Look around you anywhere you go today and you will see a smiling Western man arm in arm or hand in hand with a beautiful Asian woman. Interracial relationships and marriages are certainly common today, but is there anything especially flattering between Western men and Asian women? Perhaps you, like me, have been curious about how different cultural dynamics and traditions are resulting in wonderful and fulfilling love relationships. Seeing more and more Western guys with beautiful Asian girls shopping together at the mall or having romantic dinners with their lovely Asian wife prompted me to investigate further just out of sheer scientific curiosity…
I spoke with Filipino and Thai women living in the US and in the Philippines and Thailand to get to the bottom of this exciting cultural exchange. What I discovered made a lot of sense and helped explain the old term ‘Mail Bride’ that I’ve vaguely heard. I was told that many Asian women are treated as second-class citizens in their own country by the male population. Many Filipino women have told me that their boyfriends or husbands act as if their opinions, wants, and needs mean nothing to them. Believe it or not, some of these women don’t eat until the man has had his fill!
As these ladies told me how they had suffered in these relationships, I began to remember seeing advertisements for Romance Tours and Asian Women Looking for Marriage with men in foreign countries like the United States or Europe and could see now that it was not just for the better. economic opportunities. Many Thai and Filipino women were actually desperately hoping for a love affair that resembled the kind of partnerships they had heard about in Western marriages. Not to say that marriages in the United States or Europe are perfect unions, but the Western model of relationships is more open and shared and is much more like a give and take society than seeing an Asian wife walk 5 steps behind her husband. husband in public.
Many Asian girls today are unwilling to put up with the ‘woman as silent servant’ mentality of past generations. And thanks in part to Romance Tours for legitimate introduction service companies, these loving, caring, and devoted women now know that many Western men are actively looking to meet Asian women. It is true that the Western man has come a long way and generally consults his wife or girlfriend’s opinion on the events of everyday life and also on many of life’s challenges. In our culture, we are encouraged to treat our partner as equal or even better, and things like opening a door or taking out the trash can melt an Asian woman’s heart.
I have seen first hand how a caring and dedicated Asian wife treats her Western man and things like the pleasure of taking care of the home and her genuine concern for his comfort and happiness is an integral part of her upbringing. She will massage your neck and rub your feet at the end of a hard day’s work out of pure love and her desire to see you happy.
So, the result of my investigations…? Our two cultures, East and West, complement each other very well; here in the West we tend to treat women with more respect and tenderness while Asian women are taught to revere, care for and be devoted to their man.
