<p>“but what are the names of the books i could read? i am really interested in where you got your information.”</p>
<p>Well, I was reading this book in the “current event” section in Barnes and Nobles and it said something about the future demographics of the US (and the West). I will try to find it and tell you later.</p>
<p>FRankly, he’s conceding defeat, leave him be.</p>
<p>i thought he was conceding defeat meestasi b/c his post sounded like such a cop out.</p>
<p>I am still perplexed by Shadix’s finding that only 400,000 asian females have white spouses in the US.</p>
<p>Asian population = 4% of US population. so Asian females is 2%. 2% of roughly 290 million is more than 5 million.</p>
<p>So if 5 million females but only 380,475 of have white husband, that’s only 3 or 4%.</p>
<p>So maybe I OVERESTIMATED the percentage of Asian girls with white guys. But it could rise with future generations. </p>
<p>Just look at Hawaii, Asians and white have lived there together for 100 years already and that’s like 4 generations. And only about 1/3 of the Asian population have married white. pure Asians - 40%. mixed blood child = 20%</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>hotpiece, that post shows the guy’s a ■■■■■</p>
<p>that is an inaccurate conclusion.
that statistic refers to MARRIAGES, not number of relationships.
there is an huge difference between relaitonships, hookups, etc, and concrete marriages.
and i am sure the number of relationships is significantly higher.</p>
<p>y cant u ppl accept that azn gurls dont prefer white boys?</p>
<p>he may be saying it in the wrong way, he still reaches a conclusion that is fundamental truth, so leave it at that</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I know black girls and I have heard of many hispanic girls that only date white guys…why anyone would limit themselves like that is beyond me but I certainly don’t get mad about it</p>
<p>like i said above, JinFX, no one said that his conclusion was wrong (i don’t know if it is right or wrong) we were just attacking the logic he used to reach his answer.</p>
<p>Unclehan,</p>
<p>I agree that Asian guys seem to be content with dating Asian girls, and do not see the necessity to “put themselves out there” in order to date women of other races. However, I also contend that there are plenty of Asian guys who want to date white and black girls but are socially hindered by negative stereotypes. I do not know how big this percentage is, but I know that it’s not zero. </p>
<p>I think it’s much more volatile for a white guy to go out with a black girl than for a black guy to go out with a white girl. The symbol of white oppression is, after all, the white man, not the white woman. In a subversive way, the black man is getting revenge on his oppressors by “stealing his woman”. But for a white man to take a black girl, it may hit too close to slavery for some people. </p>
<p>There’s also a cultural factor that hinders Asian guys from dating or marrying out. From my experiences, families would rather have their daughters marry out than their sons, who are expected to “carry on the family line”. This is total BS IMHO, and one of the flaws of Asian society. For some families, letting their daughter marry white but forcing their son to stay within the culture may be a suitable compromise between moving up the social ladder and remaining true to their roots. Sick, IMHO, but I think too prevalent in today’s world.</p>
<p>Of course, for most Asian families, dating black would be a “disgrace”. That’s why I get ****ed off at my own people sometimes, because for all they complain about discrimination and racism from whites, they seem to buy into the same racist notions handed down to them.</p>
<p>And just for the record, I’ve never a good-looking and sociable Asian guy who complained of a significant disadvantage in the dating game. Chances are that all the complainers would be considered dorks regardless of race.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>that is so true, nbachris.</p>
<p>haha yeah, I bet</p>
<p>Damn CC should provide spelling lessons.</p>
<p>“I’ve never a good-looking and sociable Asian guy who complained of a significant disadvantage”</p>
<p>chances are they are whitewashed. they separate themselves from the asians who actually appreciate their own culture and act white to gain acceptance, and thus entrance into the dating game.</p>
<p>i do not consider myself badlooking or dorky at all, and i am complaining because there IS a significant disadvantage for asian guys at my school.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Maybe you should reconsider.</p>
<p>Nah, I’m just jesting. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m going to assume the role of Socrates here, and I’m going to ask you, Xe<em>Ln</em>Ag_A, some important questions.</p>
<p>1) How would you describe a whitewashed Asian guy?</p>
<p>2) How would you describe an Asian guy who appreciates his own culture?</p>
<p>3) How does one act white?</p>
<p>I think by answering those questions, you can clarify a lot of things for me and yourself.</p>
<p>1) somebody who distances oneself from their asian conterparts because of fear of not being accepted/liked.
