Chinese and many Asians like white skin in a similar way to the way we like to bronze ourselves on the beach. We don't want to be black, just a colour that is perceived as being healthy. Chinese don't want to look as though they've been slaving away in a paddy field all day.


Looking pasty-white isn't exactly very healthy looking. I'd prefer a girl who exercises and is dilligent, than a 'white' asian who is used to screaming at her mom for things.

Yep Wink -but everyone has their tastes. I know asians and caucasians who like darker skin, and black and indian people who prefer lighter. It's all personal preference. Choice and variety are good.

You guys may laugh, but I really think that if tanning beds were outlawed, everywhere in the world, there would be more inter-racial marriages.
Ok you guys are chuckling now, but there's a reason I say this.
In NE Asia, schools prefer to hire whiter-than-white teachers (about 98% of the teaching population.) The look is blue-eyes, blonde or red hair, and NO TAN. I don't think I saw a single tanned white person over there.
And I never saw white couples over there, ever.
I think people like what is different, and I think that when everyone has the same look (men and women both Asian, men and women both with blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin) people aren't attracted.
The types are just too similiar.
I know that if everyone I saw everyday looked exactly like me, I'd be damn bored.
I think maybe that's why their porno industry is so freaky, with rape and schoolgirls, because well, all the people look alike.
Genetic variation or lack thereof....hmmm.....
Choice and variety are good, they are very good.
If I were a guy I wouldn't have the "fever."
It's like, I can get a steak.....or a steak....or a steak! Wow!
Congratulations, I got a steak from a steakhouse!
Now if you got a steak from a sushi parlor, or a pasta place, that would show better hunting skills.
But shooting a buffalo in a field full of a buffalo....you are no spectacular hunter....
(I don't care who people date, I'm just bored right now actually and waiting for the SIMS to load, so I thought I would wax philosophical on men and biology)

Chi-Chi

You've got unresolved men-issues.

Slay your demons, lady, and move on.

Nope. Just bored and giving my opinion.
Why is it that when a man gives his opinion on the forum, it's his right, but when a woman gives her opinion, she's "got issues?"
Double standard?
Anyways....

Chi chi, you gorgeous creature....you are soo different Very Happy

I agree completely. Most guys I know wouldn't date a girl who looks like his mommy/cousin/aunt. I know I wouldn't. She would have to be different (even slightly).

I've been through stages where I've dated Indian girls only, Asian girls only, Persian girls only, Black girls only, and now...it's sorta White girls only, until I get to Asia....

Vive la Diference!

re: mixed blood

I think you are taking things way out of context

Mixed-blood is simply our expression for saying someone is mixed-race.. for instance Eurasian

there's nothing racist or derogatory about that comment, even I say it myself sometimes
