Dating as an Asian male (Truth/Myths) (Page 2)

[kxera]

I've seen multiple Blasian couples and they never had any probems

[Keyspirits]

No Latiasian? Or Mexicasian?

[kxera]

Nope. Most Asians date other Asians but I've only seen Asian + black or Asian + white

[lonerider]

Maybe you have a hard time getting girls because you don't know that you're dumb? India is in Asia so Indians are Asians.

[SilenRose]

India is in Asia but people from India are not Asian.

[lonerider]

@SilenRose so, they are african? european? australian? american?

[phanindra554]

Yes, Indians are Asians

[SilenRose]

They're Indian, OP. I feel you're confusing continents with countries...

Mexico is part of North America as well as Canada. Do you call Canadians Americans or Mexicans Americans?

[lonerider]

@SilenRos France is a country in Europe , so all French are Europeans. Similarly, India is a country in Asia, so all Indians are Asians. When you say Indians are not Asians, your logic also implies that French are not Europeans. You are the one getting confused here.

[lonerider]

And by the way, Canadians and Mexicans are North Americans.. yes. Just like Brazilians and Argentinians are south American.

[SilenRose]

So by your logic Russians are also Asian because despite Russia being predominately in Europe part of it is on the Asian continent.

What you're also saying is that you go up to a Mexican or Canadian and say "Hey are you North American?"

[lonerider]

Russia is a different thing. talk about a normal country which is entirely in one continent. IF a French is European, If a British is European, IF an Austrian is European, If an Ethiopian is African, why is an Indian not Asian?

Lol I find it amusing that you'd be offended by something as small as that. Or maybe you're just finding something to pick on because what I've written offends you but you know its true? It's you know a person doesn't have a real rebuttal when they pick on another persons comment for grammar errors.

Anyway. You are right. Yes, technically India is part of the Asian Continent as so therefore technically Indians are Asian. Of course Australians/New Zealanders are technically "Asian" as well, but they are both predominantly Caucasian populations - and so generally speaking you would not call the average white Australian person Asian. What I am referring to here as Asian is "East Asians" or "SE Asians". But having said that, Indian guys don't have it easy either in the West, so I suppose much of what I said can be applied to them as well in dating.

And don't worry about me, I get plenty of girls, dated plenty hence I feel that I have sufficient 'anecdotal evidence' to write this take

[lonerider]

Your take didn't offend me as much as the comment "India is in Asia but people from India are not Asian." did. Sheer lack of common sense.

[Curmudgeon]

Perhaps the term "Oriental", as in (East) Asian, which is seen as derogatory, will come back?

I am reminded of an exchange between two friends: Debbie, an (East) Asian American, took umbrage at Partha's use of the term "Oriental" to describe his experiences in the Far East, as opposed to the Indian subcontinent, where he is from.

"But you wouldn't understand--you're not Asian" said Debbie to Partha. This took Partha aback, since he was called "Asian" all during his time in the UK. But somehow in the USA, he wasn't anymore?

[lonerider]

Might come back.. who knows? :)

[Dtegesd123]

All my Indian friends hate being called Asian, But they don't think they are middle eastern either... I don't know what to say.

[lonerider]

@Dtegesd123 I wouldn't hate it if anyone called me an Asian. Any person with at least. 10 grams of brain won't get offended. India is in Asia so we ARE Asians.

As an Asian man I'm calling bullshit. I've never had a problem with girls liking me, going out on dates, or having relationships. I am about 6ft and definitely do not have a scrawny/weak frame.

[myTake Owner]

Calling bullshit on what? These are my experiences/observations and I'm telling it how it is. I'm Asian, I currently have a girlfriend and I've never had a real problem getting dates either. I've previously dated plenty of white, black and Asian girls. But this doesn't mean what I've written isn't true for the average Asian male living in a Western Society.

[QooLipBite]

Bro... Do you kind telling me how D'yu get so tall

Height is rare in my genetics 😒

What have you been doing/eating?

[Opinion Owner]

When I was a kid, I would drink a gallon of milk a week. In the 7th grade I could be easily mistaken for someone in the 10th grade.

[Anonymous]

What do you mean by riding a tricycle first before riding a bicycle?

[myTake Owner]

I admit its a bad analogy. But basically for a socially in adept person, it would make more sense to develop normal social skills (small steps) and build up one's confidence before trying to pick up women as the success rate will otherwise be very low. Confidence is attractive quality to women and its built on prior success, so if there is consistent failure its becomes a vicious cycle and eats away at the persons confidence.

[I_am_repulsive]

Time well spent...

[xxbebosxx]

@I_am_repulsive I like your sarcasm. I personally don't agree with this take at all.

[myTake Owner]

@xxbebosxx Which point (s) don't you agree with? They are based upon my experiences, but I will give an explanation/elaborate on any one of them.

[Nathand]

everyone wants the white girl.

[Peepz]

'The' white girl? That's what I really hate. That picture the most guys have about a 'perfect' white girl, uhg.

[Bards]

I feel this.

[myTake Owner]

How?

[Bards]

Because it makes sense for people couple of types of people ik.

[abundantlyrich]

Asian guys (yellow) are predictable.

[platona]

[platona]
