Man, I gotta get back to Manhattan!

Poor Adroomi.

can't stand asian chicks...buy me this buy me that....nag nag nag....i want gucci, i want fendi, wheres my prada and Louis vuitton? Was never able to find one I could date for longer than a week. Me no like asian....

You were probably with a korean chick, or a taiwanese chick. Those are the ones to look out for. All these girls you see in the picture, are down to earth and just want to have fun. I can vouch for these girls. But I know what you mean. I don't even think it has to do with race. I've dated all kinds of girls. There are always a few in every race that give em a bad name. If you really want the lowdown.....City Trash are the worst. Those are the people who live in the city and only hangout in the city. Making 75k a year but spending 80k a year. There are a few in every major city i've been to

Damn New Yorker's

John: You gotta invite me out with you some night.

and for the record so I don't come off as racist...I am first generation Chinese(cantonese)

Ryan: you're always invited man.

Engali01: nah dude, racism never even crossed my mind. I was just saying that every race has a few. It also depends on where you live and grew up. Most of these girls know what tradition is. The ones you speak of are the ones that have no respect for themselves IMO. I detest those types of girls

Looks like a rocking good time Stogeeboy.

Great picture.....looks like fun for all, wish I were a little, ha, lot younger!

Stogie,

I'm just curious...why do you say to watch out for Koreans and Taiwanese? I've met good and bad people (women) from all walks of life, and I can't really say that any race or culture is different than the other.

A spoiled rich little city girl is a spoiled rich little city girl, and besides the rich girls in Tokyo, and some of the elite in Hong Kong or Beijing, I find Asian women on the whole to be NOT as spoiled as described above. In fact, most Korean women, up until about a year ago, didn't even have a clue what Gucci, Prada, and Louis Vuitton were/are. Those name brands are just now starting to make it into Korea. The same for Taiwan. There simply wasn't the money in those countries to be spending on $3000 handbags.

Now are we referring to Asian women that live in the big cities in America? If that's the case, then perhaps we are dealing with women that ARE in fact from the socially elite, and have developed that all too popular "I'm important" attitude.

Engali01,

if you are having trouble dating an Asian woman for over a week, how are you fairing with non-Asians? Have you dated whites, blacks, hispanics, etc? Perhaps you just are dating the wrong women. Are you sure you're speaking from experience, or are you just relaying some stereotype to us, that you heard about? I'm being quite honest here. I'm not trying to argue, just trying to get to the basis of your comment.

You seem to be chasing around some fairly materialistic, high maintenance women, who after less than a week of knowing you, have no issues with demanding that you buy them VERY expensive designer brands (as mentioned above, well into the thousands of dollars). I can't recall a single time in my entire life that I've ever met a woman (of any race) that after one date, and less than a week of knowing each other, was demanding that I spend thousands of dollars on her.

Please relay some of your experiences.

Androomi, to my knowledge and experience...Korean and Taiwanese women are the worst when it comes to materialism. The Korean and Taiwanese girls that I've dated told me that it was in their tradition for the male to lavish them with stuff. I've also had Korean and Taiwanese men tell me the same. Some straight from their country, others that were born in the U.S. This is my experience and the extent of my knowledge. For that reason, I am told and warned and will warn others to stay away from them as a whole. I'm pretty sure that there are a lot out there that aren't like this, but I already have a wonderful loving girlfrend and wouldn't want to bother with it even if I didn't have a girlfriend.

I am speaking from experience, I have dated many different ethnicities, though not all. I find that, though a generalization, my comments ring true to my experience. I may be exaggerating a bit about the 1 week thing, it is generally longer than that. I also agree with what stogeeboy wrote. It is very much embedded in the asian culture for women to expect to be lavished with materialistic items as it is so much more than just "nice things". It is a status symbol, but that is with most everyone, however it becomes incresingly so within the social circles of asian women. I know other women like to show off thier things to friends but with asians it takes off to a new level of "keeping up with the Jones". Beleive me, my mother, hell all my female relatives are like this no matter what thier socio-economic class is. I know that they are not all like this, and all races/ethnicities have women like that but he pure proportion of them in asian cultures is staggering in my experience.

Okay. I'll buy that.

I just see a different view of things though. It could be just luck that we see different folks is all.

Prior to the Olympics in '88, most Koreans earned about $750 USD per month (middle class). Now that's up to about $2500 USD per month (middle class). Having lavish gifts bought for them is not so easily done. After 8 years of living in Korea, I honestly can say that most Korean women wouldn't know a Gucci bag if it hit them in the head.

Don't take this question the wrong way, but are we discussing Asian women at home in Asia, or are we talking about Asian women that live in NYC? As I mentioned earlier, some of the more "uppity" ladies are fortunate enough to move into the city and "make it."

I'll grant you that many women want to be given gifts and "taken care of," but that's pretty much women in general. All ladies like to recieve presents and be adorned with items from their "man." That's a far cry though from "where's my Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton, and Fendi, however."

Women are women, and each one of them is different. Basically though they all want the same thing, and that's happiness, a strong, well-educated, physically fit provider that offers them emotional, physical, and psychological support, and a chance to provide for their family.

There are exceptions to the rule, and as of yet, I cannot classify any group to be worse than the others.

I was really speaking in reference to americanized asians, and those in Hong Kong which is where I am from

I can definately agree with you there. I was trying not to say that though, for fear I would be called "anti-American" as usual.

Do you ever get back to Hong Kong? I enjoy it there, but it can be a bit too busy for me. Good eating, that's for sure!

:)

Ditto to Engali.

I used to go back more often than now, while I was growing up I went every other or third year. But the last time I was there was when I was 16. so thats 7 years ago. Your right it is crowded there but I love the atmosphere
