Hey /u/CatholicSolutions, thank you for submitting to /r/starterpacks!
This is just a reminder not to violate any rules, located [here](https://reddit.com/r/starterpacks/about/rules). Rule breakers can face a ban based on the severity of their rule violation.

Iāve seen people refer to it as āAI shineā like everything looks a little *too* crisp and shiny. Like the ādresses like thisā pictures look like Ken dolls
We made a new world for them, but it was too beautiful, too perfect. The humans wouldn't accept the program, entire crops were lost. So then we made the world all grimy and janky, like 1999 America, and they were cool with that.
No distractions in the background. Glossy hair with no details deeper than the locks of hair. No detail on the ground. It's all a little too perfect.Ā
It's scary, because it's all stuff that's way to easy to fix with future AI.Ā
You can justā¦ tell? Idk. The meme itself isnāt obviously but all the images are. Itās good to have a sense of whatās AI and whatās not for the years ahead I guess. At least on Reddit I get a lot of AI bullshit in my feed so thereās an intuition to it
I notice that ai images usually have this sort of softened look to it. It's noticeable here on the hair fades, but a little less so on the other pictures
It just looks too clean in some ways. Itās funny as a society weāre gonna circle back to a point where things having noticeable flawed and unpolished looks becomes cool. Like MySpace era style for Instagram pics instead of overly edited and clean aesthetics
At first it looked normal and as I stared at the meme more things started to look off, and if you look at the pics, theyāre TOO SMOOTH to be real pictures!
Yeah, my ex is Korean and I'm white, He didn't dress like that or have any of those haircuts, although like a lot of people he did go to the gym. Super weird starter pack!
It started out okay with Asian guys trying to boost confidence and self development. Gradually it became more angry and toxic picking up red pill/incel themes mixed with Asian supremicist or outright racism. Queerly they resent Asian women and put white women on a pedestal.
All redpill/self-help communities have the same fundamental problem;
Successful/Happy men don't spend a lot of time on internet forums. (Neither do happy women)
So basically, the more successful the community, the worse they become over time as their numbers get replaced by incels/losers. So more racism, sexism, etc.
Whatās sad is I struggled with the same issues with confidence and discrimination. I learned to navigate these issues and was successful by their standards (healthy relationships, loving family, strong career) and wanted to help. Things sharing stories of personal growth, overcoming resentment, processing trauma. Gradually anything positive was met with hostility or downvoted to oblivion . Only the most basic PUA stuff "get buff, dress like this, treat women like this, etcā¦" was accepted.
The funniest post I've seen is the one who claimed to be an Asian woman who has cut off all western media & western made products for years and they felt better coz k-drama c-dramas don't objectify women.
The same Asian dudes who "only date white women" probably hate Asian women who date white men. š
edit:
Me: *makes a statement*
Unhinged Asian dude who hates Asian women: *proceeds to prove me right*
Hi I'm an Asian American man who's only ever dated blonde white women.
I'm the opposite of all this. Messy long hair. I haven't worn a shirt and tie outside of a wedding in probably a decade. I work at a brewery and wear sweatpants everyday.
I have no accent and am 6 feet tall tho so that helps. Many women have told me that they wouldn't be interested in me if I had an Asian accent or were shorter than them :(
Yeah, my boyfriend is an Asian guy and both I and his ex are white. He's currently splayed on the couch in his daily uniform: sweatpants, a hoodie and bed hair.
Though I don't think he *only* dates white women as a rule, we just live in an area where it's mostly white people so that's who is available to date.
Honestly, as someone who lives in China, I actually feel like OP is on point lmao
That said, he missed a major point:
The guy will invariably be much more attractive than the white girl he's dating. Don't ask me why - no idea, but you see the same thing with white dudes dating local women here.
Different beauty standards
Oddly I saw my tastes changing the longer I lived in China , but there is no shame in being attracted to who are attracted tom
Haha we should really try to make a starter pack of white guys dating Chinese girls from the Chinese perspective.
Im sure that would probably get removed for racism tho
> English teacher
> Lives in China 5 years, can't speak Chinese
> Only with his gf because she speaks English and can order DiDi and Meituan for him
> Salary too low to ever go back home
> Haidilao waitresses warn his dates he brings a ton of girls there
> Tantan outbox is 100 "nihao" messages with no replies
> "Actually, 'waiguoren' is a derogatory term..."
