25 women I have dated (or yet) in my lifetime

Ha, saw this list from Alvin Woon. Thought I’d borrow the list.

1. the hippie
2. the Alabama girl
3. the funny one
4. the goddess of sex (well, I wouldn’t call her a goddess but she was a freak.)
5. the devoted kind
6. the teary angel
7. the confused bisexual
8. the honest and humble
9. the suicidal depressive (I hope I’ll never get to date such a girl.)
10. the hot but doesnt know she is hot type(or pretend to be) (yeah, she was sizzling hot but a rich spoiled bitch anyway.)
11. the heartbreaker (ha, I’ll never forget her. Invited me as her prom date and later that night, she went out with another guy and made out with him in some friend’s house while I slept in the backseat of a friend’s car. Yes, I was a pathetic big-time loser back then. Our friendship was royally damaged and never recovered. Made me wish I never had gone, not because of what happened but our friendship was lost.)
12. the novelist (she would even circle my grammar-prone in our letter exchanges.)
13. the Rachel Mcadams look alike (I don’t even know what a Rachel Mcadam is supposed to look like.)
14. the shy girl
15. the sweet one
16. the romantic
17. the rich bitch (and she was really a bitch.)
18. the drum-playing girl
19. the gothical tomboy (she was kinda the half of that, wore a pair of black Doc Martens boots all the time, neurotic and couldn’t run a mile.)
20. the disc-spinning VJ
21. the environmentalist
22. the geek girl. (we were same majors but man, it was boring.)
23. the innocent apple-faced type (boy, was she really innocent…)
24. the mommy girl> (well not really but she was very studious, carried a 4.0 gpa throughout college and would be only student I know and (dated) who received the highest award possible, the Outstanding Undergraduate Scholarship Award. Not to mention, she knew more beers than I did and the difference between ales and lagers. She was probably overmatched for me.
25. the next door girl

The marginalization of Asian men

Asian Women: Up For Grabs

Fell upon this article. This girl says it all! She observed why Asian men aren’t particularly attractive to other races except their own kind. Here’s some excerpts:

“First, the media never portrays Asian men in a dominant role. They are always portrayed as nerdy, geeky, brainiacs, with no sense of themselves and no ability to attract women. In other words, the media portrays Asian men as incapable and undesirable.”

“Second, American society has many negative stereotypes towards Asian men. It has become a complete joke to think that an Asian man could ever “satisfy” a woman. Their “manlihood” is the constant subject of jokes and insults. For this reason, most women view Asian men as asexual and feminine.”

“For these reasons, Asian women, and women in general in American society are taught to view Asian men as undesirable and feeble. As you will see, this is the reason why Asian women are now up for grabs…”

“So what is the end result of all this? Asian women are “up for grabs” and this has essentially devasted Asian men. Asian men are getting the axe on two levels here. First, they are only seen as being able to date their own kind (other Asian girls). At the same time, their own kind, at an increasing rate, tends not to prefer them sexually.”

I’m probably the perfect victim of this. At my deaf school, all the way from kindergarten to 12th grade, I was pretty much the only Asian in my class every year and was known as a “school freak” although I felt I didn’t study that much. Moreover, I never had a single girlfriend myself and the fact there was a total of only 150 students in the entire high school didn’t help much and not to mention, half of them were mentally-challenged or had multiple disabilities. However, my experience in college has gotten better—I guess because it’s more diverse and students were more open-minded.

Last week, I watched a Gallaudet football game and there were cheerleaders rooting for the team. They had 3 male cheerleaders and guess what? not even one male was a white. Two Asians (one was obviously a Korean but the other one, not sure, looked like a thai to me) and one Hispanic. They were a perfect example of what Asian males are portayed: asexual and feminine. And what of the varsity football team? not even one Asian on the team! Even Yao Ming, currently the tallest player in the NBA, is perceived as a soft, weak center.

I couldn’t agree more with the last paragraph. My Asian roommate (half Japanese and Chinese) is dating a white girl—he has never dated an Asian before and doesn’t plan to. My good friend (Korean) is attracted to Puetro Ricans or Hispanics (basically looking for Jessica Alba lookalikes), although he’s now curious about dating a Korean girl because he’s getting tired of getting pushed by girls in the past. There’s another friend (Chinese) who has a baby with a PR girl too. I think one major reason why Asian men don’t want to date their own kind is that they would be perceived as too Asian or dating a white girl would help them to look more American. Look no further than Tiger Woods who’s a half Asian and Africian-American. He got married to a white model girl.

Clearly, Asian women are up for grabs.

Battle of the Sexes

This is quite funny. No wonder we have a battle of the sexes going on infinitely.

Nine out of Ten Would be Adequate

Researchers at Alabama’s Auburn University say they have determined what men want in the “ideal woman”: she is sexually inexperienced but likes sex, has a career but is a full-time homemaker, has a slim build, is athletic, and has pretty eyes, dark hair, good complexion and a firm butt. Large breasts are nice, but not all that important. The study’s lead author, Erica Gannon, says the specifications are similar to what is found in the Bible. “Our participants, whether knowingly or unknowingly, espouse a view of the ideal woman that is very similar to the views held by individuals thousands of years ago.” However, she adds, “It’s hard to be this woman.” (UPI) …About as hard as being the ideal man: strong yet gentle, powerful yet sensitive, has a great career yet helps clean the house and raise the children, in control yet cries, and a sex expert who’s only been with one woman.
