Here's the guys's version: • Japanese Men on 'Yello...
What do Japanese girls think of non-Asian guys who only date Asian girls? Do they think Japanese girls are submissive?
At 2:44 the orange taxi transforms into an orange Lambo. Illuminati Confirmed!
lol
Lol I was hoping someone else noticed!
Ahahaha great find! u deserve a free cookie :3
great.eye!
Lmao didn't even notice that
Like a few have pointed out, there's a difference between preference and "yellow fever". Some guys find the typical physical Asian features to be attractive, and that's okay. Just like it's okay to prefer the certain AESTHETICS of one race over another. It becomes a problem when they only want to date the idea of an Asian and not the person itself.
Think I accidentally clicked "cancel". Take two:
Some also seem to get "yellow fever" because they think it's the cure for being burned by someone of their own race (usually a white guy getting burned by a white girl). These types have a chip on their shoulder, they talk up Asian women while talking down about other women. Run if you meet one of these
It's true that some people utterly ignore the person and instead just project a stereotype on them. However "yellow fever" makes it sound like attraction to a girl with Asian features is kinda like an illness, something normal men should not feel. That's a deeply racist concept, and I don't think it's specifically applied to men who have stereotypical ideas about Asian women, but rather generally to disparage WM/AF relationships. (I've never heard it applied to AM/WF relationships, don't know if it occurs there, too.)
It is applied as a negative and yes, it is sometimes falsely applied to any Asian and non-Asian relationship (usually males), but the use seems to be mostly by white people... To keep each other in line? And by Asian women to warn each other. The fetishization of Asian women fostered that image that Asian women are something "to be into" as if it's kinky, like S & M
It should be extremely rare to like the features of only one race. judging by the number of guys who "just happen" to like Oriental features and the heavy stereotypes surrounding Orientals in the West, I'm highly sceptical of any guy who claims he just happens to like the way we look.
Does anybody believe that guy prefers asian girls because of stereotypical behaviour not because of her looks. Does anybody thing looks don't mater for guys? Some just prefer blond hairs, and some round Asian faces...
As a Mexican just back from Mexico, I absolutely LOVED this intro! Thanks!!!
Prefiero el sabor jalapeño en las papas, es simplemente el mejor hahah
Ufff dichoso, experimentaste la feminidad pura
I'm Mexican, Born and raised in the US and I have met guys who aren't Latinos who have told me they only date Latinas or Mexican's. Personally I like that response. It has its pro's. I have met plenty of Latinos who date only white girls so it is nice to hear that there are also other races that only date Latinas. The last guy I met like that didn't tell me he only dated Mexicans but he did say he loved Mexican Women and added me on facebook. I looked at his page and it shows through his posts and pictures that he is only attracted to Latinas (Especially Mexicans) He is Korean so that really surprised me since I had never seen a Korean date another race other than Asian and White.
My brother mostly dates Asian girls which for me is cool since I am so facinated by their cultures. Korean, Japan's and China's culture are all interesting to me. If he married an Asian women I would be happy and would love to learn her native language while also teaching her Spanish.
I myself also am really attracted to Asian Men. I have dated plenty of Latinos and even 2 white guys but now I am trying to only date Asian men since I keep finding them more attractive than my own Nationality.
It is all about preference. Oh and of course personality also matters, I wouldn't date someone who is rude but super attractive.
The girl with the freckles is cuuute!
Her friend, too, tbh.
Yellow Fever alert. weewoooweewoo. We got an infected mosquito on the loose! (pun intended)
Japanese girls with freckles make me melt
You're talking about the girl on the right at 2:15? She is cute but I'm not sure I would call them freckles. Not sure what I would call them. Freckles are all over the face and can't be counted. That's not the case with her.
+lemonlime I outta hit your face in.
I think there are different levels of what can be called "yellow fever."
Some people, for example, find the general features of people from Asia to be attractive (general hair color, eye color, skin tone, height, build, etc.). It's not any different from a person who likes blondes or redheads, tall guys or short guys, athletic bodies or skinny bodies. For this kind of person, the ethnicity is merely the first visual bit of attraction, and any real relationship will develop based on personalities, values, goals, etc. Ethnicity is just one physical element of what he/she seeks in a partner, and that physical element doesn't carry additional intangible expectations about the target of his/her attraction. I think this variation of "yellow fever" is fairly benign. As one of the ladies in the video mentioned, it's just a matter of personal taste.
Another version of "yellow fever" is one based on preconceptions and mis-perceptions. People who suffer from this version are also physically attracted to the ethnic features associated with people from Asia, but are more interested in perceived cultural or personality traits that they expect people from Asia to display. Sometimes, these expectations are not based in reality, but rather from movies, television, novels, or comic books. Yuta touched on one of the common misconceptions in that some people believe that women of Asian descent are "submissive," or at least more submissive than women from other ethnicities. The problem with this type of "yellow fever" is that real people will rarely, if ever, meet these fantasy-based expectations, and that will lead to disappointment and conflict for both parties.
your comment is 100 percent correct. I generally find Asian girls attractive myself from a physical features standpoint. I dated a girl from Japan at my university who actually really liked me first when I wasn't good at getting the hint haha.. but she was beautiful and we got along through compatible personalities. Absolutely no preconceptions in my mind regardless of what race or country she came from. I treated her with respect like I would any girl, and she was my first Asian girlfriend even though I had found Asian girls attractive for some time. sadly things didn't work out in the long run and she moved back to Japan and we stopped dating. regardless of my sob story hahaha, I surely fall into the first category for my personal tastes. but I can't say I would ever exclusively date Asian women, It's hard to explain I guess.
+Jonathan Smith
Lol and his name's Jonathan Smith
Well said.
Good explanation. I agree :)
long long long
"I'm simple and not a smart person, so I would probably just be happy."
This makes me feel sad inside.
I know, oh my god.
Me too...
Ignorance is bliss.
Ignorance is never a good thing, but at least she knows she's ignorant. At least she probably won't run her mouth, thinking she knows everything when in reality she's just irritating. We have enough of those people already.
Lol, I know right. I'm like these types come in all shapes and forms. I don't know anyone who would even think about openly admiting this, but hey I there really are people who just aren't that bright.
The first time I ever heard someone you "Yellow fever" used as a dating preference, I was confused.
