The Best Places To Find Asian Women
Posted on: August 26, 2009 | By Maigal
Asian Girls Having Fun
A MyHappyFinds reader named John left me this question under Why Asian women date white guys?.
Hi Maigal,
During the past 3 months here in NYC it seems like a phenomenon has taken place out of the blue. On any given weekend day I will spot at least 30 mixed race couples comprised of an Asian woman with a White male. My question to you Maigal is, where are these couples meeting up? I mean are there special clubs or social events taking place here in NYC where they are meeting or is there a special Match.com version where Asian chicks meet White dudes? I happen to be a 30 yr old SWM and have no problem when it comes to dating but I never find myself in a situation to meet an Asian woman and would love the chance to do so. I would appreciate any information you can offer.
Answer:
Hi John,
Thanks for your comment on myhappyfinds.com. I’m not sure where all those couples are meeting up but I can tell you the best places to find Asian women.
Asian Event Reviews – Asia Society
Posted on: July 1, 2009 | By Maigal
Asia Society
725 Park Avenue, NY
Asia Circle Cocktail Evenings at Leo Bar
www.asiasociety.org/support/specialevents/leobar/
The Asia Society holds a cocktail night the first Friday of every month at the Leo Bar, located on the 1st floor of the Asia Society from 6 to 9 pm. The events are touted as networking gatherings where you can also tour the gallery from 7:15 to 7:45 pm. These functions are a nice place to chat and interact with a more refined Asian crowd. This group tends to be more diverse than other Asian gatherings. In general, the individuals who come here are intelligent, working professionals. You will meet a lot of Asians in the finance, accounting, medical and law professions. Usually, a good balance of guys to girls. The vibe is pretty conservative at these events. You’ll fit right in if you enjoy talking about your work history and your career. The crowd can feel a little stuffy, but that comes with the territory when attending a cocktail party. The dress is business casual to business formal as almost everyone here comes directly from the office. There is a cover to attend these events in the range of $10 to $15, which includes a museum admission pass. There is a small cash bar that features moderately-priced beer and cocktails. These events are good for networking, and if you’re on the hunt for a more career-minded man, could be a good destination for you.
Asian Event Reviews – YesYas
Posted on: July 1, 2009 | By Maigal
YesYas
Promoter: Eric Bang
I have been to a few of the Yesyas events, most recently at the Beekman Hotel and Leela. In general, all of Eric’s events will include a cover for both men and women ranging from $5 to $15. Occasionally there will be a short period of time when ladies can get in free, but in general the group charges per head to collect their fees. The drinks at this event are never happy hour price. If you do go, make sure you have enough money to pay for full-price drinks. These events tend to attract a little younger crowd than Oriented and New York Asian Professional, age range 21 to 35 but it also attract a lot more men than women, with the recent gig at Leela probably drawing more than twice as many guys than girls. While some of you ladies out there may think that’s wonderful, unfortunately most of these men were on the shorter side – I would say about 5 foot 7 on average. This group attracts primarily Asian professionals with a wide age range. The only problem I have with this group is that they don’t offer many drink specials. If you are in the mood to have a few drinks and be surrounded by roving groups of men then a Yesyas event would be a good option for you. I will continue to check out their future events, and will provide updates if I feel the crowd dynamics have changed.
