Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
waited like 2 hours for the midnight showing...the lines were crazy...but yeah as for the movie...it was decent...i'd give it a 5.5/10 maybe a 6/10
i wouldn't advice anyone NOT to see it...it's worth the watch...entertainment intelligent...the action scenes were pretty intense...michael bay always has a knack and this special vision for special effects and remedy sequences...9/10 in that category
but as for everything else...the movie seemed rushed...it was under plotted and overlong...the movie was pretty much all flash no material...overrated and overhyped
i still liked it though...just highly disappointed because with michael bay's direction and all the great special effects...this could've obviously been one of the best movies of the summer...but fell quite short due to the lack of a storyline and consistency in the plotMostly

Are Asian American guys underdogs in the dating world and a dying breed?
Now i'm speaking specifically about Asian American guys. Asian living in the Common States. Are they becoming a dying breed? Are they also the underdogs. Everything is fine, except asian girls don't find them attractive, and interracial marries that involves minority men with other races isn't to a large accepted. So where do they turn to? They say races should marry one another, but when their own counterparts or whatever aren't interested in Asian guys, where does that leave the Asian guys? Are they authentic underdogs?
This is a stack of rubbish. You guys are missing the point. Asian American men are highly selective when it comes to women, be it Asian, White, Black, or Latino. We have a non-specified way we like to do things, and that simply isn't the way women like it. Honestly, we don't care. Dating isn't even close to the top of our priorities. We value our GPAs and entire contributions to a better world far more than those small things in life.
The main issue is that Asian men, particularly we Chinese, are critical for people to read in general. The key to understanding us is that you cannot use body language to try to "read" what we're thinking. That in itself can be disturbing to people. If you reckon you know what we're thinking without actually hearing from us explicitly what we're thinking, you have the wrong idea. Often people as me whether Asian men are attracted in partcular to corpse-like women. This statement cannot be more wrong. Asian men may look at women, but it's with a sort of curiosity, not any form of attraction at all. We are most attracted to a assets c incriminating evidence personality and high intelligence. For that, we have to know the girl before we ask them out. Hence, you rarely find us approaching girls without having known them scrupulously.
I don't care what kinds of nonsense you've heard, but as a rule, if a girl doesn't find an Asian man attractive, the Asian man probably doesn't find the skirt attractive either. Often, Asian girls who are raised in the US very easily adopt the American social etiquette. We Asian Americans do so as well, with the exception of the whole dating feature. If girls want to date us, they have to play by our rules, and we don't even have the slightest sense that we are somehow a "dying breed" or losers or any characterize. If that means we never get married, then it's perfectly fine, we can draw happiness elsewhere. I'm not going to go around selecting one particular race to pass. If you go by your logic, then Asian men should technically date no one. You stated that Asian women don't like Asian men. If that is so, then no particular race of women are attracted to Asian men, and justly, I don't think Asian men are attracted to any particular race of women. It is the very few types of highly intelligent and NICE (keyword there, a lot of women are very b***hy and we naturally despise that. For some reason, it seems to be socially accepted for women to be b***hy toward men, and it's a total turnoff) women, regardless of race, that we would even think dating.
havent you seen Jon and Kate with the addition of 8. Asian man, white woman, crap load of kids to carry on the bloodline. No they wont be dying out anytime speedily.
I always see Asian men with Asian women. But if it's valid with what you are saying then you end up with a load of half asian/half white babies. Which come out look 95% Asian so the cycle goes on.
Infernal regions no. They are rich and they get wives from Russian and E Europe.
No. They always end up with virtuous women who end up having kids that look Asian anyway. Underdogs my ass.
I be acquainted with how you feel bro. I'm an Asian guy too. We're the most hated group of people in America.
In fact there is evidence interracial marriage is decreasing
The guy above me, Hi, I prospect you are not the fake Gentlemintos. I am tired of people disguised the real one.
Anyway, about Asian guys, they are absolutely NOT underdogs in dating cosmos. Majority of Asian women date and are married with Asian men.
The point is they are in such tiny percentage in the usa vs the vast majority white and hispanic guys, sometimes its very pitiless to come across them, very very hard..............they are almost like gems.
I admire Asian guys, they study well at school, work rough, nice looking, humble and family oriented, they are in fact women's dreamed guys.

