Are Asian Women ONLY Attracted to White Men?

Interracial marriages today have become increasingly common, especially in Asia. However, the reasons behind this are contested. There’s the issue of intention, or why foreign guys are interested in Asian women. There’s also the matter of why these women chose to be with these men in the first place.

Some argue that it’s because of money – that these possibly rich single men can be potential providers. Some claim it’s also for social status, because apparently, being with someone of a different race boosts one’s self-esteem.

Asia has become a hotspot for these interracial relationships. And while these women are prized for their beauty and grace, white men can also be called trophy men merely because they are white.

This is due to the misconception that dating them is something to brag about. Unfortunately, most of these (opportunistic) women date these single men purely for this “bragging rights.”

So, do you think your girl really likes you, or are you just a trophy she flaunts in front of her friends? Why did she display interest in you when she is surrounded by guys of her own race with whom she can relate more?

What do they prefer in men?

Before jumping to the conclusion that these Asian singles solely favor white men for the reasons given above, let’s look at what they seek for in males in general. And it doesn’t take a great profiler to figure out what these are.

Asian women are, after all, women. When it comes to relationships, they have the same aspirations and desires as any other woman. The majority of them search for the standard ideal man: a wonderful person who is romantic, can take care of them, and makes them feel secure and special — the usual prince charming.

But, on the other hand, why does an interracial couple commonly consist of an Asian woman and a white man? Why do so many of them wind up with white guys?

Why not Asians, who lack none of the aforementioned characteristics? What is it about white guys that attracts these stunning women?

It’s all down to personal choice and appeal. Obviously, we date those that we are attracted to. However, society and its ideals also have an unconscious influence on who we are drawn to. We date the people society tells us to date, and we favor the people society encourages us to prefer.

Sure, it’s all about personal choice, but media representation plays a role as well.

Stereotypes are real

What do Captain America, Clark Kent, and Stephen Strange have in common? They’re superheroes, yes, but they’re also unmistakably white.

White men have been portrayed in the media as these wonderful, romantic, heroic guys who appear to have their lives together, or at the absolute least, can manage to put them together. What lady wouldn’t want that for a partner?

Asian males are frequently depicted as geeky or career-oriented guys who prefer to spend their nights reading, studying, or working rather than meeting ladies and partying. Some Asian men and women have even admitted to believing this stereotype.

These men have said that one of the reasons why more foreign men end up “taking” Asian women is that most of them men just have different priorities.

And when questioned why they prefer seeing foreign men over guys of their own race, these women said they believe these guys are more conservative when it comes to expressing themselves, especially when it comes to dating.

Is there something white men have that some Asian men don’t?

Other than these misconceptions, there are other factors that may have led to their preference for white men over their local Asian singles.

Uniqueness. There is undoubtedly an initial appeal to someone who is different from what we are used to. You may call it interest or curiosity, but there’s no denying that there’s an initial pull. It doesn’t help that the majority of these foreign men are nicer than Asian men after they’ve come to know them.

Assertiveness. White men are thought to be more outspoken and open when it comes to expressing their emotions. When compared to most Asian guys, who are perceived to be too cautious or reluctant when meeting new ladies or approaching those they like, this is a significant difference.

One of the qualities Asian women value is confidence, which makes foreign guys more desirable to them.

Experience. Some of them have stated that one of the reasons they find white guys appealing and interested in being with one is that they want to try new things. They feel that foreign guys will provide them with a different type of affection than the males they are used to.

Have any of these women ever been in a relationship with a non-white man, such as an Asian? This is more often the case. These girls may have previously been in relationships, and some of them may have come from past relationships that did not work out.

This might be one of the reasons why they are so eager to try new things and date in a different setting than before.

It's not just that they're only attracted to them, they just prefer them more

Love naturally happens between people.

It doesn’t matter what color, age, or gender we are, when we meet the perfect person who makes us feel special, then we just can’t help but fall in love with them. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to telling preferences, and it’s extremely uncool to generalize one race’s ideals.

Although AWFM (Asian women-foreign men) couples are becoming increasingly common, this does not rule out the possibility of Asian to Asian relationships. So it’s not so much that they prefer white men over other guys, but rather that they choose this one foreign man over all others.
