Other than that, I've never dated an Asian or Middle-Eastern man - not really on purpose, more like a mutual lack of attraction. Unfortunately the ones I do find attractive don't like me (probably because I'm more full-figured & tallish), and vice versa. And with Middle-Eastern men of Muslim descent, in particular, there's just the whole culture/religion clashing issue.



No, I don't think we're all weird! The OP is just mistaken, apparently, or it could be a regional thing. I'm in the Bay Area, where Asian and Hispanic people make up like 2/3 (if not more) of our population... so you would really have to TRY to avoid "brown men," and I see no reason to do that. My attractions tend to lean towards Black, Hispanic, NA, PI, and multi-ethnic men, but I've never rejected someone based solely on ethnicity.

P.S. I shouldn't admit this, but that felon dude is HOT. I know he's a scumbag, and won't be bailing him out - but a girl can still look, right?
I'm a gay man and I think the felon dude is hot lol! I've always has a thing for the "bad boys", but learned early on to find the ones with the bad boy looks, and good boy brains/job!

Back in my single days, I had a big thing going for the Hispanic guys, but ended up with a black man. It's worked out well... going on 18 years now

The guys I've seen and immediately lusted after are usually dark haired and often Jewish. Which sucks for me because I'm not Jewish.

This guy. He was Smith Jared on Sex and the City.

Realistically, I like "real" looking guys like Stephen Colbert and Tom Hanks. I would never see Smith Jared walking down the street and actually want to date him. These 2, maybe.

Lots of eye candy today. I saw a guy walking on the sidewalk as I biked to the train station who looked like a light skinned Maxwell circa 1997 (Maxwell is my all time celeb crush). Then at the train station I saw a 20 year old Ethiopian version of Michael Ealy.

And at lunch I saw a younger (think 40-ish), less pretty, Rick Fox lookalike (he wasn't silver fox status since he only had a few greys) at a nearby table.

Last person around where I am, that I found attractive was 2 years ago, and he was a guy I worked with. I wasn't a friend, so I guess he could count as a stranger, in that I don't know much about him, and hardly spoke to him. I know he had a girl and baby.

Black- light brown
Facial Hair--chin strap
Tall - I am only 5'0, so doesn't take much to look tall for me lol
Build - Skinny from what I could tell, looking at his arms

So, I thought he was very attractive. But didn't dwell on it too much.

I saw one more on the way home! A 30-year old version of Blair Underwood.

Wow! Must be nice. I had a big crush on Maxwell circa 1997 also. I recorded this Planet Groove performance and watched it over and over. lol I am having a hard time imagining what a 20 year old Ethiopian version of Michael Ealy would look like though.

We made and awesome powerpoint with Lenny Kravitz and Maxwell complete with animations and the appropriate soundtrack!

I like him with glasses, and the short hair works for him. But the fro was so fun!

Similar face shape and features with dark eyes. But Michael Ealy looks 30ish, and this guy was still "boyish." And he totally looked Ethiopian. I don't even know how to describe the Ethiopian guy look, but we have loads of Ethiopians in Oakland, you always no who is, and on the rare occasion you are unsure they seem to start speaking amharic and it is confirmed. *

*Ok some people may be Eritrean...but from a visual identification perspective they look the same.

Dark hair, blue eyes, short hair, a smile.

Often the most handsome men I see here are of Hispanic men with predominate Spanish heritage with minor NA influence or one of those rare bronzed or high yellow skinned mulatto men with fine features and a pleasing countenance.

Even then, seeing handsome men where I live is rare!

The white men in America are often subpar, and not amazing to look at one bit.
Germanic males usually do not interest me, but I did see some very fine, nice-looking men in England with very white skin and blond hair.
