[quote=CHYNAGYRL,282018]Just speaking for myself. I dated a Chinese guy who immigrated to Canada about two years. He was quite Chinese-chauvinist and often talked about Chinese "power" and complained a lot about racism in Canada etc. I found his views bigoted and could not relate to his attitude. There are men like him in Western countries. I think that it's not that Western women are not attracted to Chinese men, it's perhaps their minds they are not attracted to. (i.e. the conservative and insecure way of thinking). For instance Canadians emphasize equality between people of different ethnic backgrounds, whereas in Asian culture, Asian people see social relations as the relationship between the strong and the weak (you are either dominant or submissive, not equal)... It's that difference in how they see the world that makes it sometimes hard to date someone from a different background... Women want to marry someone who is very confident with who they are, and wise, and I think sometimes male immigrants are not all that comfortable with their social position in a new country. When they do become integrated and comfortable, then I think the local women (i.e. Westerners) find them so much more attractive.[/quote]
