原文第一行: Satire, proceed with caution

I must agree that LOLcats would not work on girls. The grammar is not funny! You should instead use AllYourBase.

I’m an Asian man in my 30s who came to the U.S. as an adult, and I have to tell you that I’m an equal opportunity player. I’m not dating one race exclusively over others just because others say I should date this woman and not that woman. I date who I choose. I date who I like. Period.

I understand that there are also stereotypes against 1st generation Asian men for their mannerism and cultural differences compared to that of the mainstream, so called culturally seasoned American-born-Asians. Although it may be generally true, I’ve also met some intelligent and very open 1st generation Asian men. It is sometimes just a degree of fluency of English that makes or breaks. Yes, although I try hard, my English isn’t sometimes working out perfectly in certain social settings. I’d have to say that when I first moved here, I didn’t have a clue as to the degree of complexity and prejudices that have been instilled deeply in American culture.

Interestingly, my first girlfriend was a blond girl from France. I was an inexperienced virgin at the age of 26. It was not that I was looking for a white woman at that time, but rather she came on to me. It just happened. Before I met her, I was just a typical, traditional and shy Asian boy. Ever since then, my dating life has literally exploded. I’ve dated Japanese, Taiwanese, Russian and South African and have found some Indians and Jewish women quite attractive. I’ve also dated some typical (ok, prejudice right here) white American women.

I don’t know hot it happened. I’m just an average guy with average looks, rather taller than average Asian (close to 6′), small penis but possess ample amount of CONFIDENCE. 

I’d also have to say that it has been a really great experience to meet and date girls from all different backgrounds and national origins, and it has opened up my eyes. I feel I can date pretty much any woman in any race as long as I treat each with respect and try to communicate honestly and confidently. Yes, there are times that I get rejected and sometimes I get disappointed due to their engraved prejudice, but that hasn’t stopped me from asking girls I like out for a date.

I think what gets me going everyday is “Respect and Confidence.” I know the difference between “cockiness” and “confidence.” I want to tell this to all the Asian men out there. I know it’s tough to meet women of your dreams when everyday media pounds and brainwashes everyone with images of hunky, sexy young white males as “desirable,” the top of the food chain and the alpha males. Yes, social prejudice is overwhelming sometimes, and the odds are generally against us, but when you try to build your own persona, you will find women of your dreams. So focus on what you are good at and try to work on your weakness.

I admit, after all, physical beauty catches my eyes first. But what boils down to in a serious relationship is that, common life philosophy and cool personality overrides physical beauty in the long run. What turns me off is beautiful women with bad attitudes. I find educated, intelligent, caring women really attractive regardless of their ethnicity.

Maybe I sound too serious about this issue, but I also enjoy all the comedies about ethnic jokes. I think it brings people together as long as the “intent” is not malicious.

So if I, an Asian immigrant, can do this, all of you guys who grew up here, who speak perfect English sure can do better than me, right? It’s all up to you. Fight for your dream, stand for yourself, and women will come to you. Don’t just sit there and complain. Make a difference. Show what Asian men can do for women in any color. They will think again. Am I wrong about this?

Asian Pride (with respect to all).
