HUFFINGTON POST - June 8 - According to a survey of racial exclusion patterns in Internet dating, the most excluded categories are Asian men and black women. American women would rather opt for black men than Asian males (including East Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi. At the outset, Asian men are far fewer in numbers than black or Latino men, which restricts their exposure, availability and access to white women. They are also culturally alien to white women in a way that black or Latino men are not. It is also interesting that the reasons why Asian women are sought after by white men who care to date or marry outside their racial confines, are conversely the reasons why Asian men are probably excluded from white female preferences. Several studies found white men prefer Asian women because they are seen as "homely" -- obedient and faithful -- as compared to Asian men, who are possibly unappealing because of their reputation for being domineering, hierarchical and illiberal. Unlike Asian women, Asian men tend to be much more authoritarian, conservative, religious and profess fealty toward their cultural values that are often incompatible with Western mores.
Hugely controversial, but the proof is in the numbers. Patterns of attraction on internet dating sites also show that singles that have never been married, steer clear of divorcees. Also, people who don't smoke, steer clear of people who do.
