish someone would take that anger out on me :-o

Mark,
It would probably be harder to pass down your Asian culture to your kids if the mother is non-Asian (esp. white) because the children will be around them most of the time, assuming that the mother is primary care-giver. Of course, both parents can take 50/50 responsibility for raising the kids, but I think that is rare, although you can get pretty close. So unless your non-Asian wife is versed in the Asian arts/culture/language, her influence will be somewhat stronger.
Other factors include the gender of the child, how 'Asian' they look, and their personality.
Hapa females (as minority females) are more likely to be accepted socially by whites (in social/professional settings), so this could lead them to form a more "white" identity, esp. in the formative years. Of course, individuals sometimes 'rediscover' their identities, so each individual will have different paths of development.
Hapas that look more Asian will less likely be easilt accepted by white, so they may align themselves (identity wise) with Asians. This will also shape their development.
Personality is an important factor too. Non-Asian American culture values personality, which pretty much translates to out-goingness and energy. Extrovert hapas will have an easier time socializing with non-Asians, and this can also shape their identity. Introverts could indeed turn to their more reserved Asian peers for companionship, but again, it depends on the individual. I've seen it go both ways.
Jsut my thougths.

Give me a BreaK! Some of you people are clueless. Costa Rica is predominately "white?" hahaha. WRONG!
Go check the Encyclopeadia.
Argentina and Uruguay's population are mostly of European descent, most of the native Americans either died off, killed off or assimlated into the white population. Just like in United States. There were never many Native Americans in Argentina like in Mexico. So there isn't a large mestizo (European/Indian mix) population, Indians and mestizos only make up like 10% the total population. There are hardly any black population, ones you see are most likely from Brazil. Half of Brazil's population is black or mulatto (white/black mix) rest white.
There is nothing wrong with identifying oneself as "white Hispanics" if you have no Indian or black blood. Its even stated in the US census.
Remember term "hispanic or latin" mean culture not race. latins come in all shades.
Brent,
What? Argentinians speak "Portugese?" hahahaha..you're just stupid.

I think Xuxa is for real. Whoever called her a fraud is a fraud. I have been studying hispanic cultures and found out that Brazil and Argentina people speak portuguese. I have researched. Its the same as Brittish people living in the America.

just an opinion and others,
Maybe it is because both of the partners are minority groups, so there is that balance there?
but, why would it be harder to pass down the Chinese or Asian values if the wife/mother happened to be white?
