'Yellow Fever' Fetish: Why Do So Many White Men Want To Date A Chinese Woman?
Telegraph (UK) ^ | July 1, 2014

Chinese writer Yuan Ren lifts the lid on so-called 'yellow fever': a well-peddled myth that Asian women make better sexual lovers than other women, while at the same time, having no meaningful presence in politics and popular culture

By Yuan Ren 01 Jul 2014 Ever heard of yellow fever? No, not the disease you can pick up when travelling to certain countries. I'm talking about when Caucasian men develop an acute sexual preference for East Asian women – even becoming a fetish, for some.

Naturally, there are dating websites aplenty dedicated to 'serving' those men who have yellow fever, where the average East Asian women is increasingly being perceived as a desirable partner.

In fact, the most recent figures from 2.4 million users of Facebook dating apps showed a clear skew in preference for women of East Asian descent by men of all racial groups, except, ironically, Asian men.

As a Chinese, single woman in the UK - where I have rarely come across racism – my East Asian friends and I have encountered a fair share of men with telltale signs of yellow fever. But it's subtle, and of course, few would admit to surfing online dating sites for Chinese women, yet when the only girls they date are Chinese, then the probabilities are in their favor.

Having said that, I'm surprised at what British men, both young and old, generally get away with when talking about East Asian women (Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc.) as well as South East Asian women (Vietnam, Thailand etc.)

There are sites for men to find brides from other countries. The common denominator is that American men are frustrated with liberal American female demands , and prefer to have a woman who has more traditional views of make female relations.

Of course the angry feminists are angry that men would reject them and try to find women who don’t have that modern feminist outlook on life. I myself would never consider this, but, just saying that some American men are seeking females from other cultures.

The real question is why do so many Asian women want to date white men?

It doesn’t matter what the men want if the women don’t want them.

Why make such a big deal about who people are attracted to? As long as they are of the opposite sex, what’s the difference?

My Vietnamese pseudo wife was much easier to live with and the relationship much calmer than any I have had with a white American female, including my wife.