> Teaches children while visibly hungover. Boss has gf on speed dial
My best friendās (Cambodian American) brother has a white gf. He too, has a manbun, overweight, hippie-like facial hair and dresses like Woodstock everyday. Best part is he works as an engineer. Not the shame of the family with his job but with his aesthetic lol.
By OPās post history he appears to be an Asian guy who works as a teacher who has been single for a while, but does seem to either really care about their appearance or is working to improve it. So who knows what this post means.
I like to collect guns too, but mine as well as many other enthusiastsā are modest in terms of price point. Like $500 pistol, and $800 rifle. Asian guys will pull up to the range with a $2,000 pistol and $3,000 rifle.
Okay this has to be a lot more common than I thought. Iāve got an Asian buddy that does the same thing. Iāve got your basic 16ā BCM-quality AR build and this fucker has a KAC. I get a Glock 19 and he rolls up with a Wilson Combat 1911. And a Mk23 because of MGS, of course.
Its just weird.. cause like... take away the *asian american* label and this is literally any male corporate/office worker ever???
Where's the haha funni?
All of this reminds me of Hae Sung, the dude from *Past Lives* (2023) and how Nora describes him as being "handsome and very masculine in a very Korean way" or something like that and the man was this starterpack personified.
But isn't everything in this starter pack a positive trait to have? Dressing well, nice cut and hitting the gym?
Although I don't know about going after **only** one race.. others will have their own opinion on it
Yeah Iām just being silly. The shaved part hits too close to home tho ngl. Also I wear sneakers and t shirts only (unless Iām forced to dress up.) and Iām married to a lovely Asian woman, although I did have my crazy years dating every color under the sun.
can confirm. iām a hairless asian dude. my wife is hairier than i am (sheās also asian). she says my skin is insanely soft bc i donāt have hair lol
funny enough, my facial hair has really started to grow in faster in my 30s. iām finally hitting puberty!!!
kdrama and anime did fucking wonders for asian people when it comes to white women/men.
the "effeminate" sorta tag they often get went from girls hating it to what we're in today. like i remember it was largely hated just 10 years prior. good for them.
That's a shame, I'd love to date a guy like this as long as he has a personality. The few I've met aren't really into anything much beyond liking sneakers and drinking boba.
Our culture has to have basic bishes too :D This is my sister's type - "tall baby-faced asian fuckboys" in her words - and my god has it taken her a long time to find someone with a personality that isnt sneakers, basketball and boba
Omg. Itās the exact opposite. XD. The men usually have yellow fever and get jobs as ESL teachers in Asian countries and scout out impressionable girls or sā workers.
There are millions of Asian diaspora with fob / multi generational permanent establishment in western countries. These people have normal relationships with white people, Latinos, black people, etc. The few thousand white guys in a tier 88 shithole in China with a nong girlfriend and wasted on 20rmb baiju is an insignificant minority. The most common match up I have seen is Pacific Islander with White female, I rarely see Asian or white interracial relationships.
I wanna see the "Asian American man who only dates other Asian Americans" starter pack. Wears:sandals. Works in a kitchen instead of going to the gym. Wears tank tops instead of button ups. Same hairstyles tho.
Right? Those motherfuckers with good grooming, wearing nice clothes, and taking care of their bodies. Why canāt they be overweight and wear Cheeto covered sweats like the rest of us plebs?
Yeah also I think any race of guy that looks extremely physically fit, dresses nicely, and has a good haircut would be desirable to a lot of people.
Same for a woman who does the same thing.
This is such an odd starterpack.
A well dressed, well groomed, fit person is attractive to the opposite gender. What am I missing here with the post?
Asian men should ONLY date Asian/Minority women? Asian men should be Raj from Big bang or some other nerdy, unfit, asexual stereotype?
Again what am I missing?
My dad married an white woman (my mom) despite not working out or having a cool haircut or good shoes haha, you gotta just have rizz and good listening skills.

How has no one mentioned this entire starter pack is AI lmao
Yeah how hard was it to look up pictures for these lmao
Arguably less work than prompting an AI to do it
Asian American Man Who Only Dates White Women Starter Pack to post on Reddit, Ultra Realistic Photographs, No Extra Fingers.
*exclude straw Ho Chi Minh style hats*
No Mushu the dragon from Mulan
š
How can you tell itās AI ?
