It's in the stars, isn't it??
Discuss the statement that. I found this on another site (aznlover.com)
"...God's not fair for making Asian guys smaller than other races. I've heard some guy saying that black men are the superior race because they're big, musical, athletic. (I don't think black people are less intelligent. I think all races have equal mental capacity, but the circumstances often determine what people end up becoming). Physically, are asian men inferior? Do asian men excel in certain physical conditions?" . Last edited by AZN; 06-29-2007 at 07:24 PM.. |

I dont think so. It really depends on which environment you grew up on. There might be a lot of small asians, but they are lightning fast!

I think pretty much the same Jade is saying.
I believe it also has to do with diet and exercise (like birkin said). Americans are larger than people in asia because of the way we eat. It does have a little to do with white people being overall bigger but it doesn't help eating McDonalds etc and fast foods all the time which also accounts for us being bigger. Asians are known to be much healthier eaters. I think it keeps them slim as well. |

It's definitely a diet thing. My "little" brother is two inches taller than me. He ate meat growing up and nothing but. If it was green, he didn't touch it. I had my rice and vegetables and seafood.
The average American male is 5'9" but that wasn't always the case. In the sixties, the average was 5'8", and if you look at the stats around the turn of the century, white guys were the same size as Asian guys now. It's not like the human race suddenly became giants, but rather people are eating more and more. I think Asian Americans over the next few generations will catch up with the rest of the population because we're slowing adopting American eating habits. Which isn't always a good thing by the way. |

The tallest man (Yao Ming) in the NBA is Asian. The tallest man in the world (Bao Xishun) is also Asian. The two shortest international action-movie stars (Jet Li and Jackie Chan) are Asian. However, Jet Li and Jackie Chan may have stunted their growth due to intense training during youth (i.e. gymnasts). Diet and genetics are also key players. It really makes no difference, though. The average height of centenarians (people age 100 and over) is closer to five feet than it is six feet. So, if anything, that should even the playing field.

well, in general yes, asian men are smaller than black or white men, however in my opinion they are much more attractive than black or white men. as far as superiority, i do not think size has anything to do with it. inferiority/superority should be based on the individual person and how they act and what they can control. you can't change much about what you were born with, so it is unfair to base human equality on physical characteristics.

Some non- Asian guys just get almost belligerent about height from my experience.
If I'm dating a Non-Asian woman and she tells her friends, relatives, etc etc about me, I would say 9/10 times the first question that pops out of their mouths is, "Oh is he short?" Ok whatever, no big deal. Some of the guys however will take it up a notch upon knowing my height (I'm not that tall, at best above average at 5'11) will usually say to her something like, "Oh, he can probably take me" or "Oh, I can still kick his ass." I mean what the hell, is he planning to wrestle me when we meet for the first time? At times, I get the impression that it's the end of the world for them if an Asian guy can stand eye to eye with them. |
