Why alot of asian women date/marry white men?

I am half-Filipino, half-Chinese who was born and raised in the Philippines and I came to the US when I was 25. I was really surprised (and disappointed) that most American men associate the label "submissive" to Asian women, particularly Filipino women. And when I ask them to be more specific and to elaborate, they'd answer that for one thing, Filipino women happily do the household chores and that makes them (the men) feel like "the man." So, here's the truth:

Yes, most Filipino women willingly do the household chores not because they were raised to be submissive or meek (have you seen our local soap operas?!?!) but because in our culture, doing the household chores is the best way to show our husbands that we love them. It is that simple.

Love (the real kind) is best expressed through one's actions so it really bugs me when American men misinterpret our sincerity as meekness. Whenever I hear American men use such labels, I turn my head around and explain this to them because if they can't understand the sincerity of our gestures, then they just missed out on the big picture.

Another reason was that Filipino women are known not to talk back to their husbands. Yes, that is true but again, it is not because we are submissive nor are we meek. It is because we are inherently aware that for our marriage to succeed, we have to put a lid on all the drama and all the fights. The Philippines is the only country that doesn't allow married couples to divorce so in my case, it's been drummed into my brain that I better make my marriage work.

does it really matter?

First of all, not many Asian girls want White men. I know many Chinese and Japanese girls, and most of them date men from their own countries. I've heard that it's mostly Filipinas who think it's wonderful to marry White Americans. I don't know any of them, so I can't ask them why they do it. There are many lies told about races lately. This is one of them.

My perspective is that it's a bogus statistic. As a member of an Asian community, I assure you that Asians overwhelmingly want to date other Asians (and the same kind of Asians) way more than Whites. The real stats:

And..."beautiful babies"? What? White guys produce more beautiful babies?!! Wonder where you got that from

Many people are getting off track, and bringing racism into this instead of answering your question, which is actually about desire and preferences.
I am a Caucasian man who is inexplicably drawn to Asian women like a moth to a flame. I have been this way as long as I can remember.
It has nothing to do with the look of the babies or anything of that nature.
For the record, I have known Many Asian women, and most are not submissive, nor do I want them to be.
For me, it is a culmination of what I am attracted to:
Petite body
High cheekbones
Dark eyes
Silky black hair
Sexy little butt

I have an asian female friend she is way too HARD to be bossed around :P

Because asian men don't treat their women very well......

I believe this isn't true but it depends on a person's preference. I know there are a lot of Asian women with white men but not all Asian women date them. Also I believe not all asian women are submissive. I'm Filipina American and I'm happy with my Filipino/Puerto Rican Fiancé. I believe that when you love someone, you look past their color and love them for what's inside their heart.

Preference reasons. Usually media driven attraction. Sometimes love.

I would say no two couples are all that similar.

Some couples truly love each other, some couples due to an arrangement for citizenship, some couples for money and power, and some due to a fetish phase.

am a pure Filipina and i have a white hot young smart loving white bf :-)
