It is that whenever an Asian man is seen as being attractive they always pull out the words "But he is Asian". I have seen it a lot on Twitter and from my friends in the USA. There was an attractive Asian filmstar that some American girls were talking about on Twitter, about how he was attractive, "But eww, he is Asian". He may be tall, wealthy, good looking, ripped etc... "but he is Asian". That is what I find depressing... this Nazi like obsession with feeling racially superior.
In very few places in the world is there such accepted and blatant racism against a group of men. Which is why I don't understand why my American Asian brothers stay in the USA and take this contempt which American society obviously has for them. It is not paradise abroad, but, as a minority male you get judged more on your individual merits than just your race. An attractive man is an attractive man, an unattractive man is an unattractive man... that is the way it should be. But, in America, it seems not.
Another important point, the reason imo that American Asian women sell out and go for white men (statistics don't lie, seeing these couples around everywhere on US streets does not lie) is because of this relentless racism against Asian men in the media and society. It is sad that these women avoid Asian men because they are afraid of racism by others. They secretly hope that by going for whites they will be accepted into white society and acquire white privileges. However, they will never be truly accepted as whites by whites. It is a victory for racism.
I don't think that it is impossible in America. If you are objectively a good looking guy, you will do OK in America as well, but you would need to look, because as stated before this some level of bias. But it has improved greatly over the last 10-15 years, especially in more coastal areas.
However, yes it is much better in Europe, the Middle East, South America, etc and also a big improvement in the NE US as well (more similar to Europe).
But many Australians/Kiwis to me seem to be the worst-- I think there are resentment issues that they are surrounded by and economically depend on Asia.
What has been stated previously is true-- you need to be pretty good looking and completely westernized. If you are fobby/stereotypical or average/ugly, then it can be difficult in America, whereas average looking guys might be able to be ok abroad or only in more intellectual or geeky circle in America.
