Are Asian guys often seen as ugly?

[snowy]

I've just met an Asian guy as a friend and he told me that there is a common idea that Asian guys are seen as ugly. Do you agree? I think he was quite handsome though...

The idea that Asian men are often seen as "ugly" is a stereotype that has been perpetuated in various forms of media, particularly in Western contexts, but it is not an absolute or universally held view. Beauty standards are culturally constructed and can differ significantly across different societies.

It's essential to recognize the role of media representation, which has historically marginalized or stereotyped Asian men, contributing to skewed perceptions. However, these stereotypes are increasingly being challenged and deconstructed. Many Asian men are celebrated for their looks, talent, and charisma both within their own communities and more broadly.

Discriminatory or stereotypical viewpoints do exist but should not be accepted as the norm or an objective truth. Individual preferences in attraction are just that—individual—and it's not accurate or fair to make blanket statements about any racial or ethnic group based on these biases or stereotypes.

For instance, this is one of the most handsome Asian actors: Henry Golding

Unfortunately in the West there are some unfair/untrue stereotypes about Asian men but There Women are touted are being attractive feminine a Sometimes submissive then other group of women. Unfortunately Asian men are still usually shown in The media as being only nerdy Weak not caring how they look or Just Kung Fo Masters or they are considered not as attractive as others for on average being smaller. I 100% believe that Asian men or Shorter Men are Attractive.

I've seen some attractive Asian guys, but I'm usually not attracted to them. I would say it depends on the person. Beauty is not universal.

Asian guys tend to be short, and shortness is make guys unattractive, white guys are tall.

Not all white men though

I don't know about ugly, but comedians always joke that Asians are the one race of guys that no women want to date. However, I don't know if this is due to their looks or their feminine qualities or something else

I lived in America all my life and I have never heard of that once. I've have heard of the stereotypes of Asians being good at math or science, tiger moms, or eating rice at every meal, but stereotypes are just that... stereotypes. If you want the genuine truth you have to judge people as individuals not as groups.

Back to your question, no I disagree. I think Asian men can be very handsome 😍 I've had a huge crush on an Asian guy before. Any race can be handsome or attractive. If I have to get specific I would say it has more to do with a nice jawline, broad shoulders, overall fit, and good looking hair (sorry fellas... though some guys look good shaved) rather than a particular race. Of course we are just talking about looks. Without good character even the most handsome man can become ugly to a woman really quick.

I personally think Asian guys are attractive and cute.

[jshm2]

No. K-pop has put to bed a lot of that notion.

India is in Asia.

If you are talking about Indians it’s true Indian men aren’t commonly thought of as attractive in Europe

I don't agree. It's all very subjective, our views on what beauty is.

Some Asian guys are really hot. But I don't generally see them as ugly or unattractive
