Ok, so I happen to be more attracted to dark haired, dark skinned people than other types. I have a weak spot in my heart for light brown skin and black hair and almond eyes. Some would think it's an asian fetish, as if it were something dirty or perverse. But physical attractions vary alot between people. The next best example is blonde with blue eyes. Some people are especially attracted to that. It's a physical trait, just like any other. What is wrong with being attracted to a certain physical trait? In the end, personality is what makes the deciding factor for keeping a relationship. Otherwise, he/she "is hot" is a reason for a shallow and generally short relationship. Either way, why is there a bad connotation for white people being attracted to asians? Is it just me or is there sometimes something seen as perverted or sick about that? On the flipside is there something bad about asians being attracted to white people or blonde hair, etc? why one and not the other? Why any of them if physical traits are acceptable as a reason for attraction?
Same goes for cultural traits. If you have experienced any cultures outside of your own local 20 to 2000 mile radius, you've probably realized that there are many different sets of values and traditions for various groups of people. Of course there are good and bad traits to any culture. I won't go too much into this except regarding traditional asian culture, which much stems from confucianism, respect, family and education tends to be regarded very high. In regards to the common connotation that women respect their men, subservient, etc goes, I don't care for it except for the respect part. I am a quiet respectful type of guy and I like a mutual want to please in my relationships. I am very turned off by competitive natures except to one's self.
I could fall in love with a girl from anywhere in the world if she had the qualities I look for mentally. My attractions, culturally, just happen to fall with something that is in line with certain asian cultures, and my particular physical attraction goes for physical traits which generally belong to asians (could also go for native american, eskimo, etc which all originate from one fork of homosapiens). So is something wrong with that? I don't think so. And if anyone does and is attracted to anything of any sort, then they are hypocrites.