I asked "Why would somebody use the name of a deadly disease that killed thousands, to having a fondness for asians?"
I still find that phrase kinda childish... I feel the same about "jungle fever" too.
@Char Char Binks lolno
@Char Char Binks You're an idiot pretending to be a victim if you think it's anti white. Any race can have yellow fever (maybe not East Asians since they don't believe stereotypes about their race). Yellow fever is fetishising East Asian people and believing them to be stereotypical. Having preferences is different.
2:22 this girl literally glows when she smiles.
I think that's the sun buddy.
@@darkencroix6412 uP
She looks just like this one japanese teacher I had in college 😳
Hmmmm… nah 🤣
Buzzfeed: Yellow fever is so yucky and weird!!
Real Japanese women: I don't mind... *giggles*
I have two opinions about it:
If the yellow fever is fuelled by stereotypes, then that person should learn it's simply not the case, but he'll find out after dating some asian women
However, if it's about the looks, language, or anything cultural or biological that actually makes them different that you're attracted to, I don't think there's anything wrong at all. Beauty, both on the inside and outside, is subjective and no matter how I look at it, it can not be discrimination.
If I only like asian girls, would that discriminate the rest of the world?
If I take it one step further: if I only date girls, would that be discrimation to guys?
Or a step back: If I like a specific asian girl, am I discriminating an asian girl i'm not attracted to?
Or even: if I only like girls from any ethnicity except asian, would that be discrimination?
It's simply sexual preference.
Well said!
Post like these restore my faith in people.
I agree. I don't exclusively date east asian girls or want to but I do really find them beautiful and have nice features etc
It's not cause I want some "japanese sex kitten"
No no no. If you find people of a certain race more attractive, then you're a racist! Obviously.
TheAznsenzation good point. I wasn't really thinking of people who would force asian women to fit the stereotype or would tunnelvision on those stereotypes, causing confirmation bias when they actually do listen to you or do bring you coffee when you work.
A relationship in any case is usually 50% giving and 50% taking, but loving the biggest part of both. When the asian woman in the relationship does her 50% of giving, it fits their narrative and it's suddenly them being subordinate. This shallow approach completely throws off the dynamics in a relationship.
This is a topic that's discussed waaaay too little. Not just with asian women, but with gender dynamics in general. It infuriates me because this is very important for a healthy relationship. Be with someone that you want to give to 80% of the time and those 50% given will be more sincere and those 50% she gives will make you feel like you get more than you deserve, but in a good way, not in a guilty way.
Sorry, that was a tangent I felt I needed to bring up.
But another good point you bring up is the difference between 'common ethnic features' and 'overgeneralisation'. That first one is biology, that second one is ignorance and could be actually discriminatory. This is a very important part of why yellow fever is looked down upon. People assume you overgeneralise asians, or even a specific country. The only real way you can keep specific countries apart is by living among them for a while. 'foreign asians' to the country you live will look different from where you live. This is natural. I'm Dutch and I can easily distinguish caucasians from neighbouring countries by facial features, even though an american couldn't.
And in your last paragraph, where you say asian girls already get annoyed when a non-asian guy hits on them: Asians don't assume those things. They come from the same culture so they know better, but they are usually in the far minority in western cities. Even if we assume only 20% of the non-asian men are that shallow, if the population is 10% asian in that town, she'd still run twice as much into shallow non-asian as into an asian so the odds just seem extremely high for them. This doesn't really make sense if you think '80% of the non-asians are still decent people' until you think that those 80% simply wouldn't catcall or do perverted stuff that grabs your attention and disgust. They're a moving background.
You should do it reverse interview on foreigners. Or have both the Japanese and the foreigners answer the same questions as well.
I don't think that would go over well.
+speedforce131 Which one?
Zoroku Zoroark the foreigners. I don't expect them to be honest and even if they were, they'd take offense to the questions.
+speedforce131 Still... Wouldn't it be curious? :(
Zoroku Zoroark sure if you want to see a bunch of guys lie and SJW it up on the screen.
Thanks for this Yuta. It's interesting to see the answers and in someways even more interesting to see how the answers are given. I often think that part of yellow fever is that different cultures have different behavioral norms and that someone from one culture might misinterpret the behavior of someone from another culture.
I read somewhere recently that what people say isn't as important as how they say it. So maybe a part of this is how we intercommunicate with each other and what we think the message is.
Again, thanks.
Can I just say that the couple at 4:45 is so cute! =3 They're holding each other's pinkies lol
well spotted
Or maybe the leaning guy was *special* and the girl was his older sister (bigger but the younger brother) (:
from what I’ve heard, take this with a grain of salt cause I’m not sure of the validity of my source, but from what I’ve heard, holding hands in Japan is seen as like something more, so holding pinkies is a less suggestive and not too forward way of showing affection, because from what I know PDA isn’t nearly as popular in Japan as it is in most western countries
@@sol6955 that makes sense
I didn't notice but now I hate them.
A couple of them said they rather be liked than to be discriminated, I couldn't agree more. Glad Yuta found such open minded women.
if it's the look you're attracted to, it's fine
if it's a stereotype you're attracted to, it's not fine
Thank god. I thought I was just weirdly racist because I thought they were so cute.
Also: I like your avatar. P3 is my favorite RPG.
That's the problem with this world today. No one should feel they are racist just because they have a physical preference for women.
I'm attracted to toasters, but I'm not attracted to the stereotype that all toasters burn toast.
BlackHat9029 I stopped dating toasters two weeks back. I got tired of getting burned.
I disagree. Being attracted to it isn't the problem, the problem is when you start to discriminate and put the stereotype or looks above anything else.
After you *honne and tatemae* video I never know if what they say is really what they think!! Regardless, very interesting and fun video :)
i agree, it would be great to see Yuta ask this question on the web and translate responses from it. no matter the nationality, i think true opinions show up online.
Good idea :)
+Shiomi Rin Well, i think you need to be especially skeptical of what people say online. I don't know if you have heard of the futaba websites like 2 chan and 4 chan, they have very hateful opinions on there, but we all known that most of them are not genuine. Perhaps there is slight truth, but they are almost always blown way out of proportion. You can say anything on here with little to no consequence after all.
lol don't you even tell them about 2 chan... it's the father of 4 chan and the most messed up place ever
+法師喜撰 And on Facebook or Twitter people will say anything to make themselves look good and fit in with the hivemind. Online personas are weird.
