| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 4/2/2007 4:58:12 PM | Elzeothis, thanks for setting the precident. I'm biracial, too. And yeah, I've noticed that I tend to attract people who are typically more cosmopolitan.
AND now I weigh in on this very thread: My father's a Sikh from India, my mother's got a western European background and is Lutheran. [u]Both practise[/u] their respective religions, so while my mother's gearing up for Easter, my father's picked out a leaf-green turban to wear at Easter dinner. It wasn't always this harmonious, but I think they've mellowed in almost 40 years. Well, that and they know that open communication is vital for any long-term relationship.
I've dealt with stupid/offensive assumptions from both groups that range from all my people (I have a people!) "smell," women with my skincolour (I'm fair) are sluts, I'm not entitled to my first name (it's from my dad's region), I don't like Merchant X because it's a "tribal thing." These things pop up in daily conversation, on dates, blah blah. Usually, they're voiced by people who honestly do know better, they've just left their brains on the bus. Biracial 'kids' tend to grow up just understanding that this happens - it's not okay, but how much do you really care to fight all the time?
I'm okay with most mono-ethnic people avoiding me the dating context. I see first-hand how hard it is for my parents to stay together with all the regular pressures of marriage *and* the "mixed thing." And even in progressive families, there will always be a very vocal, very narrowminded minority who make it hard for a biracial couple.
If you're not sure you can deal with someone who has a different worldview, it's probably best you keep looking. I don't think that's racist, I think that's being honest with yourself. Staying together *happily* usually means compatibility. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 4/2/2007 5:05:44 PM | | If he was a normal Canadian guy who just happened to be East Indian (and was cute) then that wouldn't matter. However if he was too involved in the culture (and my best friend is East Indian so I have an idea of what it's like) then no. I wouldn't date him. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 4/11/2007 5:16:51 PM | TheDancingQueen - "I'll tell you my experiences. I find that many Indian guys, not all but a great many, appear to have a hygeine issue. Lots of them just smell bad. I don't know if it's the food or some other cultural aspect, but I've talked about this with some of my other coworkers and friends and I'm not the only one who has noticed this. That aspect is just not attractive."
you would be right in that! i know some indian guys who do not consider having proper hygeine very important or they are too lazy or something; that is disguisting. btw i am an indian male born and brought up in india. i have tried to polietely and later quite directly address this issue, but some of these fellow indians dont seem to care. it is extremely unprofessional and i apologize on behalf of all of them! some of us are trying to break the mold, very difficuilt though! | |

I love and eat the east Indian food often and it hasn't affected my body in that way. But I have dated white men with poor hygeine ...so I see it as an individual by individual issue."
now, dont get me wrong...! it is not the smell of curry and spices, i am talking about! i agree the food contents and habits might/probably has an effect on the subtle smell each person has..., but it would not be strong enough for another person to notice unless he/she is intimate with the other maybe. i am talking about basic personal hygeine including showers, deodrants and most importantly clean socks/shoes. now, it is not just my countrymen. i have come across many others from most other nationalities also. but, just like one person pointed out this issue, i feel i have some small responsibility to break this incresingly building stereotype image of indians, for the welfare of myself and others! | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 4/11/2007 7:06:14 PM | it is true what u say, to be frank it is good when u read but it is very difficult to accept it,
for eg --> if u ask a scottish girl / white girl to choose a person with two option 1] white guy 2] indian
then her choice will be towards white guy at that time she wont think about the heart , someone to care for you , etc always first option goes to attraction / colour (in this colour matters a lot) second she will think about heart, feelings, etc | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 4/11/2007 7:09:03 PM | | No one here has mentioned Native Americans. I am very much into their culture and beliefs. They are a very spiritual people. I dated a man from the Mohawk tribe and found him to be a very kind and considerate man. Even though it didn't work as far as us being a couple, we are still friends. | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/3/2007 6:30:19 AM | | Thank you for being honest. Indian Men brought up here in North America are nothing like Indian men from back home. Indian men and women here have integrated very well. Thanks for keeping an open mind. | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/3/2007 8:06:43 AM | Ok well i could make the same statement about men from south america. I've dated two of them, and they had to really be nasty smelling before they took a bath.
i went out with an Indian guy from this site and he smelled just fine, and was very good looking. However after we went out he disappeared, only to reappear asking if he could date my daughter. What a dork! However, i won't hold this against Indian men
As I'm not religious at all, I am open to dating anyone of any religion. I find many Indian men very good looking and would never rule them out. About six years ago I dated a guy who was half Brazillian/half Indian...and all hot hot hot...and he smelled great by the way...maybe because he was full american...who knows??? I know I don't smell like chalk. I smell like bananas or whatever body wash i'm using this week. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/3/2007 8:10:19 AM | | Hi i was brought up in a 99% white community, where unfortunately there was little acceptance for people of diverse culture and beliefs, mainly because unfortunately we just don't understand where the people are coming from. I think the only problem I would have is, if the person i dated was a devout Muslim/seek etc and it would become a problem, such as me not wanting to wear the traditional dress. However if the gentlemen in question was just of another colour with similar beliefs and understanding to me, then i wouldn't bat an eye lid. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/18/2007 8:55:44 PM | I would say the answer is pretty obvious. Women are the "choosier" sex and when you grow up in North America the white population is dominant. So you will be more likely to see whites w/whites. What does this mean for you? Well I can tell you most women do care about what their friends and family think, they don't want to be looked at as "that couple". Alot of people are racist, really. If you think I'm wrong well then you must be Caucasian. It happens everyday, almost to the point you expect it to happen. We are the most hated race these days, being shone in a very bad light. Doesn't matter if you're muslim, buddist, sihk, etc people only see skin colour. It's the hard truth.
However this doesn't represent the Indian women, I see white guys dating outside there race all the time. It's a double edge sword, if you are a white male you will not have much problems dating inside and outside your race. If you are a male visible minority you will have a much smaller window of opportunity to date other women, mainly caucasian. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/18/2007 9:41:28 PM | To Liqwid,
you have a lot to learn, women in Hamilton go out with guys from all races. You have to approach them. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/18/2007 11:37:25 PM |
why does your woman have to be Caucasian....sounds like prejudice just in reverse to what you are accusing us of.
Exactly. It kills me when men complain that White women are discriminating against them and these same men discriminate against women who are not White. Sounds really hypocritical. I even had one respond to me and say sorry his tastes are on the "blonde side" and he is fixated on the blonde gene...his words...not mine. | |

