it's funny that i mention indians? indians in the US are generally successful do you agree?

[/ QUOTE ]No, I do not agree. Also you don't see any prominent Indians in our culture so it is a completely invalid point.

also, now you are talking about india itself, which i think operates under some caste system, no? how does that show that the same correlation exists in every culture? your arguments are becoming borderline stupid.

[/ QUOTE ]Yes, they have a caste system and generally you can only marry into a higher caste if you look like someone from a higher caste. Quit being an idiot.

He's not calling you racist, he's saying that a whole variety of constrictive and constructive social values inform the highly malleable, historically bounded notion of attractiveness. Grey is guilty of over-simplifying a complex situation, but the germ of his comments is spot-on. You do not simply "decide," in a vacuum, what is or is not "hot."

I mean, how many people find Jewish chicks attractive?

[/ QUOTE ]Jewish girls look just like white girls, who are deemed "most attractive" by Americans. I'm mostly semitic myself- but you could never tell by looking at me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not entirely true. Some people look ethnically Jewish. David Schwimmer and Walter Matthau for example. You can tell they're Jewish.

But people can't tell that I am Jewish from looking at me.

I think your post was meant for Daryn but it makes good points.
I decide on individual cases, not by race.

But as I said above, it is not racist to prefer girls from some races over girls from other races.

No one is calling you a racist. We all do it. For me the paler the skin the better, and the smaller the better.

Also, daryn, Lucy Liu, Lisa Ling, hot Asian news reporters, you have seen none of this?

daryn 04-09-2005 04:55 PM

Re: Asian guys and white girls
 
lisa ling i find unattractive. oh wait, she is successful and has a lot of money.

NEVERMIND I LUV HER "LOL"



also, a successful hot asian reporter is not hot because she is successful. she is successful because she is hot.

Tia Carrere is hot.

She's Asian right? Hawaiians are Asian I think.
