Is this some biological instinct to ensure gene diversity?

[–] psud@aussie.zone 15 points 10 months ago

Maybe. We should be attracted to people different to us for the healthiest babies

[–] sga@lemmings.world 2 points 10 months ago

it maybe, but i dont think so, most animals dont go out of their ways to breed with same species from far off, especially if the said species forms communities. I think the simpler logic is - boredom - the people you grow up watching everyday become the normal, and if someone new comes, you curiosity gets to it

Asian "grass" is usually darker.

So if having an Asian fetish is called yellow fever in the West, what’s having a Caucasian fetish called in China?

I had a few dates with an asian woman in the US who called herself only half-sarcastically a "Twinkie," which the Internet told me was yellow on the outside and white on the inside. I laughed to be polite not knowing what she meant, but when I learned it made me feel racist by proxy.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Maybe she meant cream filled?

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

what if that was her trying to hint at what she wanted, and they completely missed it