As a Westerner the 'submissive' stereotype about asian girls seems very weird to me because I've also heard the exact *opposite* of that stereotype about asian women. I just assume they're both only true to some extent but bogus as a whole.
It's basically only true in the bedroom.
I think it comes strongly from porn, also japanese and korean girls are generally very polite, educated, and nice, which gives off that docile image. But asians like mainland chinese and parts of SE asian act very rude and unruly.
Yes outside of that asian women dominate the houshold.
Part of the misunderstanding is that Asian women are not a monolith. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese women are all very different, IMHO. I think Chinese are closer to American than Japanese are to either.
kinpatu I think all these things only matter in the first phase of a relationship. After you get to know the person and everybody feels comfortable all people are the same and have their own distinct character.
one girl says if you like her you like her! simple as that!
lol such a basic answer but if she dont like you there's a restraining order coming!
+MechRider89 so true!
So simple.... yet such a hard concept for some to grasp.
Yellow fever? Man, I got the yellow plague.
omg 🙅🏻👏🏼😭😂😂
Day 40 of yellow plague. My skin has turned a yellowish hue and i can no longer speak english. My eyes open less by the day.
Last night i bowed to a robot cashier.
It is too late for me. Mark my front door with a white cross, seal all openings and slip a copy of starcraft under my door.
Tell my mother ITADAKIMASU!!!!
Lmso
@@rainmanslim4611 LMFAO
Yellow PLAGUE! Im fucking dead! lol. But yea same.
Anyone else accidentally take "Yellow Fever" literally from a medical standpoint when first seeing the title?
That's usually my response. Some one didn't think this discriminatory name thing through lol
That's actually all I knew yellow fever to be before this video...
Seriously, when I saw the title I thought someone had (medical) yellow fever. I had to take shots to prevent it when going abroad once
yeah!
Yeah been to japan myself, until now I also thought Yellow fever was a reference to the disease. Even though I do have a thing for Japanese girls since I was there now.
it's all about personality for me, but the Japanese language is a major plus for me and all that frequent nodding. it's just toooo adorable
I can relate to women not being happy when being seen as some two dimensional anime stereotype ("moe" or "tsundere" or something silly like that). Also, I've met way too many douchebags who have no idea how to win a woman's heart and harbour this fantasy about a non threatening, meek, eternally smiling Asian girl who will worship their ass. That is just repugnant.
I'm a young guy from northern Europe and I have studied abroad in Tokyo. I would say that the other side of the coin is a lot more extreme. In general, Japanese girls (NOT just "gaijin hunters") REALLY like western guys who are respectful, somewhat handsome and sweet/gentle. A lot (not all of them though) of my male Japanese friends are really shy/awkward around girls, not very good at having conversations with girls and not very gentlemanlike (but they obviously have a lot of other great attributes!). Every single time I went to bars/clubs in Tokyo I always got a ton of attention from girls. This might have a bit to do with my social skills, looks, personality etc. but I don't get anywhere near that much attention in my home country. When I walked around in Tokyo girls would shout "kawaii" all the time etc. My take on this situation is that there are some cultural things about western girls that some (not all) western guys don't like. In the same sense, there are some cultural things about Japanese guys that some (not all) Japanese girls don't like. Personally, I love that Japanese girls are really polite, sweet, considerate and cute (whereas western girls tend to be more in-your-face sexy which I don't like). However, I do find western girls attractive too!
I think very few Japanese girls are aware of just how obsessed some of the western men are. They would be disgusted.
Except gold diggers but eh...
very true
It's pathetic. Anybody who generally only wants one type of partner in any sense, is pathetic. Nationality, color, language, height, it's completely shallow and unintelligent
Do you realize how judgemental your comment sounds? Western men aren't obsessed with Asian women. Some guys might be, just as some guys are gay, some guys have a preference for for blondes.
Would you describe those guys disgustingly obsessed, because they like a certain physical type? Snap out of it, please.
@@macvena there's a difference between a mild preference of hair or eye color to an entire fetishized view of a nation/peoples. It makes you come off as a fucking creep and any american asian girl will you tell that.
The girl with the pair of triple freckles
I knowwww
I'd fly to Japan just to talk to her.. good lord..!
Kawaii !!!! 😍
you have her, i'll take her friend, deal?!! She is understated class, the type i'm looking for :P
y'all are fucking creepy
since I know you're such a fair man Yuta. I can expect to see a video about gaijin hunters next right? Since yellow fever is basically the opposite side of that same coin.
+Perplexist that's actually going to be the next video :)
+That Japanese Man Yuta Awesome. I see too many people go off about yellow fever but you'll be the first to cover that as far as fairness.
They usually do. They tend to hang out in the same places, try any British bar in Tokyo on a weekend!
Unfortunately, it doesn't really solve the problem, as both parties enter the relationship with unrealistic expectations of one another and as a result they rarely last long!
What a "yellow fever" guy often fails to realise is that a Japanese girl who is willing to approach a foreign guy in a bar is likely very different to the Western idea of a stereotypical Japanese girl. The girl making the approach in itself is pretty unconventional in Japan.
+flyingroses Exactly. The women often go in as blind as the man. Perhaps more so, as the western gentlemen stereotype is still widely believed. When in reality, if that's what they want, they'd likely have more luck with a Japanese guy!
Once the honeymoon period is over, and the cultural differences start to show, it doesn't take long for a foreigner/japanese relationship to deteriorate. Especially if it was born out of false expectations. Used to live over there myself and saw it many times.
Haven't you seen those 'gaijin hunter' rants? There are plenty of videos.
Personally, liking the certain features that go along with a race (ethnicity) is ok. Just biological attraction. That is not affecting friendships or treatment of others very much. But many races have certain aesthetics that are cute if shown off right. This goes for both genders. One might be attracted to one, while another is attracted to another's body. It would not be fair to force someone to be with another they are not sexually attracted to. Any gender, of any ethnicity, can be very attractive, provided that their body is healthy. An unhealthy body is not very likely to be attractive. Simple biology. (By unhealthy, I am talking about if in general, like if someone is obese or starved. Not if one has a flu or some illness or health problem that is non aesthetically impairing. ). I am just being logical and practical here, but this is also to say that each human has different biological preferences. It is simple biology and nothing to be ashamed of. Just the passing on of genetics, and the forming of intimate bonds, with one another.
i'm very impressed with this video AND with the level of discourse in the comments section! you've all made me a happier person today. thanks!