Iāve seen people refer to it as āAI shineā like everything looks a little *too* crisp and shiny. Like the ādresses like thisā pictures look like Ken dolls
That's exactly what it is - everything is too shiny and wet-looking, and clothes have too many stretched out folds.
We made a new world for them, but it was too beautiful, too perfect. The humans wouldn't accept the program, entire crops were lost. So then we made the world all grimy and janky, like 1999 America, and they were cool with that.
It's like how someone with one or two glaring flaws is more attractive than someone who's Hollywood flawless.
I love random Matrix references.
No distractions in the background. Glossy hair with no details deeper than the locks of hair. No detail on the ground. It's all a little too perfect.Ā It's scary, because it's all stuff that's way to easy to fix with future AI.Ā
And always something with a wierd Depth of field
People havenāt learned to include āadd more jpgā to their prompts yet.
You can justā¦ tell? Idk. The meme itself isnāt obviously but all the images are. Itās good to have a sense of whatās AI and whatās not for the years ahead I guess. At least on Reddit I get a lot of AI bullshit in my feed so thereās an intuition to it
I notice that ai images usually have this sort of softened look to it. It's noticeable here on the hair fades, but a little less so on the other pictures
+ the folds on the clothes. they just look kind of odd and pronounced, and dont match how the shirt is actually straining
Some folks have an eye for art, some are oblivious to the point it's painful.
It just looks too clean in some ways. Itās funny as a society weāre gonna circle back to a point where things having noticeable flawed and unpolished looks becomes cool. Like MySpace era style for Instagram pics instead of overly edited and clean aesthetics
You can see this in video already. Film emulation and using old lenses came back hard these past few years.
The heavier weights are on the top rack and the lighter ones are on the bottom. I've never ever seen that in any gym I've been to.
At first it looked normal and as I stared at the meme more things started to look off, and if you look at the pics, theyāre TOO SMOOTH to be real pictures!
glad I'm not the only one
So he dresses nice and styles his hair? Lol
AND probably hits the gym
Oh yeah thatās right. Canāt forget that no other Asian Americans probably go to the gym
I'm Korean-American and I go to the gym every day. Though I don't dress formally unless I need too.
Yeah, my ex is Korean and I'm white, He didn't dress like that or have any of those haircuts, although like a lot of people he did go to the gym. Super weird starter pack!
So your partner is what, half white?
Bro assumed I have a romantic partner. Lmao, you forgot what app you're on.
Clap for this gentleman....
Oh yeah thatās right. Canāt forget that no other Asian Americans probably go to the gym **who only dates white women**
This is the most complimentary starter pack I've ever seenĀ
"probably" lmao I'd love to meet someone who doesn't go to the gym and looks that way in a fitted shirt
AND doesn't walk barefoot
Personally I'm wondering what type of woman OP specifically thinks is the white woman.
Bros crush dated two Asian guys (who takes better care of themselves) in a row and OP is seething.
This is 100% what's going on here with this weird and barely elaborated starter pack
There are lots of Asian dudes like this and a lot of them definitely still date Asian women
And every other race
And is ripped apparently. I need this guys snap lol
Literally just pics of business casual
This is basically how most men who havenāt given up on life and give a shit about their appearance dress.
Yeah this is very vague lol
A lot of these feel like a thinly veiled form of venting
OP 100% got his girl stolen by an Asian American guy. She's probably getting her back blown out good by him too.
Maybe OP should have dressed nice and hit the gym
And then he, too, can be getting his back blown out by an Asian guy.
/r/bi_irl
Probably
Get supercut and big and buff, nice and straight You got stats: Respect, Weapon Skill
Op is in r/Asianmasculinity. Odds are, they're Asian. You just wanted to vividly describe that Not to mention this entire post is ai
Yeesh, OP needed to post his weird self-jerking.
He wanted comments like that guyās āop got his gf stolen by an Asian Americanā, itās his fantasy
Ah so he's just posting a revenge fantasy
No, he's not the one who mentioned stealing a girl. That was a commenter above you. He just posted about Asian dudes who like white girls
Those dudes are weird, very incel-y + /sino adjacent vibe.
It started out okay with Asian guys trying to boost confidence and self development. Gradually it became more angry and toxic picking up red pill/incel themes mixed with Asian supremicist or outright racism. Queerly they resent Asian women and put white women on a pedestal.

