There are so many different types of ABC's. (I'm not going to include all Asians b/c that's just too broad and I'm no novelist.) But the main differences are etiquette, attitude, capability of speaking Chinese and English with perfect accents, physical appearances (ABC's are bigger and healthier obviously), and their level of Chinese.

I don't think their interracial dating preferences differ much. We all think white girls are hot, but white girls gossip about more nonsense than any other race, IMO, and they're much more lecherous (which can also be hot). As for Asian girls, we all pretty much know how insecure they can be about their shortcomings in the T&A area (which most Americans of all types of ethnic backgrounds can learn to tolerate, just b/c of the ways we've been brought up).

Yes, I think there is a difference in being Americanized and actually growing up here. Take Hong Kong for example haha. Starbucks everywhere. Just joking. But yeah, I think American born mainland and Taiwanese girls lean towards the valley girl/white girl/nerdy white girl side. But for American born Cantonese girls, I think they lean more towards trying to look pretty, like to hang out with Viet ricers a lot, etc. I hang around Taiwanese/mainland-American girls more, so I wouldn't know much about them, but it's the image that they usually portray to the public. But then, I also see some American-Canto girls hang out with the same types of people Taiwanese/mainland-American girls do too. I think this all relates to dating. Here's the main point: Most Asian girls want strong (not necessarily in a physical sense) men to cover up their insecurities.

And when you type on AIM, doNt TyPE LiKe ThiS.

oh yea i hate when asians TyPE LiKe ThiS, it's so stereotypical

i just think that the ones that grew up here are less superficial compared to those cantonese girls, for one thing, i know for a fact that if you see a very stylish asian girl who wears quite a bit of brand name clothing, skinny (meaning not much on the T&A area), but not quite weird outfits (like the japanese), she is most likely a hong kong girl or a very trendy taiwanese girl whose parents are very rich. yes HK girls do like to look pretty and skinny for that matter, they are under the Japanese influence, but cannot quite completely copy it, and in the mean time, trying very hard to "copy" their styles, which gives little individualism to observe. i think we are the copycat, shameful to say, but we really are, we dont have our own style per ce. what i strive to do is to mix and match american style and japanese style, or go for whatever i think looks good on me.

hehe..they hang out with ricers? well i think so too, they are the ones that go "oh that's shiny, how much is that?" "wow u got a BMW? nice car!" "oh i drive a Benz, how much hoursepower? i dont know, my parents bought me that" type of girls LOL

and i wanna ask u a question. what do you think about the American born asians and Asia born asians? any differences? surely they are different, but do their attitudes toward interracial dating differ? or they are pretty much the same?

the reason i asked is that i do see differences, because they grew up in different cultures and traditions, take me for example, i am americanized, but i didnt grow up here, so i am different than a typical American born Asian girl in regards to dating. what do u think?

I have a penchant for categorizing asians into two categories: ABA's (American-born, second generation Asians) and FOB's (Fresh-off-the-boat, recently-emigrated asians) of which I consider myself a member of the latter. It's delusive to think I can dilute either group into a certain set of "characteristics" but, generally speaking, ABA's are considerably more mindful about their own appeal to others whereas FOB's seem more resolute on success (where it be financial or social) and less attuned to humanitarian values. Again, this varies from ethnicity to ethnicity, but this is my observation regarding Cambodian-Americans.

Likewise, it seems a large percentage of FOB's, though they maybe proficient in other areas such as Math and the Sciences, seem lacking in the other areas such as English, Humanities and the arts. Though Math and Science are essential tools for building a career, it seems one of the most overlooked skills in the Asian household is literacy, either in English or the native tongue which in itself creates a barrier, if not culture clash, between Americanized Asian children and their Old World Asian parents. I've come to the conclusion that aptitude in both English and the vernacular are pivotal in one's self-awareness and alignment within a community and social consciousness as a whole. I feel this is a bigger issue with FOB's than it is ABA's.

On the flipside, I think FOB's are more culturally conscious when it comes to their own heritage. In the process of assimilation and Americanization, ABA's tend to be less prudent in regards to tradiation and proper etiquette. I personally know a few ABA's who call their parents by their first name. Such a practice would be considered blasphemy in my household where youngsters are taught at a young age to always bow to elders and crouch when walking by adults. Heck even making eye contact with an elder is considered a desecration of the highest order.

In regards to interracial relationships, I think ABA's are much more open to dating people of a different race. Because many FOB's aren't as culturally-conscious, hence open-minded, as ABA's they still wrestle with their own xenophobia. To put it bluntly, I don't care what color a woman is as long as we're compatible. If she's a social/political activist, has a soft spot for Spaghetti Westerns, respects video games and animation as an artform, admires German Expressionism, then I'm head over heels for her regardless is she's red, blue or green.

I also don't understand the infatuation with white girls just because they're white, I've rambled endlessly about how ridiculous that is above so...yeah...that's all I have to say.

i don't think that it has anything w/skin color but physical characteristics that come w/the package. I myself find girls of asian or caucascian characteristics (facial and physical) very attractive. In other words, I love mulatto girls (black+white mixed) who have the physical and facial attributes of their white bretheren, and the skin of their other parents. Perhaps that's why i find girls of native heritage attractive as well, because we all know that they posses some of the asian characteristics back when crossing the Bering strait.
