Interracial Marriage on the Rise.

One big difference in recent times is that Asian men are now officially allowed to be attractive by the arbiters in the media.

Compare the non-white male stars of the original Hawaii 5-0 to the version now in production. In the past there was always some kind of qualifier attached to these characters. They couldn't just be another guy in the gang of good guys. The career opportunities for a guy like Daniel Dae Kim have changed a great deal while he is still young enough to enjoy it.

But for women it's less about attractiveness and more about stability and earning power. Women are also more likely than men to value high intelligence in a potential mate. Asian men, on average, tend to be higher earners and more intelligent.

For adult women, perhaps. For teenage girls? Please.

And all too many 'women' function as teenage girls well into their third or fourth decade. Thus the 30-something women gushing over the Twilight books.

A bit over half our species is female. A much smaller subset of those in their years of actively seeking or exploiting mates can be called adult women.

Ha! What? Shit, do you use stereotypes to justify everything?

As intelligent as you may say Asian men may be, they still make more than 25% less than that whites males on average and have less representation as you move up the management ladder. edit: It's almost as if there are other factors than being smart and having money!
 
I am Hispanic and I am at the bottom of the charts, so..... since I have no wife that means that 35k is cut in half then? So that means I'm 17.5ish I am poor. I think this is interesting to see more interracial marriages as long as they are happy together and raise their children to the best they could.

Whites make more when you look at bachelor's degrees.

It's still not the case that Asian men make over 25% less than white men. The worst statistic I've seen is 12% less among men with a bachelor's.

You're only accurate when it comes to college degrees and comparing whites and Asians. When you see that a white hs drop out makes more than everyone with a hs diploma, we have an issue. And when we have white males with hs diplomas out earning everyone with an Associates, we have an even bigger problem. The disparity becomes much more clear when you disaggregate by occupation and field.

Whatever race you are, you are way too angry. And your constant need to bring race and society into EVERYTHING is getting old.

edit: I'm so confused here. Dohdoh plays the role of the angry black militant even though he's not black. Meanwhile, spokker is a hispanic dude who plays the role of put upon white guy who thinks the government is giving too many handouts to minorities.

WTF

In any case, can we have our OT forum back? Can you idiots arguing about race move this shit over to the vs forum? It's much better over there.

As for Spokker, I assume he's an angry and sad white guy who thinks everyone else gets a leg up in society except him because of government handouts or this policy or another. ( I think I saw him actually say that asians get preferential treatment in college applications, which is entirely laughable since asians aren't even considered "minorities" when applying to a good college. ) His act is tiresome as well.

Your whining about it is growing old too. How about you just put me on ignore and save yourself the frustration. Not to mention that the OP started this thread in the OT forum. If you want to be pissed about it, be pissed at the OP.

Spokker also said that he is Hispanic like at least twice in this thread.

And are we now going to go through a debate of mean vs median?[/QUOTE]

There are pros and cons of using both. We often use the median income to paint a better picture of those incomes in the middle, as income distribution is so skewed in this country.

In this case, using the median might mask those gains made as blacks have moved into higher income brackets.

http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0104552.html

As legitimate barriers have been broken down, blacks have been making gains into those 50k and up brackets. This would skew the mean higher.

When using the median, your original claim is correct, but this doesn't say too much about the workers' academic performance, years of work experience or other qualities. A high school graduate can mean anything from a D-student to an A-student, for example. Controlling for high school GPA might erode some of the wage gap due to discrimination.

I attended a presentation on racial differences in community college transfer rates. Without any controls, blacks were 7.4 percentage points less likely to transfer from a California community college to university than whites were. Once you control for background variables, individual goals (the students are asked if they are planning to go to university), academic performance and community (I don't remember what this was exactly), the gap narrows to next to nothing. The actual number was .47, which means blacks are .47 percentage points more likely to transfer, all other things being equal. This suggests that black students that are eligible, that are qualified, are not being barred from transferring.

The same study also included Asians. Without any controls, Asians were 11.4 percentage points more likely to transfer than whites. After the controls, they were 8.9 percentage points more likely to transfer, suggesting an innate desirability of Asian students over white students. It might be discrimination or some other variable left out.

So when we look at incomes, something similar might be going on, but who knows. In this study, the average GPA for black students was 1.85 and the average for Asians was 2.55. Whites had 2.48. This suggests that even though whites do almost as good as Asian students, Asians are much more likely to transfer and be accepted to university from California junior college.