This video is the epitome of american weaboo culture. Unfortunately it sort of gives those people a hope that they will get the girl of their dreams if they keep wearing their naruto headbands and eating sushi.
It doesn't matter what you do. People in general are attracted to confident people. If that's what makes them confident, they will be successful. Contrary to popular belief, running with the crowd does not instantaneously increase your success rate in terms of dating.
I do not like sushi. Of course I do not like ceviche either. I prefer the Mongolians women over Korean, Japanese, Chinese and SE Asia Meat eaters and not rice eaters.
@Rich 91 think about it.. Running with the crowd makes you boring as hell
Nobody thinks this but you.
@@emmett1902 actually from personal experience it works. Especially in Japan. And getting a girlfriend in Japan is not hard if you can speak Japanese. But even if you can't you will likely attract many. The question is, are they your type as well? If you are more picky then it might get tougher as the cutesy girls only really speak Japanese.
...i think Asian gals are pretty..so sue me..
WHO DOESN'T?
Which part of Asia? You might as well say I find women attractive.
you do realise asia is a continent and not a country right
Alexander Hell ...yeah yeah....right nrxt 2 europe...
Greg Miller that makes quite a wide variety of women eh
as an Asian I hate that term yellow fever, as if someone with a fever/disease that would love Asians, like we can't be loved by normal healthy guys.
Yellow fever specifically refers to an unhealthy, stereotype driven attraction to Orientals. Normal healthy people don't usually date people based on race.
Let me correct you. You never call an Asian 'oriental' 'oriental/s' are referred to the culture such as oriental music, art, or fashion. You should apologize to lily for trying to sound intellectual but ended up offending her. LOL@ "orientals"
+dot agree with you but no one uses oriental as a term to describe asians. honestly as an asian sometimes oriental is more offensive than alot of other slurs. rugs are oriental not people
its called fever because when you have a fever you get hot, so that means that asians make you hot, has nothing to do with being sick, its just a term that stuck dont take it so seriously.
Harry Mason I'm Oriental and the word is only considered offensive in America. Oriental can refer to people as well as objects. The idea that it can only refer to objects is a grievance mongering attempt by SJWs. Don't get me wrong., I agree with a lot of SJ opinions but they do tend to hike up the victim mentality.
That one girl who was like "NO." to the submissive stereotype was hilarious. She was proving it wrong right there.
I get the feeling the yellow fever was lost in translation.
Lmao Asian women know what yellow fever is, we just call it by other terms. Sounds like none of you have ever spoken to actual Asian women before, especially the dude screaming about liberalism and toxic feminism or whatever. This has nothing to do with either of those, it has everything to do with how we feel fetishized.
@Notre Aira Considering the type of comment he left he very likely doesn't look at replies cause it would take away from his anti liberal campaign across the internet.
Every group has something different from them in terms of appearance and culture.
people have preferences and that's perfectly fine. just don't be creepy about it.
I would say the term "yellow fever" is stigmatising persons who have an esthetic preference towards Asian people. This preference could have it's root in the visual differences, but can also be derived from a certain type of personality Asian societies are more likely to form in its members.
So beyond the easy explanation that the "yellow fever" patient likes the looks of the typical Asian visual features we can have a deeper reason. Many westerners fall in love with Asian cultures and especially the Japanese culture aside of it being exotic to them it upholds virtues the West once had but often doesn't live up to anymore (,that is how I see it). The coexistence of tradition and innovation in the Japanese society breeds - in my opinion - particularly interesting personalities.
Many Japanese women Probably wouldn't think of this reason by their own, because when you are so used to your culture you tend to take it for granted and don't think about it as much as an outsider probably would (generalisation, I am aware there are exceptions).
And I end with what I said a couple of times when such a phenomenon was the topic of discussion: Sexual and romantic preferences are rarely racist.
Asian women want to fall in love. In the west, love is becoming more and more stigmatized as anti-feminist.
And there is academic proof that most of the worlds men have "yellow fever."
Who wouldn't to date them?
Everyone talks about "yellow fever" but nobody talks about "white fever". It's asian women who love white men more than white men want them
EXACTLY BRU
Japanese women are so down to earth and warmhearted. I love them so much.
This strikes home a little bit for me. I dated black girls, white girls, hispanic girls over the course of my life. but 3 years back i decided to start learning Japanese (one of those things i've always wanted to do). I have always had what one might call "yellow fever" in the sense i usually think an asian woman is more attractive to me than other women.
but since i started learning Japanese, I only dated or even paid much attention to asian women.
it wasn't because I thought they were submissive (primarily because i had read a couple of books on Japanese culture past and present and learned about how the Japanese wife is basically in control of everything and the husband is just the work horse).
I just prefered asian women, and wanted to have someone to help me learn the language.
or course I missed the mark ever so slightly since I ended up dating a Chinese woman, and marrying her.
She's the best, so i have no regrets. But technically you could say it was a result of yellow fever. I only think certain people look upon it negatively. Nothing wrong with liking who you like, right?
it is perfectly natural to have a preference. If you prefer one thing, by extension you like other things less. Every single person in the world discriminates for one reason or another. You discriminate every time you make a choice. It is not possible to like all things the same amount.
The tall woman made me frown a little when she didn’t consider herself smart, I found her to be the most interesting of the women questioned. I hope she found some faith in her intelligence, it’s a great thing to have.
Socrates and Montaigne disagree with you.
I would love to see Japanese people react to anime style non Japanese shows like Avatar and RWBY.
this is an adult people not a kids in here, animes is for kids and youth adults, no one older adult to watch animes very much.
WorldCarTuningFans258 and AZN Music Clearly you're a troll. If not, you're a fucking idiot. Anime is not just for kids. There's anime for mature audiences as well. Just doing some research will prove your backwards ass logic wrong.
I actually think adult people in the future will watch much more anyme than nowadays because well, as you said, kids and youth adults watch it.
