I've noticed that in Southern California there seems to be an abundance of young attractive Asian women coupled with White men- not that there's anything wrong with that, racial harmony and assimilation is a beautiful thing- but I'm just curious as to what the motives are behind it all. After all, you don't see nearly as many White women dating Asian men so there is clearly a choice being made by Asian women- or by White men- to NOT date someone of their own ethnicity.
More specifically, the issue I'm trying to explore here is whether or not many of the young Asian women in the Southern California area are suffering from some sort of identity issues concerning their own ethnicity; or if this generation of second-generation Asian-American women have developed some sort of self-loathing for the men of their own community because they have been influenced by the negative portrayals of Asian men in
American media and the derogatory sterotypes that may be propagated by many.

Or is it because they feel that by dating a White man that they are somehow "moving up" the sociopolitical ladder- at least their kids are- and that they view themselves as "unattainable" to their own ethinicity.
Or is it purely a physical thing? Nothing wrong with honesty! :)
