[Poll #1871357]

i guess because we are toma fans, maybe some of us are more attracted to japanese guys? lol. i guess it might be cool to have a japanese boyfriend... i mean, i know i have zero chance with toma, but if i could have a japanese boyfriend, it would be really nice, since i'm so into japanese stuff. and he could teach me some japanese too, and we could do japanese-ish stuff together! lol. ideally, he would be a japanese guy, but he lives in my city/state (i'm in the usa). not like an exchange student or someone who is only here temporarily and going back to japan later. so that there's not too much cultural difference between us (don't want a guy that grew up in japan and is really traditional or something...) and of course, don't have to deal with a long distance relationship! 

i realize that not everyone lives in an area where there are japanese people, but if you did, would you want a japanese boyfriend, or would you still rather date someone with with your same nationality/race/etc.? i know things might get complicated when considering the cultural differences, language difference (i guess some ppl prefer talking 2 their boyf in their native language), and whether or not your/his parents would be ok with it, but still... (i'm assuming that most of us here are not japanese and do not live in japan, but skip all this if you are japanese/in japan. xD)

lol i answered 'maybe'.. cos i guess at some point, culture clashes are bound to occur... but i think having a japanese friend would be awesome.. but i really don't know if i'd date someone out of my country.. also my parents would not be okay with it cos of 'societal pressure'(it's so awful here that some people actually have divisions within a religion, and also within caste of the same religion.. so inter-religious marriages are also something that doesn't happen too often. Imagine inter-country then XD). If none of these existed, i wouldn't mind dating anyone from anywhere :D that's why 'maybe'. :)

i see... =/ i'm glad i live in the usa, where interacial/inter-religious marriages aren't a big deal. of course, i think it might take some time for my parents to accept a guy that is not vietnamese, but if i really loved that person, we would be able to convince them eventually, i guess...

things are changing now of course.. none of the new generation or even our generation guys believe in such divisions and that's a good thing.. yes, you're right, it's possible to convince parents after some time :)