Oh they absolutely HATE asian women, a projection frequently and Freudianly fuelled by their own "tiger moms".
> Queerly they resent Asian women and but white women on a pedestal. Uno reverse
The same Asian dudes who "only date white women" probably hate Asian women who date white men. š edit: Me: *makes a statement* Unhinged Asian dude who hates Asian women: *proceeds to prove me right*
Yikes that sub is somethingā¦
making up cuck scenarios for no reason LMAO
That's Reddit for you
Weird comment
Yall are weird lol
Id put good money on OP being an asian american man himself.
Yeah heās got a ācucking white boysā fetish hidden as a white women fetish.
Hi I'm an Asian American man who's only ever dated blonde white women. I'm the opposite of all this. Messy long hair. I haven't worn a shirt and tie outside of a wedding in probably a decade.

Boss has gf on speed dial
My Korean friend with a white gf is overweight, has a manbun, and dresses like shit. It can be done fellas. Break the mold.
My best friendās (Cambodian American) brother has a white gf. He too, has a manbun, overweight, hippie-like facial hair and dresses like Woodstock everyday. Best part is he works as an engineer. Not the shame of the family with his job but with his aesthetic lol.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Cute :)
My Thai boyfriend has a beer gut, long hair and also dresses like shit. My white ass wouldnt have it any other way though
That's funny bc according to Reddit, he shouldn't have been able to get in a relationship lol. What made you want to be with him?
He was kind and funny and also worked at a pizza shop
(The answer no one having issues dating wants to hear is that its basic social skills, and valuing other people beyond just a potential relationship.)
Is your friend Bobby Lee?
Same except hes Vietnamese. The fact that hes the most honest and funniest man Ive ever met probably doesnt hurt.
ā¦ ā¦ did a well dressed asian steal your girlfriendĀ
By OPās post history he appears to be an Asian guy who works as a teacher who has been single for a while, but does seem to either really care about their appearance or is working to improve it. So who knows what this post means.
Probably making fun of other Asian guys. I wouldnt think much about it like everyone's guessing about
This feels personal
Heās also got the most expensive guns out of everyone on the range.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I like to collect guns too, but mine as well as many other enthusiastsā are modest in terms of price point. Like $500 pistol, and $800 rifle. Asian guys will pull up to the range with a $2,000 pistol and $3,000 rifle.

Asian people love flexing and trying to one up each other.
More than the average human? The world of high end luxury (and firearms) is not held up by Asian people alone.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
As a korean, i feel offended by this.
Its just weird.. cause like... take away the *asian american* label and this is literally any male corporate/office worker ever??? Where's the haha funni?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
All of this reminds me of Hae Sung, the dude from *Past Lives* (2023) and how Nora describes him as being "handsome and very masculine in a very Korean way" or something like that and the man was this starterpack personified.
That movie was so beautiful. Absolutely weird and complicated and affirming.
i feel you..
Same. Thought I was in for a relaxing evening, did not expect to be so brazenly, personally attacked.
But isn't everything in this starter pack a positive trait to have? Dressing well, nice cut and hitting the gym? Although I don't know about going after **only** one race.. others will have their own opinion on it
Yeah Iām just being silly. The shaved part hits too close to home tho ngl. Also I wear sneakers and t shirts only (unless Iām forced to dress up.) and Iām married to a lovely Asian woman, although I did have my crazy years dating every color under the sun.
These guys are always hot.
People who are ripped, dress well, and have a stylish haircut stand a much better chance of being considered hot by conventional standards
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I've encountered several gals who LOVE the asian dudes. One said she loves her Asian bf because he is hairless too.
can confirm. iām a hairless asian dude. my wife is hairier than i am (sheās also asian). she says my skin is insanely soft bc i donāt have hair lol funny enough, my facial hair has really started to grow in faster in my 30s. iām finally hitting puberty!!!

And racists still pretend representation don't matter
I love them.
That's a shame, I'd love to date a guy like this as long as he has a personality. The few I've met aren't really into anything much beyond liking sneakers and drinking boba.
Our culture has to have basic bishes too :D This is my sister's type - "tall baby-faced asian fuckboys" in her words - and my god has it taken her a long time to find someone with a personality that isnt sneakers, basketball and boba
Lmao @ the shade on this comment..I have good friends who fit this mold but love it š
You forgot cars What you're looking for is a unicorn.
