    Attraction is a cultural construction. The current standard of beauty and attraction is based upon the presence of eurocentric features. The media, whether consciously or not, cast certain looks as attractive, matching this ideal becomes more difficult for certain ethnic groups..for ex/ asians. BTW, who creates these standards, you may say "we do", the people, therefore its a realiable indicator of attraction. But let me clarify one thing. White people own the media, therefore they control what is considered beautiful. If the world was different, we'd see a completely different story.

    Why are Asian females viewed more attractive, well, first of all, asian females are viewed and portrayed much more differently than white females. Asian females are viewed as "exotic" beauties. In a white dominated world, they are viewed more for their surface qualities, as a possession to dominate than actual beautiful, individualized woman. So the standards of attraction placed on an asian woman is strikingly different than for a white woman.

    Why are asian men not viewed as attractive? Well, because they don't fit the eurocentric mold first of all. Sharp features, strong jaw line, these are eurocentric features that asian males often do not possess. These are traits attributed to masculinity, which our media and culture view as the ideal. So Asian males are not "unattractive" on any objective standard. They just happen to not fit the standard "white" society has constructed. Is this fair? I don't believe so. As long as the media does not expand and diversify its conception of what is attractive, then asian males don't really have much a chance to be viewed as such.

    Because white girls haven't learned to appreciate the sexiness and uniqueness of asians men. If more asian men would have the guts to ask a white girl out...they just may get recognized for their uniqueness and sexiness.

    From my experience, it's because the majority of white females aren't attracted much to Asian males, and can't view them as someone to have a relationship with, unless they have some sort of Asian fetish...like Japanophiles(and there's nothing wrong with that =D). And from what was said before^ Asian guys in the US are usually shy(in mostly white/black schools)and lack confidence when they see their chances are slim...and trust me, I've been down that road many times, and still am on that road.

    PS: also, ppl said that it has to do with the media portrayal of what's sexy and what's not sometimes. Well, Asian females end up with that kind of positive exposure, but we will yet come to see the day that Asian males get the same treatment.

    Maybe because more white males can afford an Asian mail order bride than the opposite?

    I guess when you ask this question, you are trying to confirm some stereotype you have in your head already.

    The truth is, stereotypes are a quick fix in today's society. They aren't real. We are so much more complcated than the stereotypes that are given to us.

    Stereotypes are the main cause of interracial relationship problems. They can really cause me and my partner grief sometimes too. However, when you boil it down, people just want a quick fix, a quick label, because everythings so complicated these days, they need to sort everything out in their heads.

    Seem like an instigated question pitting Asian agaisnt
    each other. Well, if the female chose to, then it's her choice.
    It also depends on the environment she grew up with.
    As an Asian male I don't have problems with White female
    or with Asian or Latin female. To my Asian brothers stay
    pos and keep workin on your techniques and approaches
    (I suggests reading some pickup books from Amazon, watch
    YouTube, start out with small tasks to build up your confidence).
    No matter what always keep your chin up!!!

    In retort to Anon, attraction is not cultural. In no way has it ever been. It's a biological imperative. It is biologically driven. It is the most racist sexist biased no-PC and most personal preference that it is our Right to exercise. "Cultural construct" doesn't survive the winter by preparing in the summer. It's instinct and common sense. Absolute racism and ability to survive at it's finest. Darwin doesn't care about your culture. And the girl giving you access to her eggs doesn't either. It's about advantaged survival. That was kinda gross, sorry about that. Anywho, moving on..

    Ah, so it always comes back to why asian guys can't get a girl doesn't it. Man.. you know this wouldn't be a question if we stuck an asian guy in a wrestling arena with a white or black girl. They would beat him into next week. It's real simple. You are the weak. They are the strong. Rice and noodles don't have amino acids. Steak does. Start there. OK, so let's look at this from a different angle.

    Well, in my family, my sisters would constantly ask me why I dated asian women. I'm a white male. They didn't understand it. They said they were skinny, flat, and looked like little boys. And it only got worse when they described asian men... I told them that I liked them because they acted like women(no women's lib/man-hating/etc), and our kids would be better looking for it. They kind of agreed on that point, but they didn't get the attraction. Although I didn't care. They didn't need to get it. I liked them. It ain't ever gonna change as far as I know. So end of story.

    So, about that disparity. I date asian women nearly exclusively. That's just my taste, and my taste sadly has nothing to do with choice. I've tried to be attracted to people that look like me but it just doesn't happen. The fact is, I'm thinking about my kids. An asian woman acts like a woman, and our offspring will look better than both of us combined. A white woman wants to be a man, and our offspring will look exactly like us- not better, not worse. So when I see black guys with asian/white women, I try to understand why. And I'm still trying to understand because their kids are uglier than an asian or a white kid. The blacks win, but whoever they marry loses. I just don't get that, but whatever- it's not my problem. They can make the lame blind all day for all I care. I'm sure this comment upsets alot of you, but let's compare. Kristen Kreuk/Kelly Hu/Kate Beckinsale/Dean Cain to the prettiest black singer in the Universe from now until the end of time/Tiger Woods. No man, it's just not the same.

    Anyhow, back to the white woman asian male thing. Here's the truth asian fella's. When a white woman can stomp your face in the ground, that's a problem. You know what I'm talking about. They are twice your size on average and look at you like some kind of curiosity. Some white girl do date asian guys, and as a white guy, when I see that I literally say "You go dude!". It's like finding a freaking platypus. I'm happy for both of them. They're kids will come out great and it's one less asian dude wanting to kill himself. So there it is. If I held anything back, let me know. I can be a bit shy.. hehe.. HAhahahaha.. oh man, asian guys are a trip. I play video games and eat rice and fish sauce, why can't I meet a white girl? HAhahahahah... Oh kill me.

    Its true asain males are shy, some more thoughtful than someone confident from their numbers and life experiences.

    In some asain society they don't have to be the ones who ask a girl out instead the girls asks them out.
