Where can you view pictures on goldsea?

I'm surprised so many people didn't realise Kristin Kreuk was part Asian, but then again I knew before I saw her, so I was probably looking for Asian features!

Everyone heard of Rachel from S Club 7 who looks part Asian?

Well, I just read she's also Jewish.

Hey Jay--didn't you read Hank Lewis' last post to you? There's a new Hapa Cutie here in H-Town! I saw her picture when I bumped into Hank at HCC last night--she is one cute little baby!!!

Hey Hank--if you read this, why not send a photo for GoldSea to post online?

Blue Ocean,
Like KiKi I too think that Kristin Kreuk looks more White than Asian.
But many people have said the same about me. Kreuk probably looks a little more Caucasian than me. Reasons being:
1) hazel eyes
2) more Caucasianish shaped nose
3) slightly more defined facial features

However, my skin is fairer/paler than hers. Haven't ya all noticed that she's fairly tanned?

I can easily identify Asian features in her:
1) she's petite
2) can see some Asian in the shape of her eyes
3) she can tan (she's yellower than me... hehe)
4) smooth Asianish skin
5) somewhat Asianish hair
6) less facial/body hair (ever noticed how some White women are so hairy you can see little hairs on the sides of their neck and cheaks (those who don't take as much care of themselves)? Kinda like fur!)
7) her features are just the right balance, not too sharp/rough
8) she doesn't look like she'll age like a White girl (esp. hollow cheeked blondes and red heads)
9) do you see White people with nice full lips, like hers? I don't think so!
Unless they're half Mexican!!!
10) there must be more

Jay... if you can't tell... you need to get your eyes checked Monday, March 04, 2002 at 11:40:44 (PST)

eurasians offer the best of both worlds-east and west. they represent the next line in human evolution. personally i think they are more attractive then the pure whites or asians, i would love to have an eurasian as a wife.,

Blue Ocean,
A lot of people have said they couldn't tell Kristin Kreuk was part Asian, but I definitely could. I think many people don't think she is Asian because she doesn't have dark coloured eyes and has pale skin. I don't think I could ever call her white- at least not from the way she looks. In Smallville I heard she is supposed to be part Native-Indian.
