Straight from an Asian girl who's dated white guys! Rochelle blogs about her reasons why Asian girls date white guys. Read on for the full scoop. Hey guys, I'm Rochelle, and I am a blogger for Amped Asia! I'm going to be blogging about a lot of different topics like my experiences, my love life, my passions, my commentary on the Asian-American lifestyle, and more. Feel free to give me an e-mail at rochelle_nguyen@ampedasia.com.

Editor's Note - This article has generated a lot of controversy about racism. So I thought I should address this. This article is sharing one girl's thoughts and feelings and does not reflect the ideas of the creator's of this website. While I personally disagree with many things in this article, I also wanted to keep it published to shed some light on an issue that many people wonder about.

Also be sure to check out the responses to this topic by Steven Lin - Do Asian Women Prefer White Men? and Are Asian Men Less Desirable?



This topic is probably pretty controversial, but I thought I'd write about something that bugs a lot of my male friends. Don't pretend that it's not an issue. There are tons of people out there questions why there are so many Asian girls who prefer white guys. No, I'm not being racist. I'm not generalizing. I'm just telling what MY PERSONAL OPINIONS are. That's why they call this an editorial. I absolutely love hate mail so feel free to send it my way.

Anyways let's start with reason #5 of why I think Asian girls like white guys.

5) Social Prowess

White men are more socially in-tuned, and thus they have more social prowess than Asian guys. What I mean by social prowess is that they know what to do in social situations and they know how to network and meet new people well. I think the major reason for this is that I do live in the United States, in an area with a dominant white majority. White guys own the popularity contest, and sometimes this is something that is attractive to girls. As much as I hate to admit it, my gender sometimes has the tendency to get a little shallow. So if a white guy makes you look better than an Asian guy, then maybe you might want to choose the white guy.

4) Balls

I've met some Asian guys with balls. But for every Asian guy with balls, there are three or four white guys with just as much or even more balls. So I'm definitely not saying that Asian guys never have confidence. This isn't true, but I have to admit that I've found that there are more white guys out there that are more confident.

3) Unique

Sometimes a girl just wants something different. It's quite possible that the girl might be at a stage where she wants something unique and maybe network with some people that are different. I've dated a lot of Asian guys before my first white guy and this was definitely true for me. It felt refreshing to hang out with a few girls and guys of different races.

2) They pull the trigger

White guys are just more assertive. Sometimes girls just don't want to wait. I've seen that Asian guys tend to drag out things a lot longer. They want to really extend the courting process. Sometimes girls just want a boyfriend and they want it NOW! White guys are really good at realizing this and acting on it.

1) Western concept of beauty

Living in the United States has probably clouded my judgment a little bit. When you see models in the press or media they are always toned, large, tall – all attributes that Asian guys tend not to have. I think it might have to do with just the way us Asian American girls were brought up. Our concept of beauty makes us think that Westerners just have that beauty that guys of our race don't have.

'Nuff said. Hope you guys enjoyed my first post. I'm going to be blogging for Amped Asia in my spare time and have my own column. I am expecting some mail from you guys on this article. Give me ideas for future posts!

Much Love,
