I personally have some East Indian female and male friends but I would never date/sleep with an East Indian man. I don't agree with the way they treat or show a non-respect for women ALL WOMEN. I am not saying that there are not some good ones out there but I don't agree with their culture at all! LOVE their food though I find that a lot of them marry their East Indian bride and cheat with the younger white women..that is wrong to me!! Sorry if I have offended anyone, just an opinion and something I have learned through my own personal experience".

A perfect example of stereotyping. Something that minorities have had to put up with for decades. The indian men who act like you just described are often traditional, older, and not even from here. These types of men are VERY easy to spot. However Indian men who have had a western upbringing (like myself for example) do not behave like this. Every culture has its bad points and stupid rules and you can choose whether or not you wish to follow them. Indian culture is no exception. Also I might add East Indians aren't the only ones who disrespect women. And whites and blacks cheat on their wives just as much as Indians do if not more. I understand what you are saying but please do not stereotype us. They're plenty of decent east indian men out there who are trying to break this stereotype.. just give us a chance.

I always said I would never date an Indian man, for many reasons - physical attraction probably being the biggest. Then I laid my eyes on my now boyfriend - He is the most beautiful person I have ever met.

I suppose every ethnicity has their attractive and not so attractive people.

decent_one, I think it goes a little father than looks. Guys get this mental picture of how sweet, kind, caring, loving, ect. east indian women are and they think how great they would be to have as girlfriend because they know she will take care of him since that's the culture over there (the women take care of the guys in thier lives). Some of us guys also think that they know how to seen and not heard since that is also thier culture in India. A lot of us think about how over there how the guys have many wives which is kinda a fantasy a lot of guys have. These guys are ussually the ones who are never happy with what they have and always get what they want without trying too hard (and always get 3rd,4th, and 5th changes). They have always been set to a lower standard than everybody else, so these guys ussually don't know how to apreciate ANYTHING. When I think of the attractiveness of East Indian women I think of how sweet, loving, caring, kind, ect. they are. I also think of how much of true ladies they are. They know that it's ok to speak your mind, but there is also a way in doing so that it sometimes takes a brain to understand what they are saying because they do it so nicely. Which is pretty cute and funny.

I do think that people generally find certain races more attractive than others. For example, I am East Indian but I generally am not attracted to East Indian men mainly because the majority of the ones I meet are shorter than me :( But it is also true that every race has exceptionally beautiful people and also unattractive people. However, I have noticed that Caucasian men are hesitant in dating East Indian women, but Caucasian women are very willing to date EI men??

I may be generalizing here, but I do think that EI culture is more conservative than North American culture and perhaps the differences in values could come in the way of a relationship between an EI person and someone of a different race. Of course, the success of a relationship also depends on each person's personal values.

P.S. In addition to Aishwarya Rai from Bollywood, there are others such as Sonali Bendre, Bipasha Basu, Celina Jaitley, John Abraham, Arjun Rampal

Okay, maybe not shorter, but around my height or a couple inches taller. I think most girls generally like a difference in height of at least 3 or 4 inches. That's not to say that I would not go for a man who is my height, I am just more attracted to taller men.

As long as they are attrative that is all that matters. I don't care what race a person is, its only skin deep, what matters is what's on the inside

Fair enough, but still it shouldn't be that hard to find a EI guy who's in the 5'10-5'11'' range if that's what you prefer I see plenty of them from my experience I never thought EI guys were short (alright maybe I'm the exception at 5'7'' but when your mother is only 4'11'' what do you expect with genes like that LOL)

Lol. You are not the exception, trust me. I am not sure, but I think the average height for an EI woman is 5'2 and around 5'8 or 5'9 for an EI man. So I am average height compared to white girls, who are generally around my height, but I am considered tall compared to the average EI woman. I also somehow attract shorter men, I don't know why...it must just be my bad luck. On the other hand, there have been a few EI men that I met and liked who were 6'3! Now I just have to find someone in between...maybe around 6 ft or 6'1, which would be ideal!

This is for Ash.

Its not true that all Indian men are around 5ft 9 .You forget that Punjabi men are tall and well built.They are as tall if not taller than European men .Man for man they definatly are taller than Latin European men so the short men that you are talking about are non Punjabi Indian men.
I have uncles/cousins who never ever lived anywhere but India (Punjab)and they had 100% vegetarian diet and they are 6ft 3 or 4 and broad and bulky with it . So I am from a tall family but we do not have a big thing about it.

The other thing I would like to say in defence of Indian Punjabis is that its not true either that Indian men mistreat their women folk. Coming from an extremely loving family and seeing the same around me-that accusation is so false as to be an insult.I don't think I can ever meet a man who could match my dad,my brother or my uncles and cousins in how nice they are to us girls in the family.I have never heard a voice raised in anger or been refused anything . I was first in the family merely because i am a girl.Same thing applied to my girl cousins and my aunties.It makes you respond with the same kind of respect .
My dad would never have board off me while i lived at home even though I was working.Its like-I am still his child and I lived in his house and he will look after me.If anything its spoilt me and he was born in Punjab India,was educated there and everything so its not a western trait he has.Not at all . Any time of the day or night I can call on my dad and he will be there for me.Anywhere in the world.

In defence of white men-I can say that Indians do recognise that you can get a really decent white guy-not because he is white but because he may have all the qualities that Indians like such as looks,consideration,kindness,ipersonal/family/moral values etc etc
My cousin has just married an English guy.There was wariness on our familys part but they got over it on thinking that if we were looking-thats what we would look for too but he happens to be English.There is no mad scramble to marry outsiders by Indians because they happen to think that Indians or Punjabis are goodlooking too but on the other hand-I do see it more and more.There must be 6 cases of this combination in my workplace alone.
My mom's 3 cousins married English guys a good 20 years ago and still married .

Indians have it made imo. Really anyone with darker skin has it made. Well lets face it after 9/11 however I am sure there are lots of reservations nowadays but all and all I still think its ok for them even. What I have found about Indian men however is that they are VERY VERY VERY controlling.
Indian and asians are so desired because ther are not a lot around in most places. I know myself I just like em all but prefer Indian/Asian

Attractive: Some are.

However, I wouldn't date one. I've met a few (not as dates), and when they're speaking English, I can't understand them. Their accents require a translator! [Sorry, but such is my opnion.]

That's usually if they're not from here and don't know the language very well However they're tons of Indians who probably speak better english then you do. Afterall, India use to be a British colony.

Who said I am looking for a John Abraham or Arjun Rampal type (would be nice though ;) )...just because I said I am attracted to tall men??? I don't even know how tall they are. People really seem to be on the defensive here. Maybe you do not care about height on women, but I am sure there are physical attributes on women that apeal to you generally. Some men may say they are attracted to women with baby faces, or some men are not attracted to heavy women...in the same way, I am attracted to men a bit taller than me. If that is called having high standards, so be it.

And for dil_dil_se, I did not say that 'all' EI men were 5'9 in height. I said that I think the average height for an EI man is around 5'8 or 5'9. Of course, I could be wrong. I know that Punjabi men are often taller and built. I did not specifically refer to Punjabi men at all. I was not talking about non Punjabi EI men in my comment....I was talking about the average height for an EI man. There are always exceptions though as I stated...I am sure short Punjabi men do exist.

I am in no way trying to insult EI men, afterall, they are part of my own race :)
