I know Yellow fever is big all over the world but for some reason its especially huge in the former British colonies like the US, Australia, and Canada. Every time I go to one of these countries I see all the men going after Asian women and bypassing all the other women. In such diverse countries such as Austalia, US, and Canada why have Asian women become the most popular women? When I visit these countries all the men seem to be talking about is "hot Asian chicks", and now I hear that Asian pornography is now more popular then porn with other races of women. Whats going on? Is this admiration or has it become an obsession or fetish? Is this a new phenomenon or has this been going on for awhile now. And is it ethical for an older men to leave their wives to shack up with a much younger Asian women?(I’ve seen a lot of that too)

They aren't.

There's really no PC way of answering this question, but I do agree- I see it far more than any other interracial coupling group, so there must be some social significance to it beyond random chance.
Perhaps for gene dispersion reasons, many people like the exotic- true for men and women- remember it takes 2 to tango.
Also, lets remember men are much more visually stimulated creatures than women, so possibly some of the typical characteristics that Asian women have, like smooth and relatively hairless skin, silky hair, and slim figures- the quintessential representations of "femaleness" in our culture- are attractive to many men.
Maybe to a far lesser degree (and this is the really un-PC part), it may be that filial and even 1st generation born Asian women come from cultures that value masculinity or the "take charge" guy. Im sure this must be attractive to men in western cultures that have been slowly eroding the male ethos for a few decades now.

You wrote..."former British colonies like the US, Australia, and Canada. " Err...these are all vastly different countries. Even within one country (let's use Canada as an example) you will find enormous regional differences. Major cities attract more immigrants than smaller cities. Certain climates may also be preferable to Asian immigrants. In Canada, you will find many more Asians living in the Vancouver area than you will in Winnepeg or St. John's (for example). I think you are over-generalising ALOT. Where I live in Canada the typical freshly immigrated Asians are young, upwardly-mobile professional couples (from China). They may or may not have small children and always are very well educated.
I think you are overgeneralising and the information you have is less-than-accurate about the scope of this huge "problem" (as you seem to perceive it). Could it be all in your mind?

White females have distinctive possibilities. properly i'm a white guy and my sister has a Taiwanese boyfriend. and a large style of ladies folk in my college are particularly infatuated with the male ok-Pop singers so i'm beneficial there are various white women folk that like Asian adult males!

I don't think Asian women are that more popular really. But if they are, it's probably due to the whole 'foreign mystique' thing.
Asian women are different to your average caucasian gal, sort of a novelty factor.
Just like American girls are obsessed with English accents. Well, from what I've seen over here. ;-)

haha... i am asian and i have to laugh at this.
most white men get yellow fever after being in asia for a while because asians are mostly petite, slim and age slower than the ladies of their homeland.
Us small little things are much easier to fling over their shoulders and carry around, therefore showing how manly they are. And i hate to be carried around like a doll sometimes.
And it seems to be that some of the white men are sick and tired of the bitchy and bossy ladies back home too.
Many older men leave their wives to shack up with younger women, so i can't say if it's ethical or not.

Asians are light in build and remind men of children. Those that have tendencies toward the young (without wishing to go to jail) choose Asian women, plus they assume wrongly that Asian women are slaves, although Asian women do appear to be more of a different understanding they do get exploited and frankly they don't see this as wrong as Americans do think exploitation is wrong. Actually it's an age old desire by men, not just recent. Because of past wars military men overseas would choose the women where they were stationed. They were in Iwo Jima, Philippines, Japan, Viet Nam, etc. So they married when they couldn't stand to be alone anymore.

I think it's because Asian women fit that is perceived to be beautiful in those parts of the world. Petite both in stature and form, the tanned skin and great hair. They do have a grace to then a really femininity what some women lack in our parts. Not to mention the domestic qualities.

Maybe because men do not consider women in US Can or Australia marriage material anymore ? I cant really tell, because Iam from Europe and Iam not aware of a preference torwards a certain race here. Well maybe trimmed blonde Russian girls but they are welcome on all five continents I guess.
How reliabel is your source about Asian porn beeing the most popular ? If it is the most popular in America or Can well yes it gives you to think, but if you consider that Asians outnumber whites it is not surprising Asian porn sells more than white porn worldwide.

Generally this is because of stereotypes about how asian women are exotic and 'submissive.' *snorts* I'd like to think SOME men actually date asian women for their personalities. Oh, and please refrain from using the words 'yellow fever.' It's a racist term and is very offending.

I wouldn't say asian women hv become more popular, but many men, which like petite and submissive women, may tend to favor asian girls. Also, if they hv any sort of fetishes towards younger girls, the asian women would satisfy their desires because of their petite size and smaller frame, which would border on being pedophilic.
