I grew up in a very Filipino and Japanese area with some Korean and Chinese here and there. You kind of learn to distinguish the difference between them based on the way they talk and just by face. Although there are those few that are a bit difficult to tell apart.

I'll have to agree with the post above about Japanese being friendly people. Japanese and Filipinos are friendly people. Especially Filipinos, of all the Asian/pacific islander cultures I'd have to say Filipinos in general are the most open to other cultures.

oh for the record, yes i can be shallow when it comes to a girl..

If its because there are certain things about a culture that appeals to you personally, fine. You can glorify Japanese women as much as you want but to compare two culturally specified group of women and then explicitly stating your preference of one over the other DOES sound racist and prejudice. No culture is superior over another. Every culture is rich and unique in their own way.

I'm not trying to target you personally, I am just targetting some of the things you said. Maybe you're not racist or prejudice. Just be careful in how you write your posts in the future.

haha... ok so we got past the point that i'm not racist or prejudice. now moving back to my choice of preference.

i didn't say that i think that the japanese culture is superior or that japanese women are the prettiest in the world, i'm just physically and mentally attracted to them. the last that i remembered, i am allowed to express myself freely in the forum and that is what i am doing. you and everyone else, can view this however you want, and i will not get bothered by it. anyone can express how they feel about it, and i will accept it. if i come off as sounding racist or prejudice, then that is only an assumption because you don't know me personally.

you can take my posts however you want, however to be honest, i am not going to change because you might feel one way or another towards me. you can love me or hate me, but i will still posts in the manner that i do because that's who i am. i love your response because it's honest so in return, i am doing the same...