Hey man. Don't let trolls ruin your day. I hated anime as a kid. It was not until I started studying Japanese that I began actually watching it. I fell in love with Kokoro Connect, Erased, and my favorite, Attack on Titan. Be yourself, and don't let other people push you into anger. It is not worth it man.
What if the question was a Japanese guy said they only date foreign girls?
I will say that for me I don't think I have anything like "Yellow Fever" or the like, if I think someone is cool the race doesn't really matter, but I also have skin colours I don't like, it is more about where I grew up and the demographics of my region, I personally think that really dark skin is unappealing, but that is because where I grew up in there were not many people with really dark skin, at most light dark skin, but yeah it is about what I grew up with around me.
I personally think that Asian Women in general tend to rank higher in terms of raw attractiveness for me, I just like their facial features, also since I am a tall guy even were I live, I am used to liking smaller women than me, since most tend to be shorter than me, it is a combinations of factors that make me think of of Asian women as more attractive than people of my own racial background, but it is not an exclusive thing, I think about atrractiveness from a first contact sort of way.
And anyways saying you only date people from a certain racial is not racist, I mean afterall dating is a personal choice by both parties, it is not like you are being discriminated by a guy not wanting to date you, it is not like a violation of civil liberties, it can just be that the person thinks of a race as more attractive than any other and wants to have a partner who he likes physically and personally, but if you are dating someone only for their appearence it is wrong to date that way, sure you can date people of a specific racial group all you want and date within that race until you find someone you truly like, afterall even if you only date within a certain race, as long as you care about the personality and the person you date I see nothing wrong.
Hey Yuta, do you think you could make a video interviewing Japanese people about their preferences in Western media like movies and TV shows?

God bless that one girl who was questioning yellow fever and why ppl shouldn't base their interest solely on race. She knew that it was discriminatory and she's awesome for not going with the flow of her peers.
I do love the oriental beauty and nature of asian woman but what I like mostly is many of them seem to have a beautiful soul - that`s just amazing
Besides the pervs, its a compliment in my opinion. It just means they have a preference and think they are beautiful. There's nothing wrong with finding more beauty in one thing over another.
I like short women with long hair. I like Asian women because many of them fit this category. But I don't ONLY date Asian women. I think there are problems, specifically culture and language, that need to be overcome in these types of relationships. It helps if you live in their country for a long time and speak their language.
that tall girl was awesome.
I don't really have "yellow fever," but really have to admit that a lot of these girls are adorably cute. Like as they're really pleasant to be around.
Roman Sochacki Asian kids are cute too. I laugh when I see them.
I have "yellow fever", however I'm married to a white person. It's a physical aesthetic preference in my case-- I can't control my attraction. I doubt there's many people who're solely attracted towards social stereotypes; therefore, most people who would exclusively date Asian women, probably do so because they're also genuinely attracted to them. Nobody should be in the business of ridiculing others for their sexual preferences.
yellow fever usually describes men, i dont think you have it.
you'll be suprised, the idea of an asian women can often drive attraction. not like.oh long black hair and typical features but socially perpetuated stereotypes. with the popularity of kpop and kdramas it's gotten worse
+Christopher Tso women definitely can have yellow fever, non asian kpop fans... it's outrageous
Sounds like you're pretty reasonable.
Before I take a seat, I must say these girls are adorable "Only judge me based on my personality" aww!
I actually grew up in a mainly Asian community and so at school I've always been much more comfortable with Asians as well as their families. Also while being part Asian( although I look completely white), I'm more comfortable with asian style of communication. Because of this I feel like I have "Yellow Fever*.
I think for a lot of Asians, yellow fever is a negative term. Around the time I started dating my current girl friend, who is from Japan, I found out that there were tons of rumors that had been spread against me by senior, who were also in the Japanese Language Major. She told me about what she had heard, and I had no idea. A couple of my Korean friends confirmed that the rumor was pretty big among the foreigners. I found the people with in my major who started the rumor, and I confronted them, but there was no justice to be had. I had to out grow the rumor by distancing myself from the foreign community at my university for a period of time. I can warn anyone who wants to be taken seriously by Asians who come from another country, be careful how you present yourself, because if they believe that you have yellow fever, rumors will spread like wild fire. Now that i have out grown that term, I have reestablished my relationship with the foreign community at my school, but I am extremely careful with how I present myself. My girl friend supported me through that difficult time, even after she went back to Japan, and we plan on meeting up in my year study abroad in Japan.
I said it on the last video about this, but i'll say it again. I think there are people in the comments that are confused about what tehy have.
Some of you are just attracted to asians. Or your find them to be the prettiest, or you love their culture of wherever they're from or something. Thats not yellow fever. The fever is the obsession and total disregard of the person for who they are and more what they are. Imagine a trophy wife. No one wants to be a solely a trophy wife. Well, thats kinda what an asian gf is for a dude with the fever.
If your preference is asian, then thats what it is, you like asians. But don't tell people you have the fever if you actually give a shit about the individuals.
And jungle fever is the same. I mean...if you can even say that, then clearly theres something wrong with you, lol.
Das all. I feel like this is the same as ppl who casually watch Anime and then call themselves "Otaku" as if they know what thats all about. I wonder if its just people desire to have a title or fit into a special group or club? Even if the reality is, they're nothing like what they claim to be.
Complicated discussion here. I like brunettes, so i have a predilection towards Mediterranean Arabic, or Asian women. My wife is Asian, and i prefer that cause i'm a very curious individual who travels a lot, so the difference in culture is more interesting to me, and makes it a richer experience. So from that point of view, i would choose generally Asian. She also likes me for my nordic culture and customs. How is that wrong? We fits....
I saw more anime and asian movies since i'm with her than the rest of my life...i'm slowly converting, and find it very fascinating. Sometimes stereotypes work, and doesn't affect anyone else.
Wow what a rant !
😆
Sumimasen Soshite Arigato Gozaimasu Sensei and all the people that shared and helped make this video !

I think yellow fever doesn't apply to just skin color, but to personality as well. Every race has its own culture and I think a lot of guys are attracted to Asian women as a whole, not just appearance. I am not attracted to one race over another (although I love red heads, so maybe I have a little bias) but Ive dated a Japanese girl and it was amazing even though it did not work out. I think culture has as much to do with the attraction as appearance.