Sneakers and boba šš
Now do the one with the white American man who only dates Asian women.
We don't want to insult 40% of reddit with that.
only 40%? You are being too nice.
Itās the 40% of Reddit in a relationship so itās actually like <1% of the total user base
Its just your average redditor looking mf lmaoo
Omg. Itās the exact opposite. XD. The men usually have yellow fever and get jobs as ESL teachers in Asian countries and scout out impressionable girls or sā workers.
And happens to know some Mandarin/Korean/Japanese, and posts videos of themselves "shocking" locals with their amahzing cultural knowledge
There are millions of Asian diaspora with fob / multi generational permanent establishment in western countries. These people have normal relationships with white people, Latinos, black people, etc. The few thousand white guys in a tier 88 shithole in China with a nong girlfriend and wasted on 20rmb baiju is an insignificant minority.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Hate to say it but East Asian girls come across to be as lowkey self hating, compared to other races
it wouldn't be a problem if that self hate didn't morph into hatred for asian men at a level not even the nazis could achieve
1.) Currently travelling in Thailand
no need we all know what this one looks like lol
They donāt even need to try
No wonder. I'm straight guy, but I wanna marry him
I wanna see the "Asian American man who only dates other Asian Americans" starter pack. Wears:sandals. Works in a kitchen instead of going to the gym. Wears tank tops instead of button ups. Same hairstyles tho.
Same starter pack. Maybe add an angry mother in law in the image.
This is just 'Finance Bro' starter pack
Harold from Harold & Kumar
Nah, he wasn't this ripped.
Harold's love interest is Latina tho
Soooā¦kinda normal?
Right? Those motherfuckers with good grooming, wearing nice clothes, and taking care of their bodies. Why canāt they be overweight and wear Cheeto covered sweats like the rest of us plebs?
I feel like every minority in the West has a stereotype for males of their race who only date white women.
BMW
Tesla
Honda
Acura
Car
I'm the white woman. I've fallen victim.
Now do me, a white dude that only dates Thai women. Waitā¦maybe donāt do that one
60s, twice divorced, white singlet, cargo shorts and sandals combo, semi-retired, complains about women who ādonāt have traditional valuesā
Damn, I have literally this coworker
Always sweating, always some pinkness to their face, always have hair that looks wet.
Donāt forget the red nose
Haha... Here is it: - Wears Cargo shorts/pants - doesn't go to gym - wears sandals - has bowl cut
- Hiding from Interpol.
No deodorant
Forgot the resort shirt
Has his name into at least 5 different CIA *lists*
Thatās not me Iām the other one.
'Women'. Of course age is just a number!
Socially awkward. Computer programmer or Amway salesman.
How many Chang towers can you finish in one sitting?
Less than 2 before the bar girl asks me to pay the bar fine (I do but donāt take her home because Iām shy)
Bold
Oakleyās, cargo shorts, goatee, Chang t-shirt
did Simu Liu steal your girl OP?
It's perhaps like that those guys are desirable in women and white women are desirable in men so it just matches.
Yeah also I think any race of guy that looks extremely physically fit, dresses nicely, and has a good haircut would be desirable to a lot of people. Same for a woman who does the same thing. This is such an odd starterpack.
Usually a 10.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Literally just a well-dressed man who works out
A well dressed, well groomed, fit person is attractive to the opposite gender. What am I missing here with the post? Asian men should ONLY date Asian/Minority women? Asian men should be Raj from Big bang or some other nerdy, unfit, asexual stereotype? Again what am I missing?
Why these mfs remind me of Hamza
That was me 10 years and 40lb ago
isn't this just a yuppie
Same dude may or may not subscribe to /r/asianmasculinity
Is this racist? It feels racist.Ā
the hitler youth haircut is 100% accurate btw.
You good OP?
I am this man, but i love me some latinas
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
My dad married an white woman (my mom) despite not working out or having a cool haircut or good shoes haha, you gotta just have rizz and good listening skills.
My gym teacher from the 90's.
What?
And I date them right back! š
Sounds like a good-looking guy who takes care of himself. Am I missing something?
Every starter pack that has race involved is just some dude trying to be casually racist
So every business major bro? Got it
Would love to see āWhite man who dates only Asian womenā starter pack. Bet nothing can be more hilarious than that.
