| Asian/Black dating does it happen?
Posted: 5/30/2008 2:07:59 AM | I'm just curious....I've seen a lot of Asian/white couples and some Asian/Indian couples
but very rare do I see Asian/Black couples....which puzzles me because Toronto is a melting pot of a city......is it just a cultural thing? | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 2:31:14 AM | True enough yes.....but how many such union do you see walking down the street where you live? compared to say Asian/White couples......I do know some Asian/Caribbean couples but I'm not even going to count them because in that situation the Asian person lived on an island where 90% of the inhabitants are black.....so it was pretty good chance that would be the result. | |

The reason you do not see it in the city.... well, the military installations, especially Army are in the middle of nowhere. Go around the Army bases, where you will find this phenomenon more frequently than anywhere else. | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 9:10:20 AM | It is rare. My sister dated a few black guys but it's uncommon to see.
I think it's because there's a lot of racism in the Asian community, especially towards the Black community. Families and parents often don't approve of interracial dating, especially if they were raised overseas. | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 12:36:33 PM | | it's rare but it happens. I've gone out with a few asian men myself. Actually, most of my black female friends have a preference for asian guys, haha. We're an odd bunch, I guess... | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 1:09:38 PM | | I have seen it a few times. But not that often. I'm a black man and I'm generally not attracted to Asian women although there are exceptions to that. I have seen a few Asian women that I thought were attractive. | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 3:03:59 PM | | Yea I live in the GTA and don't see that couple combination too often. I only know of 2 black/asian couples. One couple with 3 beautiful kids, and the other couple has the cutest son. Both those couples are over 35 years old. I'm in my 20's and I've never known of any (between people I've know). And the few times I contacted an Asian person on this site it wasn't successful. So I dunno it's a rare breed of couples I think. | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 3:12:46 PM | | Me and my friends were talk'n bout this yesterday... Asians male and female seem to pretty much stick together and rarely date outside their race.. Even when I go out to the clubs its everyone out in a bout have'n fun all mixed together and then you have the Asians chillen in their own seperate corner. I've dated a few Asians when I was stationed in Germany and only 2 hear in the states.. It happens but its very rare.. Unfortuneatly a lot of other races view dating a Black person as very degrade'n. Well mostly the older generations feel that way, and ofcourse the kids don't wanna make mommy and daddy mad and fall from their good graces. | |

Posted: 6/5/2008 7:35:23 PM | Yes it does happen. I dated a guy who is Happa (half Asian for 2 years). One of the challenges is that many men of Asian heritage raised in North America tend to be hung up on White women. Even on this site, there are men who are unwilling to consider a Black woman. It's kind of laughable because some of those same men will come into the forums and whine and complain that White women won't even respond to their e-mails yet alone date them. There are certain a lot of aspects that say West Indian and Asian cultures have in common such as:
- strong achievement orientation
- heavy emphasis on education
- extended family structure
- respect for elders
- importance of church/religion
Yet, a match with a White women who shares none of this seems by some to be viewed as more desireable. The attitude for some seems to be only a White woman will do. I find that Asian men who were raised in Asia are more open to dating Black women. Of course, then there can be some language and cultural challenges but with hard work these can be overcome....it's not always easy though. | |

Posted: 6/5/2008 8:19:14 PM | | I'm half black/half hispanic and my boyfriend is a beautiful Asian man. I haven't had any problems finding Asian men to date me and I'm half black. They're shy, so I have to do the approaching though. | |

Posted: 6/5/2008 10:40:17 PM | Yep yep~~ my sister dated 2 ppl, and they were both black
However.... like some other replies.... the "parents" usually don't like that..
My parents were really angry with my sister for dating a black guy
For some reason... they are ok with white... no idea why...
but for the "younger" generation, Asian women don't mind black guys, it's mainly that parents that mind.... I guess where they grew up also matters. You are a lot more open to dating non-Asians if you grew up in some parts of Canada | |

Posted: 6/6/2008 8:02:31 AM | You are a lot more open to dating non-Asians if you grew up in some parts of Canada
Well yes and no. I should clarify many of the Asian guys who grew up in Canada will consider an Asian woman who grew up in Canada or a White woman.....PERIOD! In fact, some are hung up on dating Whites. They would pick a White woman who did not grow up in Canada over an Asian woman who grew up in Asia any day.
While some Asian men who grew up in Canada are open to dating women who are Black, I have found that many have an only a White woman or Canadian raised Asian woman will do attitude. I guess that is understandable in terms of similar backgrounds while growing up and common cultural reference. (The preference for a White woman no matter where she was raised I don't get.) Why some of these guys automaticallyrule out Black women who grew up in Canada is beyond me. Some are just as brainwashed as the White guys when it comes to this.
It is disappointing when one finds a profile and it is clear that you share similar interests are both entrepreneurs, well travelled and are both also in the arts, for example, and the guy will only consider a White women. You see a bright, educated Asian guy with some White woman who barely finished high school and is working as a temp. secretary.  You think "He thinks I'm not good enough for him and SHE an uneducated temp secretary is better than me. Yeah right!! 
Some of these guys have a WARM time when they eventually get their trophy White wife and find that she is shallow and her values are totally out of sync (e.g. she is into encouraging their teenage daughter to land a boyfriend as soon as possible and he is into encouraging her to get an education, for example). I am not saying that ALL White women are like that. However, if a guy is shallow, he will tend to attract a shallow woman. When this happens they should just shut up and not whine about it. I when I see situations like that I and think "serves him right for being so racist and shallow". 
Well Blacks are often viewed negetively by other races so I think Asians and Blacks dating each other is extremely rare, at least where im from
This is definitely true. I laugh my head off though when they automatically rule me out and end up with someone White who treats them like dirt. Good for them!! | |

Posted: 6/11/2008 8:14:13 AM | I actually saw an Asian/black couple the other day, when I was out shopping. They had a little boy (cutest lil guy!) but unfortunately they were getting quite a few stares when we walked by.. now whether they were judgemental stares or not.. I couldn't tell.
Where I live (Thunder Bay, Ontario) there are very few black or asian men.. (well that I've seen anyway).. and even on here there are maybe two or three that come up in the search and thats about it. Its a shame though.. especially for the lack of black men.. cause to me they are the sexiest of the two.. hands down. :) | |