Liking someone purely because of their race is a disgusting quality people have adopted. Nobody should be a trophy or a fetish.
What happened to getting to know someone and establishing a friendship/relationship?
Well then that would be the blame of both the white for lying and the Asian for not seeing what was going on......many are aware of the concept. So I am sure they would know what to watch for.
How is that any different from liking someone based on sex?
The girl at 2:26 has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.
I find it weird how society muscles in on people's sexual preferences now. Like, what's inherently wrong with someone only being attracted to Asian women? Maybe they like their cultural values and physical appearance - and by targeting people who (most likely) share these qualities it's only prudent.
Personally, I don't really understand the concept of targeting one race's women. Simply seems like you could be missing out on someone really great without knowing it - but at the same time....
The world doesn't move to the beat of just one drum,
what might be right for many, may not be right for some,
you'll have yours and I'll have mine, and together we'll be fine,
it takes different strokes to move the world
Great video though, certainly thought provoking.
You said it yourself. You lumped all Asian people together and said their cultural values and physical appearance are the same, or at least very similar, and that simply isn't true.
flinx No I didn't. But to imply that people who share similarities don't share similarities is a farse. There's a reason the brain categorizes. The Asia pacific region is one of the most historically and culturally diverse in the world. Which each of it's nations and states holding their own traditions.
Explain how you can say "the Asia pacific region is one of the most culturally diverse", and also say "what's inherently wrong with someone only being attracted to Asian women? Maybe they like their cultural values"?
sexual preference is unique and subjective. I am just not sexually attracted to black women. Idk why. probably their hair.
Talon Du Couteau Hey look everyone we found the unapologetic racist.
Very cool. Everyone has their own taste. Some like 'em tall and dark, some short and light, some like men, some like women. It's not really about "race" but what features you find attractive and maybe what culture you feel comfortable in. It might not be the same as the way you look or the culture you were raised in. The thing is, you can't always choose what you like, it's just the way you are so if you've got any kind of "fever" go ahead and embrace it!
Great video!!!! I have been on this kick lately of watching videos of people from other countries sharing their thoughts and views on multicultural-national issues. The more of them I watch the more I realize that no matter what part of the world we come from...we are EXACTLY the same in our views of what really matters. Thank you. We need a lot more of this. The women in this video are half a world away and yet could really be the girls next door from me. I salute you sir.
Nice comment.
I imagine how they feel about "yellow fever" would vary significantly on how attractive the guy was.
The reaction of the young lady at 3:34 is perfect!! She's asked about Asian women being submissive (stereotype) and she responds about women walking behind men. Then asked if she does that personally. She avoids answering, but her eyes clearly say "Hell NO!!"
I worked with a guy back in '85 who would date only Asian ladies. However, those ladies were assertive, not submissive.
sidebar: I lived in Yokohama and Yokosuka from '68 to '70; I was an American high school student. When I rode the trains and buses, I noticed the Japanese girl students tended to be a bit shy. From this video, it appears the ladies have become more assertive in the past 40+ years. Then, again, in '68, the effects of the war (only 30 years prior) still lingered a bit concerning interaction with gaijin. (to my fellow westerners, "gaijin" means foreigner or animal--a holdover from Adm Perry sailing into Tokyo harbor.)
The girls at 3:18 can speak for themselves. Chinese women are not submissive and the practice of walking behind men went out early last century.
Make sure she isn't crazy. The first asian crush I had was fucking insane and I didn't realize it because culture differences. Thank fuck she didn't like me. But she got me learning Chinese. Now I have a degree and am fluent so that is some good.
+Severian Wintermute Why was she insane?
One thing I've learned is that people take on different personalities when they speak another language. I do it as well when I speak Chinese. I become my Chinese self. So, make sure you see what her personality is like when she is with her Chinese friends and family in a Chinese speaking environment. This is critical. I've date a number of Chinese girls. You have to be comfortable knowing that even if you speak the language, some ten year old dipshit kid will be able to speak to your girl better than you will most of the time. that can be fucking frustrating. And even here in America, and even if her English is perfect, she will always be Chinese at heart and you need to be comfortable with the culture and spend time doing Chinese cultural things. Best of luck.
So you're saying that those Japanese women are wrong about the overall perception of their own culture?
(not being sarcastic)
I guess I could say I tend to find Asian women's looks to be really attractive and such. But I think women from all races and countries can be really attractive, Arab, Italian, Turkish, Russian, Mexican, Brazilian, British, African... black, white, hispanic, middle eastern, asian... everyone. But I have OCD and for some reason I obsess about Asian women, I guess since I was mostly interested in Asian women before I met my girlfriend.
I actually gave up on dating an Asian-American girl I liked because she was ignoring me and being really distant and then my girlfriend came along and showed me love and kindness and we just hit it off. And then after that the Asian girl I used to like (we were never even dating officially and we barely talked at this point) starting getting really pissed at me when she found out I had met someone else. So it's like she was being super-distant until she saw I was with someone else and then she started getting all jealous and saying shit like "I know you still want me" and calling me names and just being generally very angry so I blocked her ass.
A word to the wise, just like in the video, Asian girls aren't really submissive, it depends on the person. I asked out the girl I eventually gave up on one night because she was saying I hated her and just doubting my feelings for her, so dumbass me I decided to ask her out even though I knew it was too soon and she rejected me and started saying she needed time and lots of other excuses and then she went to play League with some Asian dude who she liked playing with because she wanted to rank up or some shit. And after that we kinda stopped talking at all where we used to talk every night. And the mistake was on me, but she was doubting my feelings for her, so by asking her out I wanted to show her that I was really into her at the time.
Now, I'm not trying to say Asian girls are bad in general or anything, I talked to other Asian girls before her who were a lot more chill, things just got really complicated with her.
Anyway, so it's like, my girlfriend is from Brazil and she's of mixed Turkish-Italian-Moroccan ancestry. And I love her to death and she's totally adorable and gorgeous af. But it's like I can't escape from my past, and I keep forcing myself to think about how I used to be into Asian girls a lot and so I should be with an Asian girl instead because of this. And honestly it's painful as fuck because I know I love my girlfriend but I keep having unwanted thoughts that I should be with an Asian girl for no good reason other than that I used to be really attracted to Asian women. Having OCD and the unwanted bad thoughts that come with it is just hell, lol. It's like you love someone and another part of you just wants to destroy everything you have.
