No thats reversed drake. Casual fling is much easier, just because you stand out. But serious relationship is hard to attain, cause ur on the outside.

That's the case in Korea. Because of the anti-Black racism there's virtually no black english teachers, so all the blacks that are here (besides the Nigerians) are a couple thousand black GIs, since there so few of them they seem to do pretty well for themselves with casual flings (supply/demand) but I imagine they'd have a hellish time setting up a longterm relationship and the girl would certainly be given all kinds of ****.

I can't really compare the two, having never been to Korea. Have you been to Japan?

Nope, but from talking to expats who have, the rough consensus is that Japanese society is more open to interracial dating but Korean girls are cuter (so its a bit of a toss up). Specifically Koreans tend to be a bit taller, (not something I care about personally, but a lot of people do) look really really girly a bit less than Japanese and almost never have buck teeth (or bad teeth generally) and there's some slight difference in facial structure that I've seen that's hard to put my finger on.

Koreans tend to have very long torsos relative to their arms & legs.

What's wrong with that?

but a lot fewer chinese girls

All of the Taiwanese girls I knew in college were fairly unattractive, but China's a big enough country that there are a lot more distinct "looks" there than there are in their Korea or Japan I would think.

You should try dating Chinese women. There are half a billion of them so sooner or later even you would get lucky.

Hear hear on that poster who said white guys choose only the ugly Asian girls.

Most of my Korean pals say that if there's an ugly Korean girl, her parents always joke about her going to America, so that some poor white sap will find her irresistible and marry her.

And before you argue, I think the popularity of somebody as plain as Lucy Liu is evidence enough.

So what's considered 'attractive" among Koreans ? Is there different standards?

Locals prefer a more "western" look (e.g. round eyes with creases) whereas westerners who appreciate Asians often prefer those with looks that most embody their racial characteristics (e.g. narrow, creaseless slanted eyes, prominent cheekbones, etc).

It sorta works both ways. A lot of those western guys scoring those "ugly " Asian chicks aren't exactly prime dating material back home. Again, same goes for gay community.

I think Asian women who hook up with white guys in the US often compare Asian American men to white men. So even if Asian Americans are less patriachal then they used to be they are still more so than many white men.

Those who like white guys typically appreciate western men treating them with respect and often - equality! They enjoy western men's superior romantic skills (not to mention love-making skills...). Some think western males are irresistably sexy. And of course some are simply interested in his big, hard wallet (or the visa lurking inside it).

And again, this all (except re visa) equally applies to the dynamics of the gay community.

Coincidentally, a friend of mine just wrote a well-received book on this topic, so I've been reading and talking about it a lot lately.

Not quite rumors - I have been conducting intensive research into the dating and mating habits of the mainland Chinese male.
Results: I think I'm going to have to conduct a nation-wide series of crash-course seminars in l'art d'amour.

As for Chinese women, they seem much better off in the romance department, however I have substantially less experience in this area.
