I didn't mean everyone was being defensive...this type of question, for a lot of people, leads to the "self-hate, other races on pedestal issue" and the actual question gets skirted around by people looking for the "deeper meaning". Defensive might not of have been the appropriate term.
This is not a for me question...i've dated white girls, indian girls, mix girls, models, chubbies all of the above. I am completely happy with myself and my Bollywood level of attractiveness :-), and know what I like physically and personality wise in girls I am just curious about everyone else's experiences.
sidenote: looks don't matter as much as proximity, availability, and luck. I see indian guys with white girls all the time but it is from having class, work, etc something with them where they get to know each other. My question is more for the random at the bar, or club scene...do any of you indian guys go out and routinely do well with non indian girls>?
you have to admit,most of the time, that is just the case, though. it's particularly white worship. what about the hispanics, blacks, asians, even the fellow desis etc?
i'm not a guy, but I've seen it happen a couple times, if that's what you wanted to hear. i think any guy has the potential to do well with a race other than his own if he carries himself right. i think it is harder for a minority guy, though. but if he overcomes the negative stereotypes (and the people who live by stereotypes are those who haven't met people of a certain kind), he should do fine =-)
i don't think it's a big deal if a person chooses to or not to date inter-ethnically.
