WHAT YOU SAY

Hey, "pissed off":
You sound like a young gun, probably too young for me. Don't give up! Definitely keep trying. I wish more AM would flirt with me. However, don't flirt with a BF just because they are black. I can't tell you how many of my friends hate feeling like "just a color" in a "color game". Who wants to be dated just because they are Black? Would you like to be dated just because you are Asian? Try to get to know some of them and I am sure that you will find that they would like to date you as well. . . that is, if you are compatible. Too bad, you probably do not live near me or I would check out your restaurant. :?)

Pissed Off,
It has nothing to do with your job, believe me. But, they probably feel that you're not really interested. I think both Asian males and Black females who flirt with one another, most likely would be willing to date. But both individuals probably think it's a joke or nothing serious to the other person. No one wants to be embarrassed. Why don't you try asking for a number? A lot of girls still like guys to make the first move.

pissed off, I think alot of women in america are materialistic, not just black women, so yes when they see you waiting tables, they are less likely to give you their number. I just have one question, do you only approach black women in the restaurant? Why don't you try approaching some on the street or elsewhere. If you want to attract a black woman you have to do the right things like dress nicely and look great, since physical attraction is what draws people in.

Pissed Off...
That's really sad to hear. However, I think it's just the girls you are approaching. There are plenty of black females that like Asian men. How is your approach?? That may have something to do w/it. I am a mixed female and I date as many Asian men as I do black, white and latin. It may also have something to do w/the area you are in. What city are you in that you are having this problem approaching black women??

I am so tired of people bringing up the movie,"Romeo Must Die". That movie was still not really a very big example of AM/BW relationship. It doesn't show the two passionately getting with each other. It doesn't show him asking her for a comittment and it doesn't show them getting together to marry. Those types of things will probably never be in the media. The closest thing that may happen with that is Porn. They may show the AM and BW in porn or something. Thats about it. I just don't think media sees us as couple material.

Theravada Rel,
It's interesting that you brought up the movie "Romeo Must Die". I guess, as far as anyone could remember, this is the only major Hollywood motion picture that featured an Asian man and Black woman as a romantic pair. Plus the fact that it was a box office hit proves that there is a market for these type of story concept. Why were there no follow up to this trend?
I think media, in particular Hollywood in this day and age, is still conservative and a bit wary to portray such pairings on the silver screen. I can just imagine how the producers of the movie have to fight to have "Romeo..." green-lighted by the studios.
Movies and other forms of mass media have a way in influencing society's thinking and with the constant negative portrayal of Asian men and Black women, society has developed their own stereotypes for both.
You're right AM and BW have a lot of things in common. The more that we should fight for each others interest.

I think there are alot of black girls out there who just don't give us a chance. I work at a resteraunt. I think alot of black girls like chinese food, I think thats cool. Sometimes I see some cute black girls and I try to approach them. I will specifically try to wait at their table to get a better look. They play it off like they are interested with casual little smiles. But they never give me their phone number. They probably think I have a bad job or something. My family and I own that resteraunt, and 5 others in this city. So I am comfortable financially. What is the deal with black girls? Do I have to brag to get them? I just don't see it. If they can't talk to me regardless, then I don't see the point.

I don't think my mom expected me to get involved with a vietnamese man. She didn't really have a problem when I was dating cuban and puerto rican men. Now its like she doesn't even want to meet him. It makes me feel sad. I wish she would realize how much of a wonderful person he is. Shes really missing out. I told her about him proposing to me, she acted like she was going to throw a fit. Its my life!

I am attracted to BW. I can't say that I am attracted to all of them. I guess its the very refined and classy ladies. They remind me of this:
You make me dream of distant tropic climes,
Luxurious vegetation, nights serene
By burning passion made by tempestuous,
The witching scent of rare exotic
languorous
Of soft music and weird, whose savage rhythym
Compels each fibre of the frame to dance.............
