- It is probabily true and the main reason for it may be the large number of
- white males in the military being stationed overseas (ie asian countries).
- Several friends of mine in the military (Americans not just white) found
- their wifes while stationed in asia. Another reason might be the old myths
- about asian women being more devoted to their husbands.
- I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS TRUE, but the perception presists, so the conclusion
- could be 1. Some White men want the "subservant" asian woman, and 2. Asian
- men might be leary of an Outspoken White female.
