because they think we are sexy
<< not just because they think your sexy. they don't really have a reason to LIKE someone. Its just like an Asian girl liking an Asian guy, and a white girl liking a white guy.
I believe anyone can like anyone and not have to look at their ethnicity to decide who they like. I'm asian and the only thing I look for in a guy is if they like me for who I am, and I don't need to change to impress him. I don't take into account if he is white, asian, etc. I would like a guy for who he is.
