Asians who refuse to date non-Asians

[SunWuKong]

ok we've all talked plenty about Asians who refuse to date Asians. but what about Asians who refuse to date non-Asians? do you think there's anything wrong with that? how do they compare to Asians who refuse to date Asians?

[tapestrybabe]

the one and only guy i ever dated.. was a white male... and while he was a nice man.. him being white... just emphasised my asian ness about myself... and from that experience... i've learned that here is an issue where being asian comes first for me. me, i cant explain it.. but its that connection i feel towards my own race... its culture... the issues that we deal with... that makes me want to end up with another asian... and no one else... i dunno... its not a matter of keeping it real.. but its just something that i feel really deep inside of me...

I wouldn't be offended if someone wouldn't want to date me because I wasn't Asian enough. It's just preferences after all. Just the same if someone didn't want to date me because I wasn't white enough.

hmm i dont really think anything of it. whoever they want to date, its their business. if they have a personal preference for a certain race then its all good to me.

am simply not attracted to non-asians. on an objective level i suppose i can see that they are attractive (or not) but have never been personally attracted. i think culturally it'd just be too much of a stretch for me.

I just don't see anything wrong with someone dating someone else because thats what they choose to date. And I just don't feel how it would be right judging them because of it, it is their relationship and theirs alone.

dude -- are you not keeping it real? how can dating outside of your race/ethnicity be good for you when he/she would not likely understand your race or the problems you deal with, or is it not much of a problem for you?

Who me?

[deez nuts]

Where did I say, I would or would not date someone of my own race? I was speaking to the interracial couples I see.

[deez nuts]

So from all that you deducted I won't date Asian women? I'll date any woman I am attracted too, and thats keeping it real on my part. And most of the women I dated were Asian, to be exact Chinese. Yo can't get more real than that.

>> i dont have anything against people who refuse to date asians as long as their reasons are justifiable, not just because they think their race is superior to anothers or because of assumptions based on stereotypes. dating preferences are fine but ignorance isnt...feel me? when i was "talking" with a white guy i was always questioned..."why are you dating a white guy? asians gotta stick with asians" those kinds of comments pissed me off the most...it made me want to date white guys just to spite other people. but, me and the guy never really hooked up...we were 2 very different people and i couldnt overlook those differences i guess...ever since then ive stuck to dating asians...more specifically chinese. its nice speaking youre native tongue to a significant other...but im open to anything...if some white guy...black guy...mexican guy sweeps me off my feet than so be it...its all good in the hood homies.

Same as with Asians who refuse to date Asians, it's all a matter of preference. And I totally agree with Karizma.... as long as it's not done because they think they are superior to anybody else... does it really matter who you choose to date?
Personally, I like to keep ALL my options open, but I know a lot of people don't... And that really doesn't bother me unless they're making ignorant statements. I mean, just because people have their differences, it doesn't always have to meet that you won't be compatible.

Same as with Asians who refuse to date Asians, it's all a matter of preference.

Someone's talking about themself here.
In any case, I think the phrase "Asians who refuse to date non-Asians" is a bit strong. Perhaps "Asians who prefer not to date anyone not Asian" might be gentler. If you think about the reasons to not date others, Asians are the most hygienic when it comes to sex since Asians in generally bathe before the act. What other race do you hear off that do this religiously? Why do you think white guys have all of a sudden turned to Asian women for companionship, marriage and worship? Ironically, the women that they choose often adapt to the less hygienicly inclined attitudes of the western women after such unions.