Personality is important but you always need to be attracted to the person so if typical asian looks (petite & dark hair) are what you're attracted to than that's what you go for. It's far less common now but traditionally people in the USA had the opposite preference & strictly enforced it. I remember when I was in high school (late 90's) an asian girl liked me but we never really dated because her parents wouldn't approve of her dating a white/non-asian man.
The reason you found the male answers more interesting comes down to one of the many biological differences associated with gender. In this case, tribal loyalty.
A womans loyalty is saved for her children, not for her race so to say.
How about you ask them, what if people would only date exclusively japanese girls because of anime.
Japanese girls don't like otaku.
日本人勉強中です which is why 99% of the commenters are full blown retards
This can work to their advantage abroad though. I had Japanese friends when I was in London who were very popular with guys, but struggled to find a boyfriend back in Japan.
I really couldn't date someone who needs me to be in the lead. My (Japanese) wife and I are both strong-willed people, and it works very well. I want a partner, not an assistant.
"The beauty of walking one step behind men" I couldn't have described it better myself.

i think looking down on yellow fevernd jungle fever etc. is stupid. Everyone has preferences on what race they think is most attractive to least attractive. Same with body type. Saying its discriminatory that someone only dates one race is stupid. that person just finds that race the most appealing. Thats like me saying to a straight person, youre discriminating against men cuz you only date women.
Lol sexuality and preference to race are way different. You can't change what gender you're attracted to but having a racial prejudice when looking for a SO is wrong. You date one race but won't date another because they are that certain race. It is a preference but it's also being prejudice and a bit racist lol
but racial preference is most of the time based on racist stereotypes
I don't think anyone said anything about not dating someone *because* of their race. Different men are open to different amounts of dating opportunities. Some would date the majority of women whereas some only chase after their preferences, has nothing to do with racism. You know, unless the person actually is racist then it's a different matter.
It's like saying it's bad to like chocolate ice cream more than vanilla. The vanilla is tasty to some people but to some the chocolate is superior. Same goes for types of pussy.
How about the "lesbian" (lol) transwomen who said they are being discriminated when biological women who are lesbian won't date them. If you don't know what I am talking about you can check "lesbian" (lmao) transwomen community.
girl with the blue sweater gave great answers!! tell her I said Arigatoo!
I'm 1/4 Japanese, 3/4 Native American and frequently mistaken for full Asian due to Native American essentially being the same phenotype as Asian (though a bit diluted these days). Culturally, I'm more 1/2 Japanese, 1/2 Native American because I was born and raised in Japan. After 9th grade, my mother moved back to her reservation in America and took me with her.
I find it creepy when someone is concerned about dating me because of them perceiving me as Asian. If their idea of complimenting me is calling me "Asian" or drawing attention to my Asian attributes, I want nothing to do with them. The reason is because their focus is on my heritage and ethnicity, not on me as a person.
are you tan skin just wondering
Beats0nDeck I'm normally alabaster because I normally avoid the sun like the plague. However when I don't avoid the sun, I end up with what you would expect out of Asian skin...
Also, I can't find makeup in my shade because while I can buy the alabaster or ivory foundations at makeup stores, it's always too pink for my skin. So I end up looking like a pale Asian trying wearing makeup for caucasians. The palest makeup for Asian skins is many shades too dark for me, so I end up looking like a Ganguro girl who can't afford the white makeup to look even more gaudy.
That said, my eyes are also half way between Asian and Western. I have the Asian hooded eyes but also a more pronounced brow ridge like westerners have... So my face tends to also confuse the hell out of people at times.
maybe. just maybe. they are simply just curious about you and ethnicity is a characterization of you.
Charles Lam
Nonono, I'm talking about a guy approaches me and the first thing out of his mouth is "I love Asian chicks". And he just won't shut up about me being Asian.
I try to deflect the conversation away from that, and he nods and eventually goes "I just get lost in your Asian eyes." and nearly any time he mentions a physical attribute of mine, he prefaces it with "asian".
I'm not saying he's racist, I'm saying he's creepy and is not at all concerned with who I am as a person. If I had sex with him, I wouldn't be "Jenny" I'd be "that Asian chick"... I doubt such a person would even remember me telling him about the fact that I'm more Native American than anything.
Hell, Native Americans don't even exist. We were all killed off at the Battle of Little Big Horn.
Jenny Tokumei ohhh ok because the philippines came to mind when you said asian and native american although thats probably not philippian lol i went to school with this girl and she has eyes somewhat very similar to asians and tan skin same shade like an indigenous american
If someone is chatting you up because they think you're a doormat... run. Run far away.
Some of us just can't help being very attracted to Japanese women.
But for me it's not *just* about looks, no matter how good someone looks to me, i'd still have to be attracted to the person(ality).
Great Video as per usual!
He watches it in double speed :P
But it is possible to make comments while you watch, and maybe he liked what he had seen so far?
I think they didn't really understand your question.
They are thinking "what if you like a person, but that person is another race from you. Is it ok?"
What you really want to ask is "Is it OK to specifically target a race? What are the motivations behind this targeting?"
As I said in the video, that question was very hard to explain to them. I think normal Japanese people almost never have to think about their 'race' so those questions must be pretty hard to understand.
You're over-emphasizing that though. The question really is, "would you date a non-Asian guy who prefers Asians?" and you could tell by their answers that they got the gist of it. They're actually saying that is'nt a turn-off so long as the guy meets their standards. You're actually wanting to make the "guy" seem somehow ominous and thus manipulate the response. Of course, if you ask a Nihonjin girl if she wants to date some sort of wacked-out pervert, she'll say "no."
I actually think you did get across and the girls were being diplomatic and open-minded. The question may be hard but you're dealing with computer-savvy, globally-aware young women who get why the question matters. Well done!
In general, I hate that whole range of questions. No one ever asks if it is okay for someone of race or ethnicity X to exclusively date race or ethnicity X; it is always race or ethnicity Y. Implicit in the question is the assumption that group X must relate to group X and there is something inherently wrong with an interest in group Y. I'm an American of Scotts, French, and German ancestry, my wife is a native of Korea. So what? We've managed to get along through 32 years of marriage.
