I think females think those famous men who can speak fluent english and asian languages attractive, as most people in those countries are not good at english. And another important thing about them is they look handsome and have a Asian+Western personality.
On the other hand, females who can speak fluent english and asian languages, look pretty and have a Asian+Western personality are cool but are too smart for an average asian man. Such women also tend to like only asian men of the same type or western men.
what's with this racist comments?
Asian men who can speak fluent English are attractive - well, are white men who can speak Asian languages attractive too?
Asian men who have some western personality are attractive, so are white men who some Asian personality attractive too?
You talk as if Asian women all want something western (language/personality) in Asian men, as if
western-ness is a superior quality.
Explain to me, what makes "western personality" better than "Asian personality"? There are bad and good in both and neither is "better" or "more attractive" than the other.
Not really. Usually Im more annoyed by them if they are trying to prove how well they speak English.
I am annoyed by Asian people who try to demonstrate they are somewhat "westernized" and are not "typical Asian". Such inferiority complex is despicable.

And how do you detect if they are trying to prove how well they speak English? If anyone can genuinely speak a language well enough, there's nothing to prove, is there?

I guess he meant that some sad fakers just love to speak English to each other even though there's no need to.
Speaking English among Chinese people is always viewed negatively. Being able to speak a foreign language is certainly a good thing, but it's not so much a symbol of status in China.

Well, I live in Asia. But, in the most inappropriate places, they come over and immediately start telling you things in English.
For example, you are eating at a restaurant with friends or your kids. Someone comes over and points and all the things at your table and says in English, 'Ketchup,' 'chicken,' 'napkins', etc. As if they are waiting for you to applaud them for their excellent English. Then they start engaging in meaningless chit-chat, when they can't understand your answers, and you'd rather be talking to the friends you've made the appointment to actually see and talk with.
Other inappropriate times are when you walking down the street, and some guy tries to prove to his friends or his date, and shouts out 'HI! Where are you from?' They laugh. Those are events simply to show others their ability to say English words, without any other function whatsoever.
Other times are when someone engages you while you are reading or studying something on the subway. They inappropriately start telling jokes or asking weird questions - 'where do you live?', 'can you use chopsticks?' - etc., all while talking loudly, trying to show to everyone else on the subway train their ability to speak English with a foreigners, etc.
It goes on and on. If it's appropriate, i.e. I ask something in English, and need a response in English to understand, than it's well-appreciated. If it just some guy trying to prove to everyone else his English ability, at my own expense. Than it's annoying.

Ok we don't do this, that's pretty rude and ridiculous lol.

I am curious with this comment. What do you mean by "typical Asian"? Is this more in fashion?
Well, you're right somehow but you can't say it in generic terms.
