I thought we were living in a democracy - Ooooops, I must have been mistaken ... we must all be residing in an authoritarian state then ... lol.
Democracy as a word is loosing its meaning. But that's a total separate discussion. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/6/2008 7:35:22 AM | wow this thread has really gotten some response, though I haven't read all 11 pages.....I know my take on it is this.....I was just raised in a small town that was predominantly white. So I have always found myself attracted to white men. And then of course it has to do with the stereo type of how they treat their women, though I know they don't all do this. In my head I would be the one that would find the one Indian guy that would treat me like that. Not to mention their families, which have very strong beliefs (that they are entitled to ) but one of them happens to be not accepting a white woman like me with open arms. As they totally encourage same race relationships.
But I have noticed that since I have been here I seem to get quite a few messages from Indian men. It is a preference for me not to date them, not a racist thing at all. Cause I have met some nice Indian people for sure. | |

This thread/forum isn't a personal little spot online. Let's stay on topic shall we and I believe the topic is "Caucasian Women + Indian Guys".
Hmmm once again I'm not sure I follow you. I was posting about how it's unfair to talk about Sikhs as if they are unwelcoming to white people. This was a response to an earlier post. I don't think commenting on earlier posts is inappropriate. I only posted the name flounder so others would know how who I was quoting. Ok I think we've both had enough of each other... so let's just agree to disagree here. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/6/2008 8:45:40 PM | Hmm just in case the OP is still reading this (I doubt it), the original post was about why white girls in Surrey BC don't show an interest in Indian guys. Ya I know that there are a lot of white women on this forum who say they like brown guys... but I really don't think that proves anything. There's obviously a sampling bias right? So for argument's sake let's just assume he's right for a sec. What factors contribute to the selection of a partner? There are a multitude of issues including acceptability amongst peers/family, socioeconomic factors, religion, etc etc etc . Basically too many to list.
One factor that I'd like to highlight is how the media shapes our subconscious ideas of what characteristics are attractive. Growing up almost all male heroes, sex symbols, love interests, etc that a little girl will see in the media are white. These figures will make up the bulk of all romantic figures she sees, fictional or otherwise. So I think it's fair to say that for a white girl (or any girl born on this continent) to be attracted to a non-white guy, she'll be attracted to somebody who is quite different from any of the romantic characters she grew up with. Now while there's obviously a very strong element of choice when it comes to choosing a guy to date, and a great many white girls will chose to date outside their own race, I think that the subconscious effect of the media's focus on white males can be significant and add to the long list of factors that others have cited in this thread. So when people feel that they're "just not attracted" to XYZ people, I don't think it's always a simple matter of individual preference, as those preferences may not be completely autonomous. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/6/2008 8:52:31 PM | | you know what there are some white girlslike indian guys. i have dated a white girl for almost year and half and it was excellent. we almost got married. but we broke up because of some distance issues. and she was very into me. so the subject we were discussing is not always true | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/7/2008 10:25:26 AM | Would it help to know that my child's father is Native Canadian?
Ah... but I am just ONE person.

|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/7/2008 2:47:14 PM | | I think it was East Indian, not native people of canada and United states...damn that Columbus and his stupid navigating error | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 5/7/2008 9:11:27 PM | | ^^^^^^^Funny....Yes, and there were atleast a million people on the shores of India with hands filled with garlands eagerly waiting for him. He disappointed them all. | |

| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/7/2008 10:13:35 PM | Because Kumar can teach Sally a thing or two in the bedroom with Hindu love moves from the Kama Sutra.
Anyways it bothers me not as I prefer Latina women and plenty dig white guys like me. | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/8/2008 4:36:51 AM | I actually think the citizens of India should also have a Columbus Day and be thankful he DIDN'T make it there considering the genocide that occured to the native people of the Americas with his ''discovery''.
As for Kumar teaching Sally. Had to laugh. Most Indian men I have talked to are inexperienced. However, they are willing learners and have a very romanticized view of love and sex that the majority of men do not have. Which is a wonderful thing to be on the receiving end of. | |

Given the corruption level in India (However its growing to the likings of western countries) some people would say that British Raj was good. One of the prominent Indian writers wrote "Good rule is not a substitute for self rule".
I understand the meaning of that sentence more clearly after living in western world myself for few years. I think luck favoured Indians, or may I say there were few wise guys to understand what's coming. | |

Why is it that many caucasian women in this town do not show an interest in indian guys? Now, I'm not talking about the stereotypical Apu but ... someone normal!
For the most part it’s a race issue, I live in the conservative South.
The one thing we do have going in our favor is Indians are highly educated and we are the richest ethnic minority in the US. Source: cnn | |

| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 8:00:12 AM | hey Raiderfan18,
just want to update you why India does not have Columbus day, reason is Columbus never reached India, it was Vasco De Gama that discovered India.
and yes Indian men are very passionate romantic and very dedicated to the person they love.
cheers | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 11:19:50 AM | I wasn't aware there was a huge embargo on white girls dating Indian men.
Shrug. I have liked some of them. I've like some people of every 'race'. Sometimes there are cultural issues that have to be worked out between parties. If you want it to work, it will. | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 1:26:26 PM | I know Indians don't have Columbus Day...it's a stupid holiday we have in America. He didn't discover India or America for that fact. Can't discover something already found.
As for the guy who thinks the American Indians were better off with Columbus coming here...WOW...maybe you need to learn a bit of American History and what the whites did to the American Indians. We took their land, forced them to assimilate or killed them, tried to break their spirt and forced them onto little pieces of land that were worthless. | |

| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 1:54:09 PM | The most attractive caucasian women will probably not date an asian or Indian male unless
A) He has many traditionally caucasian features.
B) He can guarantee her a specific lifestyle she finds attractive and desires (usually implies having great wealth). | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 1:59:31 PM | Wow thanks....
If dating Indian men makes me ''unattractive'' then so be it...I think they're HOT | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/10/2008 6:42:28 PM | The most attractive caucasian women will probably not date an asian or Indian male unless
A) He has many traditionally caucasian features.
B) He can guarantee her a specific lifestyle she finds attractive and desires (usually implies having great wealth). Over the years I have known a number of very attractive caucasian and black women who have dated asians and south asians.
It is the height of arrogance and stupidity when a person that is part of a group tries to speak for an entire group. Just because you know a group of caucasian women that find one type of guy attractive does not mean that everyone who looks like your friends share their narrow ideas. | |

I agree. That was a rather retarded statement in my opinion. | |
|
| Kama Sutra Posted: 5/11/2008 8:30:49 AM | Ok...uhm I keep getting people who believe I'm talking about Native American INdians addressing me. I merely pointed out to one poster who said her child's father was Native Canadian that we were talking about East Indians and that the reason for her mix up was probably due to that explorer Columbus not knowing where the hell he was when he landed and calling the ''new land'' India and the inhabitants, "indian"....
North American Natives are handsome too, however, my preference is East Indian men.
Ok hope that cleared t hings up | |
