Better luck with certain ethnicities

Post Reply New Topic

I find it's much easier (for me) to talk to native americans and asians and middle easterners than most other races. It sounds ridiculous, but after experiencing this time and again for 9 years, I think it's more than a coincidence. Do you find this true for you at all?

I have a strong affinity for Russians/Ukrainians - no idea why, but I'm much more comfortable with them than Americans of any ethnicity.

I don't think I've met any, but the Bosnian/serbian accent reminds me of Russian, and I adore Serbian girls. Haven't had any luck with them as far as dating, but I'd go for one any day.

Actually I knew two American girls who were Ukrainian by ancestry, but that's not what you're getting at.

Based off of personal experience, I would agree with you.

Culture is more of a factor then ethnicity from my perspective.

I appear to have more appeal from people outside of my culture then I do from peers in the culture I grew up in.

I certainly seem to fit in well with Asians. Several of my friends are Asian and I seem to think more like them than I do my fellow Caucasians (in terms of work ethic etc.). Which is good, because I find Asian guys very attractive.

Language barrier.

If she has trouble with the language and I have trouble with the language..


that means no small talk.

In the long run, it doesn't work out though.

I find it easier to talk to middle easterners because they don't expect eye contact. Beyond that, no.

I had a good time with Europeans, with the exception of England. There's some really fun people to party with over there. They want to know you, conversation is easy, and it's a lot of fun. I had a good time in Europe, except for England. My impression of England is that they'll spit on you just as soon as look at you. I've met British people here in the US who aren't at all like that so I don't get why they were all so rude in London.

But nothing boots my operating system like a man with a US Southern accent. I love that. I don't know why since there's so many negative associations with that accent, the least of which being ignorance, but I love hearing it, especially when it's a little gravely. Really gets me going. I could listen to Bill Clinton all dang day. lol

Ive had relationships with women from different cultures and find that it does help to some degree. There is an overall alien quality to the relationship that helps to mask symptoms. They don't know what to expect on some levels, so being slightly off is more difficult to detect. At least I thought so.

Of course it's really just extending the courtship. They'll notice some things at some point.

i find it disrespectful to my family to marry outside of my race.

if your kids or grandkids don't look anything like your great grandparents or grandparents,

then that's genocide in my opinion.

it's in my opinion that tradition and heritage matter, even in America.

i couldn't fathom having grandchildren that look so different from my grandparents and other relatives. it is disrepect for your lineage in the highest degree.

i think i agree.. and me too, i don't fit too well in a big majority of people from my culture, even neurological condition..
i'm an asian NT.. NT's usually bores me or puts me off, and i really like aspies.. and lately culturally i seem appeal to some people from new york or americans from the east coast more than west, some hispanics, some french and some koreans better than my own, and they kinda appeal to me too.. maybe its the vast difference and the learning that it entails which interests me.. i dunno about them though..

oh and i actually seem to appeal to hoodlums and some thugs too since i was young.. and older proper people.. i just dunno whats up with that..

I agree.

The weird thing is though if i put all my ex's in a line up, they would be mistaken for brothers. I once went out with a guy and we got asked if we were twins.

When i was younger i came up with the idea that homo-sapians are like dogs. Lots of different breeds. I told my teacher my thoughts and i got suspended for racism.

I am a middle eastern and I live among them.

Your statement is false.

I honestly have no preferences. One of my special interests is language and culture norms. I'm fascinated with differences in daily life, what is taken for granted, all over the world. But I'm just as into differences in rural vs city life. I love to hear what people take for granted where they live. I've never been able to understand 'prejudice' in the logical sense. I have a strong aversion to hearing other people's opinions in general of anywhere they have not lived or a ethnicity different from their own. Even if they lived in a place for a long time but were not in the same ethnic group there is a natural separation that has kept them from 'knowing' the other's experience. Even within each group it filters down to the personal level, the inevitable one to one experience of every human being. We all come from a mother and a father and we are all genetically and environmentally shaped to adulthood. I am as confused with an opinion of 'middle Eastern' as I am of 'American'. Neither of these are even definitions of anything....location?????????????

So the point of this is accent and appearance? wow
