how come only white guys marry women from china but no white girls marry men from china?

Question

I noticed alot of interracial marriages between Asian women and white Caucasian guys. In fact, I have a cousin who is married to a German-American guy. they have two daughters but I dont see many white women marrying Chinese men.

Answer 1

well, there an Irish woman up the street who is married to a Chinese man. They're moving to Ireland shortly. It exists but it is not common.

Answer 2

It could be that white men like the Asian women because they are petite. Perhaps it's fear of a ballooning wife that makes so many white guys attracted to the Chinese women.

I have dated a couple of gorgeous Asian women in my time. Although they were intelligent and very attractive they were the most boring women I've ever been with. Is this just bad luck on my part, or are Asian women culturally discouraged from being outgoing and interesting?

Answer 3

I'm not sure about China in general, but I do think Asian men can be over-controlling, and sometimes cruel. Asian women sometimes marry Caucasian men because they treat them better, but Caucasian women don't marry Asian men because they don't appeal to them...?

My uncle, who is white, married an Asian women, and I remember my mom telling me that the only reason my aunt chose a white guy, was because the men from her country didn't appreciate women enough, and she wanted to find true love, not fake love. So she found that she liked white guys better.

Answer 4

it does happen, just not as much.. it could be because western culture is more appealing to eastern people rather than the other way around... When living in Beijing, Chinese men's culture seems very controlling, tense and bitter, while back in the US, men seem more relaxed and open.. Also because so many asian families are moving to north america now. I'm no expert, but I also date chinese girls, and all my friends do too, we're still trying to figure out why... anyhow, cheers!

Answer 5

I don't think it has anything to do with race. My mother in law is white and she is married to a japanese man. However I do think most asian men prefer asian women just because of the same cultures. That is kinda like asking how come a lot of white guys are not with african american women, but there are lots of white females with african american men.

Answer 6

I havent noticed that. But my husband is English and German. His paternal grandparents moved to America from England when they were children. He still has family in England. And his maternal great-grandfather was a soldier in Hitler's Nazi army. He served under Heinrich Himmler. My husband actually has a genuine Nazi uniform stashed in his mom's house somewhere. Would ours be considered an interracial marriage being that I'm a little bit of everything (German, Dutch, etc)?

Answer 7

That's a damn good question. It is rare. The stereotype is that Asian women will do anything to please their man--be it sexual, manual labor or anything else obedient.
Men love to be in control so that makes Asian women that much more desirable.
Me personally, I am a white man who only fins white women attractive so I don't understand about the Asian obsession.

Answer 8

I know of a couple who is exactly what you describe. She is Caucasian and he is Asian.

Althought it is not as prevalent as the Caucasian male/Asian female pairing, there are many examples that I am personally aware of.

Answer 9

I really do not know if this is true but I heard Asian men are not very well endowed.I have seen white women married to Laotian,Thai,and Cambodian men.I have never seen a white woman married to a Chinese man though.

Answer 10

hmmm,,, good question. I know of a French-Swiss married to a Chinese woman, thou he is white. I think it is the look or culture.
