I'm 3/4 Asian, 1/4 Caucasian female and have only dated non-Asians. I've been attracted to whites and blacks, never Asians unless they were mixed with another race.
I can understand that Asian men are portrayed negatively in the media, and that they are bitter, but do they truly look down on interracial relationships? When they see an Asian girl with a non-Asian, what do they think?
(I've had some say it's "funny" that I like non-Asians, etc or call me other names for being the way that I am. This has made me prejudiced against Asians because I feel that they think I should only "stick to my own.")

By bitter, I mean "do they really despise mixed relationships?"

Some are bitter, others could care less. I believe that the sqeaky wheel gets the grease. You may prefer caucasian men, that fine with me. But I think the few lonely asian guy's that can't get a date, may be redirecting their frustration to you. They can't get a date and they see, errr... for lack of a better word, "one of their own kind" (sorry) dating a "white guy". It brings their frustration to the surface and they spout out their anger towards you. (Yes it's not right, but not all us asian guy's feel that way... the ones that don't mind will probably not stop you on the street to say hi, or give you a wink.... here is my wink ;)
I have a sister that only dates white guy's... It never bothered me. I got along with most of her boy friends... I can only think of one that was a real jerk. (Buy hey thats my sister... I have to take sides, what kind of brother would I be if I didn't.)
Don't let the other people get to you. You have your own life to live and they have there's... No one can stop all the people in this world from being rude. You can't pick the color of your skin or who your parents are, but you can pick your friends and you can pick the people who you associate with.
(The only point that I may disagree with you is a little disappointment in you turning your back on your asian heritage. I feel that you can have it all be an individual, embrace you western culture and your eastern. Its all part of what makes you an individual.) Take care and good luck.

I think we look down on Asian girl/White guy relationship because it doesn't seem to go both ways. We wouldn't have as much an issue of it if white women were willing to date us.
Why are you not attracted to Asians?

I answered the same type of question earlier on this forum: No, I'm not bitter.
But let me guess something: You set up this question to draw in a couple of unwitting dupes (like the ones above) to say something that would reinforce your so-called "prejudice against Asians", right? Because from one of your previous answers, you already knew the answers of some from your own experience.
(Pssst, white guys: You have to watch out for this type of manipulation. They'll use it to put the blame for something on you. ;)))
And saying that now you like black guys, I don't think readers should take that for face value.

First off, the term "Asians" is too broad and encompasses so many cultures.
If you'd study a bit, travel some, and meet people from different cultures and areas, they you would be better able to eliminate some of your blind prejudices.
It's definitely OK to have a type that you like, but it is beneficial to yourself to try to understand why you like a certain type and dislike another type.

A recent survey of cannibals said that Asian men are no more bitter than those of any other ethnic group.

Being prejudice against someone because of race...
You are..They are...Seems to be working out for
all of you. Live and let live.....No labels needed
Maybe when you meet the right personality for you...
You will be able to accept him regardless of race.

Don't know for sure, why don't you survey EVERY Asian guy? That's the only way to know for sure.

I've never been bitten by a asian man, so i'd say "no they aren't bitters."
