Koreans are still stuck in traditions.
Something im not happy about, yet have to live by.

I'm Korean (not upper class but I guess upper middle class) and my parents were the opposite. They didn't hammer me on education neither and said we will support you no matter what you choose to do in life.

your parents should've adopted me.

my korean parents had high expectations for my younger brother and i. we played a lot of sports, took a lot of music lessons (yes i'm deaf and parents forced it) and after school classes paid by parents. i even attended saturday classes and summer schools. it was awful.

education was parents' favorite. brother and i graduated high school with mid 3.0 gpa (3.3 for him and 3.4 for me.) parents went insane when we got B's, sigh.

so much thing to took over my childhood life but i love my parents because hell bent loose when we went to college. i come from middle class family (upper class if you don't count middle class...)

i don't like when parents spoil us. they bought us cars and they expect something better in return. :/

Yeah, some of my friends had parents where they would get in trouble if they got a B on their report cards.

when i was senior in high school, i got a C in physics in the fall semester. mom went really crazy and called school to send a tutor for me. i ended up getting an A in the spring.

My korean fiancee went through the same thing, as did her sister and brother. I know how tough her parents were on her and her siblings, but I think parents should be very tough on their children when it comes to school. As tough as they were on her, they raised her very well. She finished her B.S. and M.S. in 5 years and she has a great career. She's also probably the most reliable and responsible person I know. Her parents did a great job, and I don't think she would have been this way if they took a more casual approach to her education.

We plan on raising our children the same way.

were they academically abused?

what is "academically abused"?

 

[Juno]

putting too much education on your mind?

i had good grades (3.44gpa in high school) but extra education was just too much for me because i also was involved in after school activities (key club, habitat for humanity, academic bowl...etc.)

I dont think that's abuse. That's parents raising their children the right way IMO

So I say MORE POWER TO YOU WHITE GUYS who can't tell the difference

lol

Glad I'm not the only one who's noticed this. I'd say the 'best' looking ones I'ev seen are usually with the asian gangsta types.

aka the materialistic tramp type. everyone with taste knows the best looking ones are the cute school girls.

just kidding.

Edit: Share your stories!

Does this mean you think white women are more desirable than Asian women?

Duh

I dated an asian guy for a couple years in college and my family liked him much more than any of the crackers that I went out with (prior to dating my spouse.)

Aha! This possibly explains why we asian men have found you strangely attractive. I thought maybe it was your sense of humor as typified by your thread about your mother-in-law's bad breath one particular day. But now we know the truth -- somehow we detected you were receptive to asian men in the past and this made you become attractive to us. If only we could qualify and quantify the traits and characteristics that made us subconsciously aware of this so we can detect this on a conscious level with the women we meet in real life.

yeah definitely noticed that too. I feel like for some reason non-asian guys view asian girls differently, and have slightly differing standards in terms of beauty. Not necessarily different, but overlapping, I guess.

Definitely different standards. Most white guys think Lucy Liu is attractive, but I've heard Asian guys think she's ugly.

Freckles are usually considered cute in western society, but a blemish in eastern societies. Overweight is considered unattractive in the west, but a sign of success in the east. Same with crooked teeth, in the west we usually have them straightened while in Japan they think they're cute.

So an overweight girl with crooked teeth may be attractive to many asian guys, a very thin girl with freckles like Lucy Liu may be considered ugly to them.

Maybe in Japan? I don't believe being overweight and having crooked teeth makes you attractive in China.

Hummm.... look it up on the thread about post a pic of your gf..my gf is white and I am Asian. There are a bunch of Asian guys with white gfs or wives on ATOT and in real life.

How old are you?

 

[alkemyst]

my family loves her. My previously high maintenance, high drama barbie dolls may be a good reason.

I miss the excitement my exes gave, but at the same time I like knowing my money and shit will be home when I get there too.

 

[alkemyst]

I want to add though that it drives me insane when most talk about how asian women are the end all be all. Mostly they think this because they believe they are so innocent and stupid.

Most asian women I have dated and just hung out with while being extremely conservative in manner, tend to be very direct and not take crap when needed.

WTF...most may say they'd like to fuck sandra oh or cho, but none are saying they are 10's really.

Your latter choices for asian guys are equally wierd. The guys I have known that are really asian and not just claiming to be (ie their grandparents were born in the US even), like a very different style of woman. The underlying chick is just as hot, but usually more conservative/doll like.

It's just wishful fodder that asians claim all whites go for the women they'd never touch. Yet you never see them with anyone.

My cousin married a white Canadian, and is Asian.

His parents are proud grandparents. WTF is wrong with people that they care about race so much?

korean parents are hardcore.

i'm korean and i have NEVER dated any asian girls. every time i dated a white girl, parents shook heads in disbelief.

we argued for days until they finally accepted my wish. damn.

They probably wanted Korean ? children.

Sad.

Well during my college years, dayam i miss those, heh

i got hit up by a lot of white girls. More so then my white friends.

They said it was my car, but we always walked to those parties so we didnt drive drunk.


To be honest i think that top statement has more to do with russel wong when he first came out. I remember the girls couldnt stop talking about him, and it was annoying.

I agree. I am Korean and I am a gen 1.5, born in Korea and grew up here. I came here when I was 9 and it was a difficult adjustment, learning English and culture and all.

But my parents pushed me hard. Took piano and violin lessons, studied every night for 2 hours or so even when I was only 9.

They wanted a doctor out of me but they have to settle with a CPA. I didn't like how hard they pushed me but looking back, I am thankful and really appreciate it. Studying for things like CPA exam was not very difficult as I was disciplined at young age. It truly makes a difference when parents are involved in their children's education.

This is prime reason why so many Asians excel in academics and careers.

Oh and my parents are very open and liberal concerning my potential mate. They couldn't care less if she was white or not. They are even open to *gasp* Japanese girls (Koreans know what this is about).

The last 2 chicks look European. We White guys spend our whole lives seeing that. "Familiarity breeds contempt"--somebody

I die laughing at the "white guys date the bad looking ones" comment that many Asians make. What is considered good looking is personal and influenced by culture. I'm in Asia all the time and have had this conversation with my Asian friends and workmates tons of times.

In KTV places, we each tell the other which ones we find attractive. Usually different ones. Same with walkingdown the street or in other venues. I look at their "hot" wives and GF's and can't understand how come they ended up with such a bad looking partner. My taste at work.

I also decided that it is somewhat protectionism and defensiveness. Those guys get all the bad looking ones but when we cross-date, we get the good looking ones. Thump your chest and pump a little more testosterone.

The good news is that my Asian friends know my taste compared to their's and that we're not in competition.

<grin>

The unfortunate nws, is, like CPA (I'm a CA, almost the same), my wife isn't supportive of me dating Asian girls.
