There are big differences across Europe so you can't just generalise. Southern Europe is often more staunchly religous in areas such as Italy, Greece, parts of the Balkans and Turkey (if you include it in Europe).
As well as difference relating to Northern and Southern Europe, opinion may also be differented according to Eastern and Western Europe. I personally have found some parts of Eastern Europe suffer far higher levels of racism than the West. Europe as a continent stretches right across the East and includes places such as Poland, Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria etc as well as the Old Soviet satellite states. A good deal of Russia is also part of the European Continent including it's capital Moscow.
There also may be differences according to urban population as opposed to rural - people in urban areas tend to be far more used to ethnic diversity than people from some rural enclave in Romania.
In my opinion it would be impossble to generalise about the whole of Europe, there are so many differences in a continent of over 800 million people.
What's so special about white women that they would feel this is an issue that white women aren't into them?? They aren't any better or worse looking than any other ethnicity of women imo. If they don't like your friends there's plenty of other attractive women to go around.
for this topic, I am talking mainly about White women since they are constitute the majority in both countries
I have heard over the web a lot and just a few weeks ago I heard a personal experience in real life. I know two guys (former classmates), one who is Korean and another who is Indian (harold and kumar anyone? lol). Both are over 6 ft tall, fit bodies, college graduates, and have a decent salary too. When they were in Virginia (Northern VA), they complained of two things:
1. Most women who were White did not really look at them as dating material, they preferred White men and then Black or Latino men.
2. Most women who were White and did look at them as dating material were not desirable in other ways (already had kids, overweight and didn't really take care of themselves, not that good looking (lets be honest, looks matter, and these two guys are keeping themselves fit they at least deserve an average looking girl)).
Regardless my two former classmates dated quality Black, Asian, and in some cases Latina women (though they said the Whiter looking ones tended to avoid them).
Now recently two of my classmates are in Europe. One is in Sweden (Indian one) and the other is in France (Korean one). I keep up with them on facebook and both are in a relationship with quality women who happen to be White, something they themselves said could never really happen in America.
Not only that but I also notice it talking to women, many make their preferences known. A lot make it known that they will not date an Asian at all. Yet in Europe it seems that this is not the case.
Travelers, can you aware me?
This is so sad! Some Korean guys are SO. GOOD. LOOKING!! Indian guys, too! Maybe it's an Eastern (US) thing? or southern? (VA is south of the Mason-Dixon line.) Too bad I missed 'em.
European women tend to be more into exotic men, imo. But it depends on how you define "European". Eastern Europe: pretty much--fuggedaboudit. Speaking in broad generalizations, allowing for exceptions, of course.
Sorry your friends didn't have too good a time in the US. I've never heard of women saying they wouldn't consider dating an Asian, but I haven't asked. I see a fair number of Tibetans with American White women, though. Maybe Tibetans are trendy, while Koreans, Japanese and Chinese aren't. :-/
Go figure.
