Though dating in this country has been pretty difficult (in reference to realist post about asian guys having to work harder with white girls) and I've found myself working twice as hard with a new set of dating rules and the language barrier (my Japanese is still not amazing). Not to mention when I got dumped via text message because I was “too strong minded”.

Thank goodness for my fella (Japanese Canadian) whom with, I know where I stand.

That's not saying I'm lazy in dating, but it's much less to think about in this relationship without it being work (but worth it) in itself already.

Shit, do we need to make a list of why Asian guys are awesome to know that we're awesome. It is like reading an insecure classified ad in the dating section. Maybe that is the stigma of Asian American man. Maybe it isn't our fault, but it is all those images in the media. But, yo, in the enI've been making a note of Asian dude/White girl couples around ifvy and it's definitely something to note. Just saw one last night and in the biking community, I tend to see it a lot... not sure why..d, I'm awesome because of who I the person I date.

I've heard it all: racist media, white-patriarchal society, China-doll fetish, etc. But as a reformed, former-hater on white guy/asian girl couples, I can honestly say those negative sentiments are projections (in part, if not completely) of your own insecurities about your race. That's a belief I'm sticking to - you can read more about it here: http://howtobeaflyasian.com/2009/04/15/why-asian-guys-hate-on-asian-girl-white-guy-couples/ With that said - I also can't help but root for Asian guys dating white girls. In upstate NY, it was a rarity. I agree that everyone has their own preference, and you should go after whoever you’re attracted to – be it white, black, Asian, Latino, etc.

It's so much easier for me to date white girls. I feel like there is almost no white girl out of my league, no matter how hot she is. White girls will respond to confidence, a good personality, good humor, and to a lesser extent good looks. I can walk up to the most beautiful white girl and she will at least give me a chance. On the other hand, you have some Asian girls who will never date an Asian guy even if he has everything going for him. With them, I know I have no chance. Now this is not all Asian girls, but a pretty good portion of them. That's all fine. None of this makes me mad. I actually prefer white girls so life is pretty good for me. For those Asian girls who only want a white guy, I hope they find the white man of their dreams and live happily ever after. To each his or her own. We all have preferences and you have to respect them. But reality is what it is. The only people who harbor the anti-Asian man bias is Asian women. Realist and Mike, I totally disagree with you guys.
