I notice how western men find asian women attractive is very different on how asian men find asian women attractive. western men likes their asian women to have the traditional asian look, as in very eastern appearance just like Lucy Liu. They also want their asian women to look womanly. In asia, most men seemed to prefer their Asian women to have big eyes, smaller face and rather than womanly, they want their girls girlish youthful. in the US,They find Lucy Liu to be very hot. while in asia ,I know there's an actress who looks like lucy liu but she plays comedic roles and she is not portrayed as attractive.

as a woman, i don't know much about this...other than i too, find lucy lui to be attractive as well........but only attractive as a powerful, talented, put together woman. Could you enlighten us "westerners" as to the opposing thoughts.....what do aisian men find attractive about western women?......wondering if that might give a clue as to the differences?

in Asia they like girls with innocent,youthful and virginal face. when it comes to western men. i can see Asian men finding the ones in the cute side over the ones on the sexy side. i do find lucy liu attractive but most Asians here may prefer Jamie Chung over her.

@much2say she gets popular because she is more on the cute side. but in the US, she is the perfect balance of sexy and cute.

pretty agree with your views. the truth is that aethestic standard between west and east is different. but there are some women that combine the two. coco lee, ZiyiZhang so on.

to me asian doesn't mean strictly fair skin with yellow undertones (vs. pink for caucasians), small, slanted eyes and straight hair. there's also all shades of brown, wavy hair and big eyes. conversely, some asians assume caucasians are strictly blond, blue eyed and speak english.

@CaptAlbertWhisker So what do the Philippines think? Our neighbor's nieces from the Phils were visiting and the 13 year old tells me the popular girls are the ones who get their hair "blonded" (if I think that's what she said) - and poor girl wishes so much she weren't Asian.

@much2say eurasian actors and actresses dominates television and movies, but the standard of beauty have some change as filipinos with east asian parentage are getting roles over eurasians.

Emmm,I think it is cultural surroundings.But sometimes I find warrior western woman or man with a touching characteristic and a shining smile can be also attractive to me.Maybe it is not that absolute.
