Well, essentially, that's the unattractive side of things. What I'm really saying, though, is that cultures are naturally racist. Just look at the recent statement the Japanese released, regarding their Princess. They're absolutely mortified at the prospect of her marrying an outsider. Asian? Well, go to Europe and try insist you're Aussie. D'you think they'll believe you, even with your twang? Don't hold your breath. You'll be Asian, through and through. There are just some things which Europeans naturally do, with are inevitably offensive. Maybe you do have good intentions, but that doesn't mean we take it with good grace.So you're equating all inter-racial relationships with Thai sex tourism? Clever.
you are right, with all the sterotypes and racism going, being passed down from generation to generation, its in our blood, but its wrong and we need to realise that, not only that we need to act on it. your attitude is implying it just happens, live with it.... thats not going to help solve anything muchwafflesnsorbet said:I'm also not saying that I approve of racism. I'm just saying racism is something that is naturally inbred. It's just like the rich people looking down on the poor. Pity doesn't equal compassion, just as sexual attraction doesn't equal respect. And colour matters. Stop ignoring the problem.
I am PHYSICALLY a chinese. No questions about that. I respect my genetic heritage, and right now, am in the middle of learning more about my culture. Its beautiful.wafflesnsorbet said:Well, go to Europe and try insist you're Aussie. D'you think they'll believe you, even with your twang? Don't hold your breath. You'll be Asian, through and through.

well, they look different...maybe its time you get yourself a pair of glasses. My natural hair colour is dark brown. Colour is just a colour. Don't make such a big deal about it.love_muscle said:the reason i dont find asians attractive is they all look the same.
show me an asian who isnt born with black hair.
no variety within the race. yes jaops and thais look diferent in the face but anthropologically its the same shit.

Actually, "anthropologically" they are all totally different, haha. In fact I'd say an anthropological study is probably the method that would reveal the most difference between different groups, even within one country, let alone a whole continent.love_muscle said:the reason i dont find asians attractive is they all look the same.

err id be more influenced by the ppl i see in real life than advertising.cuendillar said:Love_muscle, your user name says alot about what you are looking for in a guy...
Everyone judges and stereotypes. Whether consciously or not. That is a fact. Stereotyping helps make unfamiliar ideas easier to understand. Asian guys often get stereotyped as generic, asexual, unexpressive, conservative, etc. There is always some validity in stereotypes, but they are often exaggerated and/or simply untrue. Plus, there are always exceptions to the rule.
As for Asian guys looking the same, this is more a matter of their overall vibe then just their looks. If you were speaking to me on the phone, you would categorize me as an Aussie, because of my upbringing in Adelaide (the Aussie accent is alot stronger there, and they dont use as much hollywood slang). If your vibe is stronger than and different to your physical appearance, people will judge you by your vibe and not just your physical appearance.
This is what i wrote before about asian guys, have another look
I know so many asian guys that would love to sleep with, or have a longterm relationship with caucasian girls, but dont have the belief that these girls desire them.
Its years of social influences, and negative reinforcement that prevents them from experimentation in this area. But they cant help but be attracted to these girls... why? its not because caucasian girls are genreally objectively hotter than asian girls, thats a matter of PREFERENCE. The reason is hollywood. Everyday we are bombarded with sexual advertising, most of which showcases gorgeous WHITE girls wearing versace dresses or covergirl makeup. We are what we repeatedly do, or in this case we desire what we always see. Why are white girls perhaps seen as generally the most attractive? Its advertising.
I would love to see more of my asian guy friends open up to the possibility of relationships with white girls. Like Russell Peters said, why try to maintain your bloodline's pureness? One day, everyone will have paleish yellowish, brownish skin anyway.
agree there. That is why I am writing this. I am not saying what i am saying to fill up my time. This is not just bullshit ranting. I am saying this because I have MANY white girls who I am or were very close to ,either as friends or as lovers. So I am saying this FIRST AND FOREMOST from my OWN experiences, and I am simplying using the sexual marketing techniques to make a point.Bendent said:err id be more influenced by the ppl i see in real life than advertising.
