I pretty much agree with what you're saying in general, though I think those are more generalities, and probably just as often one dates the other simply because they meet and their desires and personalities click. But those who specifically look for a certain race, then yeah, I agree with your perceptions overall.

The one bit I do question, though, is do you really think Asian women are "sucked into" dating American guys? That makes it sound like they're being coerced or given a false impression of what American guys are, when perhaps they may be dating them because they feel they'll be less traditional and thus, provide more freedom (aside from the ones who just have the basic chemistry, as I mentioned). But not being Asian, I really have no perspective so couldn't say for sure, it's just that you sort of made Asian women who date American guys sound like victims to some extent, which I have trouble believing as a generality (though of course there are exceptions, and guys will often exploit their vulnerabilities and take advantage of women of other cultures). But perhaps that was me misinterpreting what you were saying, or else you just know more about Asian women than I do, which is likely. :)
