I'm a middle eastern women from iraq. I think it depends on your look. Not all Arab girls are pretty. Me personally i feel white men are the most shy at approaching an Arab girl in hijab. I get plenty of glances from them wherever i go and especially when i worked at the bank but i think they assume they can't talk to us because of our culture. I even had some say can I please say something or I hope you dont take this the wrong way when trying to compliment me. Now other races are a lot more forward. I think if Arab women took off hijab they would have no issues with most white men. Cause pretty is pretty and we have excellent figures as well but we cover it all up.

I don't know but I love me some white dick. i don't have a problem. yuuump black girl right here
Depending on the country.. I have a British friend that I've talked to and play video games with for 12 years now, they seem to have a thing for not liking anyone from the middle east.. also could just be his own thing but news and stuff he shares tends to lead me elsewhere.
Personally no particular preference for a female. As long as we click all is good. So assuming your not USA living... could be part of the problem. If you are.. maybe just not the right guys for you, and you should be grateful for not wasting anymore time on them.
I don't think it's a question of attraction, but a social issue. If I'm an Arabic guy, and I approach a European woman, she may or may not accept me, but by and large if she does reject me, that's the end of the issue.
If I'm a European guy and I approach an Arabic girl, not only do I have to worry about whether she accepts or rejects me, but there's also the possibility that her father, brothers, or others are going to assault me - whether she accepts me or not.
Given that reality, what would you do?

I'm a white guy. 6 ft 2 inch big Scandinavian guy from the USA. I know I like Arab women. My ex-girlfriend is Iraqi and muslim. She's my ex, so obviously things didn't work out, but I still miss her. I think a few of the challenges involved are: First, it often seems unlikely that the woman's family would accept a secular non-arab (if the family is Muslim). Second, sometimes it is assumed the cultural differences will be too much. I still tried in my case but I guess it was too much. Or maybe she just decided she didn't want me after she got to know me better. I'll probably never know. Anyways, most guys would probably be unwilling to get into a relationship they don't see as having a chance of succeeding. I don't have that problem because I'm impulsive and don't mind suffering a bit if it's for something worthwhile. Good luck. There are plenty of white men out there who I'm sure would love to be with you but you may have to make more effort than you expect, in order to overcome the initial reluctance, and begin to get to know them.
my personal estimation as to why that is: because those arab people that end up coming to us ruin your reputation here. i guess turkish men on average seem to have more attractive features to european women. thick black hair, beards, "macho like" behavior. european men are on average less "manly", cause they see women more as "equal" to them and not as lesser than them or as people they have to "protect", cause women fought hard for their emancipation :D i guess european women made their own men less attractive to themself in a weird turn of events.
Well I'm sure it's not the answer you want to hear but I'm European myself and no I'm not particularly attracted to middle eastern women on a physical level. Sharp features, hairy etc. Just symply not my type at all. Even the women that are considered super beautiful are not my type especially when compared to women in the same league of other ethnicities. Obviously looks aren't everything and there would of course be scenarios where I could look past physical attraction. But I also think that sort of paring is less likely in today's climate. Being seen with a middle eastern woman can be dangerous even if your own family is supposedly secular.
We do, we just don't want to wait until marriage, or convert to Islam, or get beaten up by her brother and nephews (who are somehow always fine with male relatives doing everything the quran has forbidden, as long as it's with European girls).
Your family may be very secular, but most Arab families aren't, so guys aren't going to assume they can just go after you without any problems.Probably the same reason why black guys love some white pussy but black girls would never touch a white boy...
Really depends on the guy, I am classified as Arab while I am not but I am not that attracted to European women.
And from what I hear from around me, got lots of European friends, they are kinda scared dealing with the family of the girl. But they are attracted to Arabs, pretty ones ofcourse.That's far from true. Most men think like that because they simply see Arab women only when they are covered with a hjab or niqab. Whenever an Arab woman reveals her body and full face their jaw's drop from how attractive she is usually. Considering Chaning Tatum a guy who a lot of women find attractive is married to a middle easterner that's how you know I am not bullshitting. His wife is Syrian.
A lot of guys think middle eastern women are stunning. But if she seems traditional we assume she's not interested in dating and being sexual.
By contrast even some middle eastern guys who plan to marry a traditional girl seem to feel happy playing the field with western girls.I am a white guy and have a thing for certain Arab girls. Only some not all. I have a crush on this Arab porn star Mia Khalifa. I would like to date an Arab woman but only if we had enough in common where it wouldn't be awkward.
It has something to do what they wear! Arab women are Normally more reserved than European girls, because of Islam of course, and European men look for fun sexy girls. that's basically it.
Most likely because european men are very much into european women. You have greece, spain, Italy and many more. Gorgeous women there and those girls are sought out big time
Probably because men had bad experiences with Arabs (migrants) while women tend to ignore many things.
Which is why women across Europe would have relations with German soldiers in the 1940's.I have a lot of friends from Sweden who find success with guys and girls, for girls it's just about how approachable they are, Arab parents are known to be strict with their girls and many guys don't want to deal with that.
Prejudices are common among people, not just white people.
it's easier if you're westernized. I look somewhat arab/Spanish/greek and my boyfriend is white
Depends on girl and half the time we can't see yous all covered n shit so how do we know
I'm a White guy European decent and I like them, as long as they don't cover their hair.
Cultural differences.
I thought they did not find the guys attractive
Why don't you approach them?Maybe if they smelled better- peew!
