During my time in Japan... I never really saw any girls that made me think "wow, that's sexy"

Now Korea... I spend most days wanting to sleep with the whole country.

lol.....plastic surgery is a natural part of life in Korea.

Oh crap. the Surgery part is scary. 15 year olds get their eyes done. I'm not a big fan of that. They're beautiful just they way they are. They really need to stop trying to look like white people.

who says theyre trying to look like white people?

If it's anything like China then they have a very strict idea of what qualifies as beautiful and most of the attributes that they consider beautiful are features more commonly found in caucasians rather than asians.

e.g tall, pale white skin, big eyes (preferably not brown), high narrow nose etc

If you took a  quick glance at the "most attractive" Chinese celebrities and stars you'd be hard pressed to tell they are Chinese/Asian at all.

1. other than the nose, none of those attributes are strictly caucasian (or even mostly caucasian). the only real thing that separates asian girls from white ones are lack of brow ridges. and whered you get this strict idea of beauty, anyway? are you PRC?

2. then show me this list of "most attractive" asian stars. im positive youre bullshitting.

I never said those attributes are strictly Caucasian, i said they were more often seen in Caucasians than Asians.  Chinese girls (in China) TEND to be shorter, appear to have smaller eyes due to more periorbital fat, have lower nose bridges and darker skin than the average caucasian girl. You can of course find Chinese girls or girls from many other ethnic and racial backgrounds that are tall, have pale white skin, "big" eyes and a high narrow nose, but that wasn't my point.

I lived in China for five years and observed that their idea of beauty in females is often defined by these few discrete characteristics and is bound up the popularly held concept of 'classic beauty'. Ask the average Chinese female what makes a woman beautiful and they will name most or all of the above features. I have, for example, seen some ridiculously hot girls in China who were considered not attractive by other Chinese just because of the fact thaty they had a nice tan.  

Add to this the ubiquitous whitening creams available in every shop, market and corner store throughout China, the fact that Chinese girls ALWAYS use umbrellas in summer for fear of getting 'darker' and the booming and burgeoning cosmetic surgery (particuarly eyelid surgergy) in South Korea and mainland China respectively and i would say yes, it's fair to say they are trying to look white or aspire to acquire some features that are more commonly seen in Caucasians than in Asians.

I said i have seen many Chinese stars, i didn't say i was a fan of any of them.  If you want names you'll have to wait until my wife comes home.