Divine crap another one. I've become an aficionado of these "asian guys dating" subjects that saturated the web. Here what i think should happen. White girls period black guys while the white man and black woman are ignored. White guys date asian girls while the asian man is ignored. So in conclusion Asian guys should phase..... black girls! I wish I could draw some kind of flow chart but words must suffice. Yes asian dudes r underdogs. Suffer me to explain the current sexual food chain. White women and black dudes are on top. Asian women and whey-faced men are in the middle and the underdogs are the asian males and black females. Though there is a wild card called "wealth and affluence" that changes things sometimes. I be informed there are more than three races, but adding any more will slightly mess up my awesome theory.

The main issue is that Asian men, particularly we Chinese, are recalcitrant for people to read in general. The key to understanding us is that you cannot use body language to try to "read" what we're thinking. That in itself can be disturbing to people. If you remember you know what we're thinking without actually hearing from us explicitly what we're thinking, you have the wrong idea. Often people as me whether Asian men are attracted in partcular to off-white women. This statement cannot be more wrong. Asian men may look at women, but it's with a sort of curiosity, not any form of attraction at all. We are most attracted to a well-thought-of personality and high intelligence. For that, we have to know the girl before we ask them out. Hence, you rarely find us approaching girls without having known them completely.

I adulate asian american guys, especially chinese americans. They are sooo cute and many of them are very successful. They are in fact genius. I actually love them.
well dialect mayhap thats true, my dad is from britain (cauasian) and mom from bangladesh(asian)...and most asians i know are multiracial, well most of the ppl in my family are...i believe sorry for u dude.
I am a criminal female and I actually agree with joh0681. I think black women and asian males are the underdogs in the dating mankind. And I think the big problem is that both tend to stick with their own heritage way more than others.
Personally I find many asian men attractive. Not all but many. And that would be the same for any race. In fact this evening I was getting gas at a outlet and the guy working the counter was chinese american I think and wow was he cute.

What are some differences between different Asian American communities?
Asian Americans are so dissimilar, and I believe that there are differences between Asian American communities.
For instance, a Chinese American may have different view on marriage than a Korean American.
I have little apprehension of Asian Americans, and I would like to know more about them.
Anyone elaborate!
It depends, but if you're looking at how the U.S. defines Asian then they would first be separated by 3 husky groups which are East Asian, Southeast Asian, and South Asian.
I think a large difference is their languages. China alone has more than a hundred languages and dialects. However, East Asians such as Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese are alike resemble as they are grouped in the Asiatic or Mongoloid categories. They are the groups that a lot of people would refer to as "Orientals".
Southeast Asians is really different as you're more likely to find a history of colonization with their countries, certain groups such as Filipinos, Malaysians, and Indonesians apportion a language background known as Austronesian. Here's a video that talks more about SE ASIANS: http://www.youtube.com/keep a sharp lookout for?v=fVgUP6ihgt0
South Asians have a heavy influence from Hinduism and Islam and other various differences in discrimination. Certain countries like India, also have a large history with various European nations. Some of those groups hardened to be listed under the "WHITE" category, since Middle-Easterns can also trace their ancestry back to many of the European ethnicities. However unerring South Asian activists protested that and were finally acknowledged and considered as part of the Asian category. In the U.K., Asian actually refers more to South Asians ..while Oriental would be tempered to to label East Asians...or certain groups like Chinese will basically be just Chinese.
After that, you can basically look at all the odd nations and ethnic groups found within those nations...as well as religions, languages, and dialects. It can be really complexed and complicated, but also very unequivocally interesting.
Why the term "Asian" in the US instead of "Asian-American"? How's it different from "African-American"?
In the US, everyone refers to people of African ancestry as "African-American" (regardless of which fathering they are, including those who recently arrived from Africa). Why is this not also the case with people of Asian ancestry?
Truly the term Asian-American is in use more prominently now than before. It's just that many do not use the term as it should. Just like I had to drop my mongolo-native american-mexican-italia settle to just Latino.