2) somebody who does not downgrade his asian race/origin
3) acting white would entail being 1) and doing the opposite of 2)</p>
<p>keep in mind that 3) is not directed against caucasian/whites, but the behavior of whitewashed asians.
i hope that clarifies</p>
<p>Xe<em>Ln</em>Ag_A,</p>
<p>You’re going to have to be more clear. You’ve basically repeated yourself instead of explaining to me what you mean. What does “distancing” really mean? Provide anecdotes, or hypothetical scenarios. I want to know what specific actions these people do, in your mind.</p>
<p>i have both white friends and asian friends. i am the man.</p>
<p>Liking a particular race is not bad by any means. It’s just another extention of preference. No one will complain if you say “I like tall girls,” but then would you be “heightist” for not liking short girls? I think liking racial attributes is not a bad thing. I have a thing for Asian features. Straight, dark hair and dark eyes and a relatively compact frame happen to be things I find attractive… I, in fact, met my girlfriend here on CC in a thread I started about this very topic on the old forums.</p>
<p>Untilted, i have friends of all races, many of them girls, i own u… seriously tho, what is “the university”?</p>
<p>nba:</p>
<ol>
<li>whitewashed asians guys are unaware of other asians, all their close friends, if they have any, are white or whitewash from other races. they drive american, even tho most of them dont actually know how to drive.</li>
</ol>
<p>they dont like or understand hello kitty. they dont drink, and probably have never heard, of boba (or bubble tea). no non whitewashed asian will make friends w/ them, esp not girls. they want a white girl, but always get rejected. whitewashed asians are afraid to be in the same room as black people.</p>
<p>they have as many good grades in european languages like english as white, and as many bad grades in the technical arts as whites.</p>
<p>when they are around asians and whites, they will hide from the asians because the whites might ask them what the asians are talking about, and of course the whitewash has no idea. when only around other asians, the whitewashed asian is embarassed that everyone has to switch to english just to talk to him, and everyone is wondering why is this whitewash there w/o any whites to protect his weak self.</p>
<p>they only drive ford or gm, and its stock, maintained by the dealer, and completely stock. the car is probably white.</p>
<p>in any given high school, a whitewash asian will read an essay, about “model minority” and how racist other people are, to the whole school. any asian in the audience walks out. and after school, the asian guys beat him up.</p>
<ol>
<li>these people can have many different characteristics, as asian itself is pluralist. they are immigrants or ABA that are racers, ricers, YAP, fob, tabs, gansters, gamers, artists, hongkongers, cantonese, beijingers, southern chinese, korean, japanese, rich international students that go back home after grad skool, students that moved here to create themselves in a new world.</li>
</ol>
<p>they identify with a street, a block, a district, a city, a province, a nation, a people, a family, and a pop culture know as “azn” as well as pop culture in all east asian, while specializing in their own homes. its not that they are racist against other races, but other asians are the people they can connect best to, from all east asian, but especially asians closer to home. therefore they have mostly asian friends, and would prefer asian girl/boyfriends, but they would have no problem getting hot girls from any race.</p>
<p>they do not consider whitewashed asians part of asian culture. asians understand that asian culture is uniquely american, and that asian culture is what really makes them american. they also know that their own culture is just as important as asian culture, even tho their own culture is “traditional” and asian culture is pop.</p>
<p>they listen to GOD, JayChou, stefanie, evonne, wangleehom, BoA, Zone, and Jin. they drive cars b/c they are good cars no matter who made them, and they are good drivers, some of them are good driver going 50mph faster than the speed limits. they watch movies in one of the asian languages regularly and discuss these and upcoming movies with their friends.</p>
<p>if they are in southern california and only watch network tv, then they only watch ksci 18. some of them go to ksci sponsored events where other asians, yes some asian guys, perform pop and classical. most of them can dance, and most of them dance hip hop.</p>