I don't understand why discussions of race use categories like "white" and "Asian", which show all of the nuance of the 50's when ostensibly measuring our distance from that era. Korean and Japanese marriage seems like it would be a huge deal, at least to the couple's extended family, but that wouldn't show up in any race-based study because everyone involved has slanted eyes and looks kind of yellow.

An Irish immigrant, an Israeli citizen, and two students from South Dakota and South Africa, respectively, become a bunch of white guys when they apply to college, except when considering citizenship. Multigenerational African-Americans have much more in common with other Americans of any color than they have had with Africans for a while now.

While I guess the data are nice, I'm not sure that white people marrying yellow or black people is supposed to be noteworthy in 2012, or that it is noteworthy in any sense once you define diversity as something other than melanin concentration.

otoh, a rising rate of marriage between hetero- and homosexuals would be undeniable progress.

most people dont know theres alot of diff races of people within the asian category and they dont care. i didnt either till i got into asian tv and dramas now i can tell the diff between the asians groups language is a good way as are last names but even then you have those diff areas with diff dialects it can get confusing but its kinda cool too.

The problem is that race is a social construct. Racism is using that social construct to determine who will benefit most, obviously the race with the most power, and who won't benefit as much or at all in a society. This is currently why ethnicity and nationality have almost nothing to do with it when it comes to determining who gets what.

It's not as simple as "wow, we have so much more diversity now that we should have a better form of categorizing people from 70 years ago!" But the simple fact of the matter is that while we might not have Jim Crow or public lynchings, which is a good thing, we really haven't moved that far away from that era. The mere basis of race as a social construct makes it difficult to move beyond crude categories when we all know it's based on color.

[quote name='diaeresis']I don't understand why discussions of race use categories like "white" and "Asian", which show all of the nuance of the 50's when ostensibly measuring our distance from that era.[/QUOTE]It just simplifies the debate when discussing race and ethnicity.

It's not a secret that "Asian" can include the highly successful Japanese cohorts as well as more recent arrivals like Cambodian refugees, and they are going to have very different experiences in the United States.

I learned something from my Asian film class too, haha.

The thing to realize, though, is that those who descended from the Cambodian refugees are going to be less Cambodian and more "American" with each generation. The traditions are going to be celebrated less intensely, the customs forgotten and the cultural rules will be relaxed on a daily basis. This will be prevalent in some families more than others. This is very prevalent in my family. You can call me Mexican, but I don't know anybody in Mexico and I don't participate in any cultural events. My grandmother and grandfather did all that traditional Catholic-Mexican stuff.

But there's still something to say about Asians in general. And if you want to get more specific you can do that. What the hell does "Latino" really mean? There's plenty of variation there too, but there's still some value in the term when discussing social issues. Again, you can get more specific if you want to. But if you're going to do that, you better make space on the graph when presenting information or it's going to get very unwieldy.

I'm married. This is the only flavor I'm getting for the rest of my life.

The fact that I said that in reference to a question about my comment about racial fetishes must have gone over your head. Not to mention that I prefaced the damn thing by basically saying that enjoying all flavors of ice cream is A-Ok. The US, amongst other European colonizers, has historically depicted women of color as wanton sex objects to be tamed and conquered while depicting men as weak, savage, and/or inhuman. This endures to this day.

Sure, everyone has preferences. The question is what influences those preferences. And it's a good thing that I didn't say bolded.

The standards of beauty we have today isn't something born in a vacuum; it's designed, manufactured, and marketed to us like any other product we consume. We might be smarter than monkeys, but we're easy as fuck to manipulate.
 
That's a guilt trip though, it's not fair to say it's wrong to have a preference. If that preference came from thousands of years of conditioning, then so it has. It's a good point and I'm sure there's tons of interesting issues that could be brought up for it. But to some guy who just so happens to like the distinct look of a particular ethnic group, well I find that completely innocent.

And not directed at anyone, but I hate how interracial couples have to have the fetish term tagged to them, as if the fact they have a sexual attraction between each other is demeaning to the relationship itself.

Oh I see you're dating latina women, you've always been into that?

Hugely offensive.

There are more than a few studies on those issues too.

