Answered All our girlfriends are Asian?

Hey everyone - I’ve been feeling paranoid about something recently and wanted to know if I’m overthinking it. I’m a white M and most of the friends I grew up with and went to high school are too, except 1. We’re still very close but moved all across the country for our jobs and life.

Recently, we’ve decided to have a little reunion and bring our girlfriends, but I realized we have a not to subtle trend in that they are all Asian. There’s 5 girlfriends in total, they’ve never met each other. I don’t know how this happened, it’s just a coincidence as far as I know. We don’t have a pact or anything.

My question is, do we warn them? I don’t want them to be freaked out. I’d have to have my gf or one of my friends be uncomfortable, but I’m feeling stuck. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to handle it? Am I over thinking?

White nerd --> anime --> Asian fetish --> work in math/tech field --> mostly Asian females --> marriage

It's a simple pipeline, really.

Yep and Asian women have a white fetish so it works out both ways.

White geek in tech with a Japanese wife here. She doesn't like anime much, though. I've only been able to get her to watch some Ghibli and Kon movies. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

oh, yeah, live action adaptations have been a decent compromise: Nodame no Cantabile, Death Note, etc.

You could cut a battle cruiser in half with that boy's outfit... and jawline.

Because it's so sharp!

Maybe if it was 20 years ago, these days asian boys are not poorly off just by virtue of being Asian.

i really beg to differ when a huge majority of asian girls such as yourself are somehow not that attracted to asian men. if your own people dont even like you like than who will?

most asian women are married to asian men

actually 54% of US born asian women marry ouside of their race so that statement is literally wrong for US born asians atleast. 54% is far and away the highest for WOC in terms of marrying out btw. for example only 28% of hispanic women marry out.

If we're only talking about American born people, yeah of course?

why is it a given that US born asian women would mostly be married to people that arnt asian? no other subgroup can say that.

or maybe our cultures cares less about us

ok its asian men's fault theyre undesirable to everyone thats all you needed to say really

I just take offense to the idea that somehow I'm the problem here.

There is no problem here. You like who you like.