To me it's about personal taste. I have dated white girls but asian girls are just generally more attractive to me. It's not about submissiveness since I personally hate that personality type. Also I never even heard of that stereotype associated with yellow fever until people started posting videos like this.
to me it's odd to have an excusive preference
Baby G YES
Yeah, like sexual preference.
When I was in the military in Japan I dated a few girls. They would walk behind me, made it hard to carry on a conversation. I found a beautiful Japanese girl and we ended up getting married. That was 39 years ago, will be 40 in October. I guess I have the fever!
In my area it is a disease that is transmitted by an infected mosquito. It affects the liver and makes an infected person turn yellow. It was very fatal and caused epidemics.
The most common answer in these kinds of questions I find is, “If they’re a good person, and like me for me, it doesn’t matter.”
To be honest, I think that’s a very healthy answer.
I’ve dated girls who said they only like white guys. But if they liked me for more than just the fact that I was white, then it didn’t matter to me.
Everyone has preferences, and who knows where those preferences come from? It doesn’t matter, really. If two decent people fall in love with each other, I think this is a good and healthy thing.
I have my own preferences, and every girl or guy I’ve ever known has theirs; we are products of our environments quite often, and what we love is what we love. I think it’s sad that these things sometimes have negative connotations.
But that’s just me!
"Why Asian?" she asks. lol look in the mirror lady, you're freaking beautiful!
Yep you definitely have yellow fever

Thank you bcos i am Asian.
Yes
As always interesting video content!
I think another question that would have warranted some amusing or enlightening answers would have been "Have you had any experience / been approached by someone they suspected (or admittedly) had yellow fever?"
Yuta- I noticed when you asked that last question with both guys in your last video and girls there was confusion. The way you phrased it with those last two girls on the street at night seemed to work and lessen confusion.
Thanks for the vids and emails!
I've had "yellow fever" ever since I can remember.
haha oh word
kenway leviathian no joke haha even learned how to do origami. I was only 8 years old. I don't exclusively date Asians though. I just find them to be the most beautiful.
+Thomas2488 no judge just asking lol
I wouldn't classify that as yellow fever
+Thomas2488 they definitely are the most beautiful.
Yuta, I feel you phrased the questions to elicit an answer that might reflect your own opinion.
What if you phrased the question: There are those who use the term "Yellow Fever" in a derisive way, for men who find Asian women the most physically appealing and/or Asian women are more feminine than Western women. That way, it is the people who use the phrase "Yellow Fever" that have the "issue." Those who say "Oh, he has Yellow Fever" are the ones who just assume that a Western man won't take the time to discover the woman's personality and if they have a match between them. You could just easily say, a woman who likes tall men has "Giant Fever" when it is just a general preference. Or, if an Asian man had a general attraction to Scandinavian women; I guess we could mock his preference as, "Snowball Fever." How about men who are attracted to overweight women- is that "Bacon Fever?" Why mock or misrepresent another person's personal preference?
Also, you imply that the poor men who have contracted "Yellow Fever" are also looking for a "submissive woman."
Most men are really looking for a woman who stills knows how to be feminine. Any man who has ever actually been in a committed relationship with an Asian woman will tell that the "submissive woman" does not exist. Just get her angry and POOF the myth of the "submissive woman" disappears before your eyes and there, only a few feet away, stands a dangerous feline predator who's only contemplating one thing - how to hurt you. Run! She can be feminine to a man who expresses his love, respect and appreciation for all she does for you. Twenty-five years ago, I married an Asian woman and we have three children; am I to still be mocked that I have Yellow Fever? ...seriously, good luck with that "submissive" stuff.
I challenge you to redo the video. This time, ask the women how they feel towards THE PERSON WHO MOCKS a man with the derogatory term, "Yellow Fever" just because he has a personal preference for Asian women; he feels they are the most attractive in physical beauty and femininity. You will get a completely different answer. It is the person USING the term Yellow Fever, who is introducing a negative aspect on to another man's general preference. You will discover that Japanese women will be sympathetic to the men who hold them such high regard and not approve of people who use derogatory remarks towards those men. Perhaps, it is you who hold some resentment towards Western men who hope to date Japanese women? Hmmm? Just ask'n.
Richard Flaherty the translations from Japanese to English are not always the best because they never say exactly what the wording means......he asked questions in a way they would understand but simplified the subtitles
I've heard it used in a way as a joke to simply describe one's preference for asian women. To be attracted to certain physical traits is fine, and culture also can be a trait that can be particularly attractive.
I love your videos, what an inspiration to peer into dialogues half a world away and meet new ideas about what people think and feel about these interesting subjects.
Love how all the pink bois in the comment section try to make up excuses for their yellow fever, lmao.
Yellow girls have rampant white fever, hope this helps
@@marcus16999 Yup many white worshippers among them, broken little asian girls and racist pinkoid fetishists seem to go well together. Just as white girls and bbc.
Marcus both have fetishes, glad my momma raised me right and I can appreciate Asian men unlike some white worshippers.
I never understood the concept of yellow fever... I for one am very attracted to Asian women. I don't see what the big deal is. Attraction is ALWAYS the first important thing in any relationship... so of course someone is going to look in particular for the type of girl that he is attracted to. Then personality and stuff of course matters but people are lying to themselves if they think that attraction doesn't matter in a relationship. Its possible to have a relationship with someone you are not attracted to but much easier to connect with someone when you are attracted to them. That's why I think the whole concept of yellow fever is stupid. You like who you like. appearance first , then personality. 99% of guys aren't going to be with a girl just because they think they are hot if they cant stand them as a person.
Of course its stupid especially when that attracted is mutual, asian women aren't accused of having white fever. It's basically a tactic by white feminists to demonize white guys who date asian girls.
0:03 as a Mexican, I lost it at that 😂
I generally don't have a problem with this, but my only issue, that oddly enough wasn't mentioned in either video, is when at person only dates someone for being Asian and does not care about who you truly are.
That last question you asked makes me want to go to Japan even more because America is full of people who lose their mind if you say you only date girls who don't have the same skin color as you.
Imagine missing your train to work in Japan and suddenly Yuta pops up and asks what it feels like working in Japan as foreigner.
By the way, you should totally do a video on working foreigners in Japanese companies!
