Debate, how come Asian girls date outside of their race more?

[roxx]

Recently this issue has popped in my head so I thought i'd address it here.
So there's a common anxiety amongst the Asian community, and that is that Asian girls date outside of their race a lot and Asian men do not. What do you think are some of the reasons for this?

I think there are a few reasons for this

1) Men have to do the approaching and the first move
- The Asian girls have it easy! They don't need to do anything but be cute and they get approached by white men. Now Asian guys on the other hand have to go out there and make a move on a white girl. This is a lot harder than getting approached. If Asian guys were simply approached by tons of white women, then the scales would definitely be more balanced.

2) Asian men prefer Asian girls
Maybe its their heritage but a lot of Asian guys actually just prefer Asian girls to white girls. Therefore instead of approaching white girls they will primarily go for Asian girls. Nothing wrong with that at all.

And here's a video I thought was interesting

Isn`t this as stereotyping the dating? Everybody have their preferences. Somehow it seems this concept as Asian women prefer whites is widely spread. Is it because in USA it is dominated by white (or have the latinos now the upper hand?) and so it is probably more common.
About the video with interesting arguments. I hope I don`t offend someone but isn`t the height difference mainly younger people argument? Socializing bit true.
Maybe also something has to do with the interest towards the different as white for Asian and Asian for white. (Probably that would be taking it to far and simple).
Your 2) explains really well Asian men preferences.
Before commenting about the approaching. Can someone explain if Asian girls wait to be approached or they approach also themselves?
Also what is the difference about approaching and making a move ?

I think sometimes Asian women will approach a guy, but rarely. Asian women are shy as well.

Also the difference between approaching and making a move is simple. Making a move is like changing the relationship such as making friend into girlfriend. Approaching is just talking to someone at first.

Hmm yes a lot of good points you made. I also think that for me I like Asian girls more for some reason. I feel I can connect to them better.

Anyone that intentionally dates outsides(besides the obvious feelings for that particular person of a course) their own race is most likely doing so to break any Stereotypes sought by either their own family or those around them especially the "Stay within your own race one"

I don't think Asian girls actually prefer white guys, there are a fair few I know who would never ever date a white guy.

I think it's more the case that if you see an Asian girl and a white guy together you are more likely to notice it rather than an Asian guy and an Asian girl together, who you may not look twice at.

Like the above posters said: 'it's all about preference'.

Some people like blond hair, some like black hair; some like slim, others like the fuller body. Still others go for a whole different race.

I think anyone can find a match in any race, it just depends on their preference.

This is my two cents i think if a guy is after you you like the chase and when he is showing a side u never see not even in other races you feel excited and want to know this person more that is what i feel but in reality it might be something totally different.

i think they want to be and enjoy being wanted and not lonely and asian men should feel that way somehow too.