It'd be nice if preference were just preference, but the way race, gender, power dynamics, class, etc. intersect with each other still manifests even without people knowing it. I'm not saying that an interracial couple can't get together if they're racially conscious, but that they would be the exception, while at the same time, still possibly reinforcing fetishism defined by that particular mix. Human relationships are very complex.

You should ask an Asian-American guy how often non-Asian guys tell them that they love Asian women or how exotic they think they are within the first five minutes of meeting them. Seriously, its a Thing.

It'd be nice if we could get some GLBT(or is it LGBT) perspective in this thread though. There's too much straight talk in here and I'm not that versed in that particular area.
 
Well, listen, I've conceded that it's an enormous and multifaceted phenomenon. You're welcome to delve deeper, but I'm not sure how many will be up for a marathon. I possess far too little knowledge on the subject to keep you entertained though, unfortunately.

If we're talking about personal preferences though, I'm never going to hold it against someone for having them. Call it a fetish, but don't do it to demean the individuals. We all pursue relationships that involve sexual attraction, it's an important aspect. Don't tell an asian guy he's got a fetish for the white girls as if it's negative behavior. As if her race is the sole reason they eventually get married.

It's like saying you wouldn't have married your spouse if she was unattractive to you beforehand. Well...no shit.

And maybe that attraction does spawn from years of stigma and stereotypes, but to the individual, it's innocent. If this thread was going in the direction of casual chit chat on what we all prefer, then that's a pretty light subject in my eyes.

Not even disagreeing with you, really, you just seem to be in a different league right now.
 
Yeah, you might date someone because of DD perceived "fetishism" but you sure as hell arent going to marry them for that reason.

That shit won't last and will likely get old quick.

Hell, you might as well say that most white girls are dating black guys just to piss off their parents. There's no relationship or love there, right?

White guys are just with those asian girls becaues they're anime and JRPG freaks.

Oh, please..
 
My friend (knew him since I was 5) is into anime and married a Japanese woman he tutored while going to college in Japan.

Three of my cousins are married or engaged to Hispanic people (1x honduran, 1x puerto rican and 1x ecuadorian).

My grandfather was Irish and married an Italian woman back when that was considered a big deal.

People get married and divorced for all sorts of shitty reasons, including fetishes. Mail-order brides are a huge business. What's your point?
 
can we all agree that everyone here probably would like to bang a chick ( or for the ladies a guy....and possibly a chick ) of a particular race or ethnicity because you find them hot or youre curious about them ? me personally ive always wanted to bang a native american chick and after that a korean chick. nothing wrong with being curious but yeah i wouldnt base a relationshp on that.

btw if the word bang seems to crass please edit it in your mind to make love to or padoodle.
 
So, there is a big rise in white mens fetishization of Asian women... A Korean girl I was dating told me most white men who approached her and had this fetish thing. She could clearly tell who was interested in HER as opposed to interested in the Asian fantasy.
 
What's so great about asian girls? Too tiny and no curves for my taste.

And anywa,y Mail order brides is NOT a huge business. Yeah, I see ads for that all the time. :rolls eyes:

And, as the study pointed out most interracial marriages are to native citizens, not foreign born.

yellow fever.

funny...part of the reason why korean men are marrying non korean women is because in korea, most korean women will not marry men in rural areas. the % rate has gone up every year since the pattern was first noticed a few years ago.

a lot of modern westernized asian girls believe they are the "new" white and don't even consider dating asian men period. I have nothing against dating behavior it's just very interesting when it happens and for what reasons vs just the "oh I just prefer." It's deeper than that...I'm certain and from experience.

That's just individual taste. I like thin, petite girls with dark hair, as I noted earlier.

I don't have any particular attraction to Asian's per se, other than a decent chunk of them fit that body type relative to other races. But there are hot skinny girls of every race, so I have no real racial preference.

I'm just a skinny guy myself so I've never been drawn to curvy women.

And right now Korean men do have Japanese woman on a pretty high pedestal, for whatever reason. Maybe exotic immediately links to more interesting? american woman loving foreign accents and so forth. Perhaps minorities just naturally draw more attention by looking distinctly different from the majority. People love talking about what makes up their "blood" -- "I'm 75% Polish and 8% Moroccan and 2% this and 1% that and blah blah blah." It's the most fascinating thing to some people.

Tons of other factors, as well those dependent on the individual, are surely part of the equation too.
