Uh......cheesecake is kinda yellow, ain't it? I loved how they said they never saw Asian guys on Cops. I've seen some Asians (guys and girls) on Cops, but most of them are greaseball toothless white trash. Overall I thought the article was pretty funny. He didn't mention Asian guys who date non-Asian girls (mainly white). I never ever see that anyway. Usually it's the other way around (Asian girls w/ white guys). I'm kinda surprised it didn't come up in the article, so I guess he even thinks non-Asians don't want Asian guys So would they be sellouts too? LOL This guy I know who is Korean, he said the same thing (he never sees white or non-Asian girls with Asian guys) but his justification was "They might date girls who aren't Asian but at least 90% of the time they won't marry one....they will probably marry a fellow yellow and that's that".

Speaking of a "curse," ever watch The Joy Luck Club? Talk about a stilted portrayal of Asian, er, Chinese men: they're all conniving, treacherous scumbags... What a joke.

Yea, read the book even. Although it maybe should be noted that Amy Tan probably doesn't like asian guys in the first place. For one she didn't marry one and two all her books are from a female's point of view. Still a good story though, oh well

his analysis was that... asian guys are losers because of the girls. i think the asian guys just need to brush up on the skills. of course, there are other factors.... heh... whahhahahaha

Damn, I've been advocating this for years too. Is there some sort of club for this that I don't know about? hehe

so true... most of us have been thinkin it, just no one's ever said it out loud before... but I can't really complain, much, since I've been fortunate enough to have had my fair share.

Funny article but not totally true...

I think Asian guys have their own attraction.

I have to agree with you bmw, most of them are portrayed as a scumbag. Not all Chinese men are like that, she generalized things. Perhaps it's her personal experience.

Great movie..yeah I watched it because of Russell Wong hehe

Perfect example of HOT HUNKY Asian guy!

Well, actually a lot of asian guys are scumbags. =)

I think there are quite a few differences between asians on the mainland on asians who travelled to different countries. Asian immigrants (or usually immigrants in general) have a harder work ethic and a more open mind than their native counterparts. You get a real sense of that when you travel.
