I don't want this to sound like i'm Filipino bashing because i'm really not but I mentioned the low average IQs a really long time ago in another post. I was looking at IQ scores and trying to figure out why NE Asian men overwhelmingly marry from countries like Vietnam over the ones that are assumed to be "easy" by western men. Aside from the cultural aspects I think NE asian men prefer women who have other skills and intellect beyond just being baby or sex machines.
The average IQs for NE Asian or ethnic NE Asian countries tend to be pretty close.
HK: 107/108
Singapore: 103/108
South Korea: 106/106
Japan: 105/105
Taiwan: 104/105
China: 100/105
Then when you get to SE Asia (except Singapore and HK which are ethnic Chinese) this happens:
Vietnam: 96/94
Malaysia: 92/92
Thailand: 91/91
Cambodia: 89/91
Laos: 89/89
Indonesia: 89/87
Philippines: 86/86
Out of all the SE Asian groups Vietnamese are on top and interestingly enough are also overwhelmingly selected as best choices for foreign brides by men from NE Asian countries like Taiwan and Korea. Thai and Filipino foreign brides are a scant 10% of all female foreign brides in Taiwan.
the vietnamese score.....they got it by dividing the thai IQ by the urban chinese IQ....shows you how much credibility that IQ test is with so much data manipulation in it
you do realize that the test does not assest the intelectual ability but only what they have learned on a western scale . So if your schools are not on par it would reflect on the study...and has no real bearing on the indivdual....if any of that was true then why do filipino-americans have a higher income and higher educational attainment then chinese americans

while there are more taiwanese/koreans married to vietnamese women........more filipina women are married to japanese then any other SEAsian.......so there is no perference for vietnamese wives for NEAsians as a whole
