Can white people tell different traits b/t Asians?

I have this one white friend who told me he was going out with this fine asian girl. But when I saw her she was hideous. I thought it was just him, but I realized most white guys maybe all white people in general cannot distinguish facial characteristics of asians. Look at Lucy Liu she is butt ugly but guys white guys love her.

    I remember my buddy and I was in line next to Halle Berry one day in a 7-11 store. Maybe she is hot in the movies but she did'nt look all that good on that day and she had little mustache. True story, so don't think I would make this up just to make a point. I often find women attractive that many others would not like. Sometimes we may be seeing something in people that the other guy is not paying attention too. You just like what you like and it's no big deal, the important thing is that looks are'nt everything and it should not stop you from dating someone just because they may not be beautiful. I don't think people think Lucy Lui is hot probably just a little above average, she is definately not seen as a sex symbol.

    I'm not entirely sure how to answer your question because obviously white people think some Asians are attractive and others aren't. If you think that the ones found attractive by whites are unattractive, then it sounds like you just have a different opinion about what looks good.

    Everyone has different opinions about who's hot and who's not. Maybe white people as a whole tend to find different kinds of faces attractive than Asians do. I don't know.

    But anyways, the main point is that everyone has their own preference of hotness and notness. Of course white people can tell the differences between Asian's facial traits. But maybe they just find different traits attractive than what you find attractive. That's all.

    I think it depends on the person. There are plenty of Whites that aren't attracted to Asians while others are. Not all White guys like Lucy Liu I can guarantee you that.

    Lucy Liu is ugly if you get close enough. Most Hollywood celebrities are. With the right makeup and lens, you can make most anyone look good.

    As for your friend...

    Did you expect him to tell you he was going out with this butt-ugly Asian girl? How far would that get him?

    "Hey, man! I know she's ugly, but she's great in bed!"
