<p>Just because someone mistakes you for being half white half japanese doesnt mean they thought you were good looking.....leo186um is obviously brainwashed by the American media....u kno, the american media which makes people think that black people with lighter skin is better looking than blacks with darker skin, that asians with western features are better looking than pure looking asians, and that anything that doesn't look western or caucasion is unattractive.....</p>

<p>oh yea by the way, going back to the original topic... the university with the highest percentage of asians in America is the University of Hawaii. the second is UCI.</p>

So a pure Japanese cannot be good-looking?

Never said they cant.</p>

43

<p>you're lying!
there's NO japanese in america.</p>

44

<p>I am one of those rare ones my friend.</p>

45

<p>Well the OP was asking about East coast schools, so quit mentioning west coast (and Pacific) schools.</p>

46

<p>wait whoops.
on my above post, i meant to say that i do agree with flong that there are no in between looking asians</p>

47

<p>Flong is probably white. Haha... white people make me laugh.</p>

<p>I'm 100% korean.</p>

48

<p>There are over 1 billion Asians. Surely you don't mean there are 500 million Asian supermodels and 500 million Asian trolls?</p>

49

<p>uh ***? im korean too. And white people are generally more prone to seeing more asian girls as better looking than seeing them generally at 2 extremes. </p>

<p>I guess you should laugh at urself for incorrectly judging someone you dont even know eh?</p>

50

<p>okay...its an exaggeration.
But, when asians are gorgeous, they are freakin gorgeous. And when they are ugly, they are freakin ugly. There are some in betweens...well most seem to be in betweens, but i dont usually see a semi ugly one, or a semi good looking. Its more like drop dead gorgeous, average, or butt ugly</p>

51

<p>^^ That's basically describing black people for me.</p>

not much asians in america. something like 3 per cent. and many top universities have significant percentage of asians.

<p>Uhh, it's actually more like 4.7% and the % of Asian-Americans who are of college age and who make up the applicant pool is higher.</p>

lol. Depends. Asian girls tend to be cute or pretty freakin ugly. There is no real middle ground with asian girls.

<p>That's not true at all. </p>

<p>For example, take John Cho - some people find him "cute", but he is hardly leading man material.</p>

<p>Or Ming-Na - better than average, but hardly a head-turner.</p>

I have to disagree with flong.</p>

<p>I'm full blooded Chinese. I was even born in China.</p>

<p>I've been told that I look Korean by numerous Koreans and other Chinese. Most of the time people are very surprised that my last name is Wang rather than Kim.

<p>Many Asians can pass for Han Chinese, Manchu, Korean, Japanese, etc.</p>

<p>However, there are Asians who fit the prototype for their ethnicity - Ichiro unmistakenly looks Japanese and Rick Yune has the classic Korean features.</p>

<p>What exactly are "Western features"? So fugly whites don't look "white"?</p>

<p>And high, prominent cheek bones and fuller lips, which many NE Asians have, are generally considered desireable - so does a white person who wants high, prominent cheek bones and fuller lips want to look more "Asian"?</p>

i usually think they are really hot, or either ugly or fat and ugly.</p>

54

<p>yeah..but for white people, i find alot that most white people arent really ugly. They are mostly fairly decent looking and ull have the really hot ones and the really ugly ones and then the fat ones who dont fit into the category since we dont know what the ylook like skinny.</p>

55

<p>yeah, ide say lots of whites look good or decent, probably because there is so much diversity extremes in whites (blond from black, super curly from super straight). Except irish. I dont dig pale skin, freckles and red hair. Dont like those at all</p>

56

<p>ummm Lehigh University and Carnegie Mellon</p>

57

<p>bigtwix, u're tellin me you don't like the firecrotch? you gotta diversify you're interests, i think redhead's are effin' fine dood.</p>

58

<p>just my personal preference. We all have different tastes</p>

<p>LOL, I'm an in between looking asian. <em>Most</em> asians from Japan, Korea and China look similar simply because of geography and migration, while it is <em>generally</em> easier to distinguish southern asians from them, although because China is rather large and more geographically diverse, you will find a handful of Chinese people who look similar to southern asians.</p>

<p>Oh wait................nvm... I'm super hot.</p>

<p>Aside from coloring - Asians are just as diverse with regard to varying skin tones, straight to curly hair, nose shapes, single to double eyelids, etc.</p>
