It is a perfectly legitimate question to speculate about. And as I must seem to reiterate 100 times to so many people who refuse to read my posts properly, the original post was in response to TheKorean's blog where he speculated the reason was solely down to Western prejudice. I thought that was unfair and decided to write about other possible reasons.<br /><br />I believe it is only possible for me to put ideas into people's heads if they take the time to read my posts on an insignificant blog and I respect people's ability to make up their own minds about things. <br /><br />Get off your high horse, and answer the challenge, which no one seems to be able to do, instead of throwing insults at me for how I will bring up my children in the future (how dare you by the way), and making a string of non-arguments. By what you wrote it is like I said that every American was a handsome beast or something and other races are ugly, never even hinted at anything remotely like that. Read again, and again, and then again and you must just grasp the points I was trying to make. It might also help if you read the original post and found out the context in which the whole post was written.Smudgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00449129060365290678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-58801728736233154442014-08-14T18:16:55.097-07:002014-08-14T18:16:55.097-07:00You all should stop judging and putting labels on ...You all should stop judging and putting labels on people.

I was never arguing against this, but was merely speculating on other possible factors. Also, the effect of height of men, for example, effects their perceived status in the eyes of women.<br /><br />I have just one question about what you write here; surely status is more important to women than men? You wrote this:<br /><br />"The male of lower status groups reach for women of higher status."<br /><br />Surely this isn't true but mainly the other way round, surely Women of lower status reach for men of higher status? Evolutionary biologists have been telling us for years of the major differences between how men and women perceive attractiveness of a mate. While there is some divergence between the two, it is clear women value status more than men, who value appearance higher than anything else. In the majority of cases it is also women who select a mate, not the other way round. <br /><br />While I am sure there is a fascination in many men in lower status groups for women in high status groups, I don't see this as a driving force in the abundance of Asian women with While men rather than Asian men with White women, indeed it makes very little sense. Unless Asians are the highest status group, which you seem to say, yet I can't believe and TheKorean (who wrote the original article to which I responded) would not agree with also. Indeed the whole point of his article was to argue that White people were put in the higher status bracket by prejudice in society.<br /><br />In short, I agree with you, but I am slightly confused about the details of what you wrote.Smudgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00449129060365290678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-55772204790431047942014-01-27T10:47:08.220-08:002014-01-27T10:47:08.220-08:00Asian

The anomaly is that we're living in an age that most Asians (and whites) don't realize they're of the highest status which is leading to alot of Asian women's poor mating selection. Sucks for their kids.<br /><br />So we'll always have the following occur:<br />Asian men complaining about their women with non-Asians.<br />White men complaining about their women with Hispanics and Blacks.<br />Hispanic men complaining about their women with Blacks.<br />Black men complaining about their women<br /><br />It's a generalization, and I could write papers on this (I have), but it seems like the whole internet is so clueless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-13018357499194696942013-12-25T08:11:06.758-08:002013-12-25T08:11:06.758-08:00Basketball players, football players, soccer playe...Basketball players, football players, soccer players and some business owners are professionals within different fields <a href="http://www.beziehungs-dynamik.de/" rel="nofollow">Paartherapie</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14614820675245811609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-20986524684508983952013-11-30T03:52:39.468-08:002013-11-30T03:52:39.468-08:00My intention with the speculation was merely to gi...My intention with the speculation was merely to give some examples to suggest that the reason for more White man/Asian women couples is not simply down to Western prejudice and media bias and favouritism.

I hope you are doing well in South Korea! I am one of the people who don't find you (or your writings) offensive. You make interesting points. But I am curious what is your intention is with all this Asian male/Western women speculation?<br /><br />Anyway, I do agree that you cannot generalize.<br /><br />Are all women attracted to Asian males? No. Just as much as not all women are attracted to White men.<br /><br />Are many women attracted to Asian men? Sure. Just like how many women are attracted to White men.<br /><br />Are some women not attracted to Asian men? Probably. Just as much as how some women are not attracted to White men.<br /><br />(P.S. statistics don't prove much in social complexes...so don't bother...this is to everybody. Just a tip.)<br /><br />I think it all comes down to attitude..... not race, appearance, society, media or whatever. Admittedly, I do agree that many Asian (not just Korean) males are a bit more on the conservative side, But I do think younger people are more open-minded.<br /><br />Cheers ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-16872838306664494902013-11-23T23:59:36.086-08:002013-11-23T23:59:36.086-08:00There is probably some truth to this.

Of course not in all cases, so one should be careful not to generalise to all such couples, but there is some social/cultural theory here, which although controversial, would certainly be worth exploring. One should certainly be open to what you mention being one of many possible factors in the phenomenon of the disparity in divorce rates.Smudgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00449129060365290678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-4547462189679785632013-11-18T20:21:02.754-08:002013-11-18T20:21:02.754-08:00First, who are you disagreeing with?

I couldn't agree more that Asian/White relationships as well as many other mixed racial/mixed cultural relationships must run into more problems simply down to the world we live in. Not always though.<br /><br />Second, "The white male is a closet paedophile, or someone with little confidence dating his own race", goodness me, do I really need to debunk this BS? Perhaps some are like that, but you made a pretty broad statement there. How about this; I am not a closet paedo, neither had I that much trouble dating people of my own race. I just happened to spend some time in South Korea and met a girl who I fell in love with. My initial attraction to her might have had something to do with her race in her long black hair and dark eyes (something that I find attractive), maybe even the fact she was quite little and cute, however, I don't think that makes me a closet paedophile. So that is one person off that ridiculous statement. <br />Smudgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00449129060365290678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-28972119061949563192013-11-18T10:17:05.922-08:002013-11-18T10:17:05.922-08:00erracial dynamics.[9] White wife/Asian husband cou...erracial dynamics.[9] White wife/Asian husband couples are 59% more likely to divorce by the 10th year of marriage than White wife/White husband couples, whereas Asian wife/White husband couples show only 4% greater likelihood of divorce than White wife/White husband couples over the same period<br /><br />DO YOU KNOW WHY? <br />ASIAN WOMEN LIKE TO PRETEND EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT, THEY CAN ACCCEPT CHEATING, AS LONG AS SHE GETS THE MONEY AND NOT THE MISTRESS<br /><br />THE WHITE WOMAN DOESN'T WANT CHEATING IN THE MARRIAGE, SO IF THE ASIAN MALE CHEATS, SHE DIVORCES<br /><br />ALSO, IN MANY OF THIS ASIAN WOMEN/WHITE MEN COUPLES , THE ASIAN WOMEN DOESN'T WORK SO THE WHITE MALE IS THE PROVIDER, <br />SHE'LL NEVER ASK FOR DIVORCE, SHE NEED HIS MONEY TO SURVIVE!!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8154452806180550551.post-39432775226977177882013-10-23T15:03:30.112-07:002013-10-23T15:03:30.112-07:00Funny you should say this, because I had a big deb...Funny you should say this, because I had a big debate with a commenter on here (through PM) and he linked me to lots of research on this issue that I was completely unaware of.

He is a regular commenter on my blog and and he is usually very civil and backs up what he write with a fair amount of research. I have challenged the commenter to justify that statement in a private message and I am currently in dialogue with him in argument. From what I have seen so far though, I have a feeling that comment is not quite as controversial as it first appeared. The rest of what he wrote in that comment was sensible fact-based logic, which no one has criticised. I am thinking about publishing our debate on this blog, but we'll see.<br /><br />Think you are going to have to justify, "Your post encourages idiots" comment by answering my challenge.
