Yellow Fever. [ yel'lo f'var]
1. A viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes in South America and sub-Saharan Africa
2. An intense attraction for Asians by Caucasians
It's the Mount Qomolangma of obstacles, the nightmare on bar street, the reason why single white females cry in their half-price drinks on Ladies Night as they're passed over for the long black hair and short skirts of their Chinese sisters. As the bar chanteuse croons, "I've got the fever" the male expatriates sing lustily in reply ".yellow fever!"
"I'm a reasonably attractive, intelligent woman who, like these guys thought out-of-the-box and came to China. And we share the same native language. Why those girls over me?" laments a single white female. Why indeed. China has long been known as a single (sometimes married) white man's playground while at the same time being a single white woman's wasteland.

What is it then that attracts expatriate men to Chinese women? Is it their petite size, willingness to submit to their needs, eagerness to help their men succeed? Duh, yes.
Rightly or wrongly, Chinese women fully expect their husbands to be the provider and will take a backseat in order for them to be successful. Of course, for the male expatriates, dreams of lives like a bed-of-roses are abruptly pierced with thorny predicaments when meeting future in-laws. But differences aside, many such couples press ahead with the multiple bridal ceremonies and receptions. Chicken breast is on the wedding menu for guests in his hometown, while the head and feet are served up to friends and family in hers.
>> Should more expatriate women seek our local Chinese men?
Now with the male-female ratio in China decidedly greater on the male side, why don't more expatriate women increase their dating pool and seek out local Chinese men?
Well even if the single white female is relatively conversant in Chinese, there's a physical obstacle. It's embarrassing when your boyfriend's jeans are smaller than your own. It may harken back to that "hunter-gatherer" thing, but generally, women want men who are tall enough to see over their foreheads (Tom Cruise excepted).
Chinese men, unlike Chinese women, are more risk-averse and less comfortable swimming in the uncharted seas of cross-cultural relationships. Chinese men are more tradition bound and especially in the age of the one-child family, bear a heavy filial duty to their parents. Sons are expected to take care of their parents, but in reality it's the wife's duty to serve the in-laws. And Po po and Gong gong are none too happy when laowai girlfriend plans to kidnap their son to Phuket for Spring Festival instead of staying at home and rolling jiaozi with them. Yes, parents can be a buzz kill.
And true or not (but mostly true), expatriate women carry the reputation for being very vocal about what they think and want. Few are the Chinese men who will put up with losing face over inadvertent statements made by their expatriate girlfriends. So unless the single white female is fluent in Chinese and understands the culture, a Chinese man will be reluctant to start something he knows will end badly.
With all these advantages to Chinese women, what's a single white female to do? There's fading hope in quasi-social networking cocktails or maybe another awkward evening matched up with the only other single at your friend's dinner party or worst yet, waking up in someone's hand-me-down IKEA bed in a fourth floor walk-up after a mind-numbing night of vodka shots at the local pub.
Yes girlfriend, if China will be your life, then go native; if not then, better luck back on your home turf. Match.com is waiting.
okay, so now she looks like she 14. Still creepy.
It's the mystique. They are exotic.
>>Is it weird that most of the guys on this thread that laud the superiority of their Asian wives/girlfriends/fantasies seem to define themselves by their preference? I mean, look at the screen names...

“long elegant legs”
You are so sex obsessed that your name is all sex.
Please don’t try to work us with your cheap sexual tricks.
Ooooh, beware my evil sex!
For gosh sakes, if you have something to say besides crap, please say it it.
Feminism , political correctness, and the “ it’s all about me “ attitude is where the problem is .
LOL
SAw that all too often while in RoK and tpoo many times Stateside.
Entire family - to cousins as well....
The women in our clan are tough women who enjoy living a, seemingly, more traditional role. Our sil fit right in from the first and we became VERY close over the years.
What, you were looking for insightful commentary and brisk intellectualism at 3 am?
Do your thing, man. I’ll point out wierdness when I see it, and you can get all huffy about sex on the internet.
I assume that you saw post 139...I busted a gut laughing. It should be immediately posted to every one of these recurring threads.
I did, it was pretty amusing...For all people say that Asian men are scared of white women, when I was in Japan, the most expensive brothels always advertised their blond Russian hookers.
I personally do not find Asian women really attractive, I would say some are beautiful but they don’t exactly turn my crank.
And I agree American women are too interested in the perfect DNA, the perfect house, the perfect SUV, and then when they find a guy to settle down he usually winds up being a gay metrosexual.

I'm fairly sure the answer is "no".

I can also assure you that Miss Shinozaki is a legal adult and over the age of consent in every country in the world.
We, too, have a Japanese lady in our family, my aunt. I love her to pieces. She’s a tough, funny, loving person whom I have admired since I was a child.