I don't know if it was so much being discriminatory as much as it was him simply asking a question. Well anyway, we all like what we like. Just because you don't find the 'characteristics' of certain ethnic groups (which of course aren't true for all of them. Like some Asian men are tall) attractive enough to date doesn't mean you have anything against them as a people. | |

Indians are CAUCASIAN too .....lol...............thats why this thread is an oxymoran . There are white caucasians and brown caucasians .Same race entirely . | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 3:38:54 AM | OP, although I am not in your area there are many Indian men in southern California and to me it's a personal preference thing. I just am not attracted to middle eastern men. Blue | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 4:44:32 AM | | that last poster demonstrates how stupid some women are in certain areas of California and for that matter the US since middle eastern men and Indian men are not the same thing. | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 6:51:29 AM | Lol, THIS from a short little man who says in his profile "it's rutting season and i need a doe"? Good luck with that search you little weasel.....you've just proven how shallow some men can be......regardless of race. And FYI, I'm not FROM California so THERE!!!  | |
|
| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 6:54:25 AM | | No nick, Indians are definitely NOT Caucasian! They're a separate race of people who originate from INDIA......duh! | |

I agree with this completely.
Since 9/11, I'm sure those with darker skin tones that might make someone look Middle Eastern are just going to have a harder time of things.
I can tell you what I personally think - an Indian / White baby is often not a good mix. The end result is often not an attractive baby. It's the same for Asian / Black babies. I'm not saying these babies are any less healthy or worthwhile as children, but physically, they aren't as attractive to me as a White/White mix or a White/Asian mix or a White/Latino mix.
I do see Indian men with white women on occasion, but that's usually when the man is loaded down with money. Good looks is less of a determinant of who you date versus your income level, so in that regard, I think Indians aren't completely hopeless for dating outside their race.
A rich Indian man will have an easier time than a poor white man. But a poor Indian man won't. White is only a dealbreaker when everything else is equal, so if you are Indian and want to date outside your race, don't ever let things be equal. | |

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 8:46:38 AM | OP,
What about the whole body odor issue? With the large amounts of curry ingested and the bathing habits…. OMG! It’s almost worth boycotting 7/11 stores.
Yeah, I find the olive skin attractive yet find it most difficult to overcome the above mentioned. Not only girls are choosy.

| Caucasian Women + Indian Guys Posted: 6/19/2007 9:24:14 AM | To blueeyedbabe,
I'm a weasel, because you don't know your grade three geography. And you are not the only one who has given that response (confusing whole regions of the world). So you in fact are the little weasel for trying to make me feel bad about your own lack of basic knowledge, that a literate person should have. Stop trying to make my profile an issue and stick to the topic.
Regarding indian white babies my nieces have a blonde mother and indian dad and are very cute.
By the way there are lots of Indians who grew up since they were babies in the West, like North America and don't stink. To say that by race/ethnicity you stink, even if by culture you are the same as everyone else is kind of bigotted.
Regarding whether Indians are Caucasians, Indians don't have their own race with separate and disctinct features, I would say they are a little like Caucasians and a little like Orientals since over time there was a lot of travelling to India from other parts of the world. Most European languages have common links to India. There are very few areas of the world that are purely one race save maybe some parts of Africa and China, the rest of the world has been intermixed for thousands of years due to travel and trade. Sorry racial purists. | |

Yay... another dumb blonde, Are you from California? Please stay there

Again this "only if they're rich" theory of yours was debunked a long time ago. Why did you even bother posting if you're going to say the same thing over and over again? you want a guy with alot of money we get it but you DON'T speak for the entire female population
