Whiteknight 142 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I don't see a lot of Fobby Asian guys dating Asian-American/Westerner girls. How come this is the case? Do FOb Asian dudes don't like westernized girls? FYT: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KissontheW1nD 5,731 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Really? "Fob"? And what makes you think just because you don't see it happening makes it the case all the time? If someone likes someone else and they hit it off then why wouldn't they make it a thing? If they're just friends, they're just friends. Simple as that. There doesn't have to be a reason for everything Overall, a good summation as to how your thread has made me feel would be this iconic pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceHism 536 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 So they only date within their culture basically? No. Some of them would rather date someone outside of their race. Those are the kinds that you basically have to offer to teach english to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DivaBoo 1,480 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 What should I call them then? Call them their freaking name, pronounce it right, and don't make fun them. These supposed "fobs" are just people, you know? People who want to have the same opportunities and lives as you. gosh, even as an Asian that speaks fluent English, this pisses me off. It's degrading to be called a fob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully 4,318 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 IDK I've seen plenty foreign Asian men dating white American girls around different areas and seeing their photos online and such. What I've also seen is it seems most want nothing to do with dating black girls. If you're not a cute Asian girl, your chances are better the closer to white you look.

hot toe picker 2,061 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 wait what is a fob? I guess it's a derogatory term (in certain areas) for an immigrant / newcomers who haven't fully grasped the country's culture, language, or behavior. Means "fresh off (the) boat". Where I'm from it's not a dergatory term tho. Like AnthonyKkokko said, we use it to just describe the newcomers of whatever country we're living in.

ScarletWhimsy 2,203 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Most of them probably don't. There's cultural differences between Asians raised in Asia, and those who grew up in North America. It might be hard to connect. Also, different beauty standards, in terms of appearance-wise preferences. Not saying it's not possible I just haven't seen it happen a lot.
