Nowadays there is alot of multinational marriage take place. Love seems don't have any boundaries anymore. Long time ago when the technologies are not so advance, we hardly hear any multinational marriage.
But why did it happen? Does most of us feel that people from other country more atractive than people from our own countries?
I do feel that. Somehow, eventhough my wife is from the same race with me, I found that people from other country more attractive than from my own. Is it because the change of look or just a feeling. But when I heard foreigner, the look at the woman which I regard as average very beautiful.
Is it genetically that human found something different is attractive? How about you? What do you feel?

I'm more attracted to people from my race. People here are like a mixture of races, but I do find myself to other races as well. I think attraction doesn't depend on race, more on the physical upkeep.
A lot of multinational marriages are now possible because of technology. Online dating mail-order brides and grooms, traveling abroad and working abroad. all these made multinational marriages happen

Talking about a mail-order bride, I really think it is a revelation in term of relationship. Although some of the bride us mail-order as a passport to become a resident for the other country to escape their miserable life, most of them really last long and they love each other.
In Malaysia there are more than 10 races living peacefully. And this multi-racial marriage have become normal.

Yeah, sometimes I do get attracted with foreign girls. Perhaps it's because you don't always see them and they look unique compared to your own race who you see all the time. But it always depends on the looks I guess.

Physically, yes. It depends on their facial features, body, and the way they dress. Since media has a role in exposing us to foreigner faces, the more we get exposed in a particular type of foreign beauty, the more we forget to see the beauty from our own race. We can blame it on our genes since falling in love is as fast as 1/5 of a second. You get to be attracted to them at first glance. But then, as time goes by, you get to know their flaws, the attraction will then subside.

Yes, no way I can deny that I definitely find foreign women, specifically women from Japan, China, Taiwan and Korean (especially Japan), to be very attractive compared to women from my own country. I really don't like many women here in the US... I don't know whether it's a good thing or not but all I know is I like Japanese women a heck of a lot more than I like American women.

Japanese and Korean woman are cute. Those chubby look and cute smile make every men melting inside. I'm living in Malaysia so I see a lot of Chinese woman, there are a lot here, and Taiwanese look almost the same as the chinese and that me didn't attract to them much. Korean and Japanese, YES.

Well. Thanks for your question. For me, i never think that being a foreigner is a more attractive compare to other people. One thing i know is you will become attractive to others depending on the way you present your self to others. there are so many things that makes people more attractive just like if you are a smart or intelligent. Not all will be based on the physical appearance it is on how you make you handle your self.

You're right there. For a long term relationship, there is more than just appearance that matters. As a human being, I think it is normal just to attract to something that is different from our daily surrounding. Not that it mean for serious relationship, but just a matter of attraction.

I think the different look makes a difference:) We have been very familiar with our appearance, so the foreigner gives us a new special look and therefore we will find it attractive. Probably it's the same everywhere. People will have difference judgment for the beauty due to different races. Here will think big eyes are attractive. Whereas foreigners may think that small eyes are beautiful. There are many examples like this.
I love China

I don't think being different is immediately attractive. If it's so then we should've been attracted to aliens already. It's more like finding your type. I'm attracted to chinese and japanese girls. There are also ukrainian girls i'm attracted to.

People loves the feeling of having something unique. The people around you are so common that you would like something new. This is where Foreigners are more attractive. This way they are like so many things different that they will surely love to learn more about the other.

I easily get attracted to foreigners too. For some reason I like the skin tone of westerners and I really appreciate how good they look in them. My husband though is totally the opposite and yes we belong to the same race.
When I was younger I could only see myself married to someone from another country. But love knocked and I opened it to someone from my country.

Yeah i do feel like foreigner is more attractive than my own country. It seems human really likes changes. For me i got bored when seeing girls in my country all with the same complexity,height,values,character and others. But when theirs a foreigner with a blond hair, tall and white skin i feel like those girls in my country is no match with that foreigner.
