Is it true that white men are the most desired men in asia?
She said its because Asian girls, especially korean girls, look for 5 main things in a guy for physical attraction.
tall height (white men are… I had a Korean girlfriend before and she told me this.
She said its because Asian girls, especially korean girls, look for 5 main things in a guy for physical attraction.
tall height (white men are the tallest in the world)
white skin(this is the skin colour asian girls find the most attractive, korean guys tend to be light/medium brown)
white facial features, such as a thin high nose, less wide face, v-taper jaw, double eyelids, thicker eyebrows etc..
bigger d
more muscle than asian guys
then she said there is other things which makes white guys attractive , which isnt physical attraction, but still is desirable
white guys are the richest guys in the world
best countries in every measurable aspect, they want to live there
highest social status in the world
do you think what she said is true?
Is it true that white men are the most desired men in asia? if not, tell me why not
(here for a discussion of reality, no racism or jealousy please)
man that list reads like she was describing a kdrama character more than any real guy i see walking around bangkok. most thai girls i know are way more into personality and how well u fit into their family life than some checklist of physical traits
nah that list is super exaggerated. like yeah some asian women date white guys but mostly because of media influence and travel culture, not some checklist. most asian women i know in bkk just date whoever they click with, race barely matters day to day
your ex's list reads like a k-pop fan's fantasy more than reality tbh. in bangkok, soi cowboy or nana plaza might give u that impression but those are tourist zones, not thai life. walk through ari or ekkamai on a friday night and u'll see mostly thai couples, lots of mixed too but not some hierarchy.
the wealth and status thing especially doesnt hold up here. a thai guy with a good job at a bank or running a small business is often seen as way more stable than a white backpacker or even an expat teaching english for 60k baht. plus the language and family connection is huge, most thai women i know say they'd rather deal with a thai mother-in-law they understand than navigate that cross-culture gap
your list sounds like she was describing what some korean beauty standards look like on a white guy, not what all asian women want. if u hang around thammasat or chula uni, u'll see plenty of asian guys with those same traits she listed, tall, light skin, sharp jawlines, it's not exclusive to white men at all

best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.
for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.
honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
