Would you feel comfortable if one of your children was in a relationship with an Asian person? Posted by AdIcy4323
tomveiltomveil on February 3, 2026 6:34 pm Maybe I’ve just been an American for too long, but I can’t even figure out WTF there would be to feel uncomfortable about.
epicredditdude1 on February 3, 2026 6:45 pm Just for some context, in Europe doesn’t “Asian” typically mean middle eastern? This may be confusing for those in the U.S., where Asian typically means East Asian.
TillTamura on February 3, 2026 6:51 pm i mean if my daughter would date kim yong un i definitly would have a problem with that!
Robcobes on February 3, 2026 6:55 pm Does The Netherlands know how Indonesian they are themselves? Between 8 and 10% of Dutch people have an Indonesian ancestor.
Jarboner69 on February 3, 2026 7:04 pm Is there a reason why Switzerland is always greyed out on just about every poll I see
7amdrei7 on February 3, 2026 7:06 pm Wait till parents in Romania and Hungary hear that India is in Asia 😅

mrsciencedude69 on February 3, 2026 7:12 pm Uh does Cyprus realize what continent they are a part of?
esperstrazza on February 3, 2026 7:15 pm I’m guessing the question would need to define what counts as an asian
A_Perez2 on February 3, 2026 7:22 pm Siberian Russian? Chinese? Japanese? Vietnamese? Indian? Mongolian? Israeli? Kuwaiti? Isn’t Asia huge?
Top_Natural_1 on February 3, 2026 7:24 pm Depends. South East Asian I would feel comfortable. Middle eastern, I would not feel comfortable at all
transaltalt on February 3, 2026 7:28 pm interesting that acceptance gets lower the closer you get to asia
firejuggler74 on February 3, 2026 7:31 pm Would be interesting to see the opposite. Ask asian countries if one of your children was in a relationship with an non Asian person?
zepherth on February 3, 2026 7:35 pm When is this data from op? Dates are important especially when reddie love to repost maps that are a decade old
gilgames_in_tamarian on February 3, 2026 7:37 pm The Cypriots being scared of dating Asians means immediate and utter demographic collapse
kindlyneedful on February 3, 2026 7:38 pm What “Asian” means in some cultures is basically “Chinese or Japanese”, whereas in Britain it’s effectively “Indian or Pakistani”.
DrMacAndDog on February 3, 2026 7:42 pm I think if you object to that many people; it’s not them, it’s you
anansi52 on February 3, 2026 7:43 pm i’m done with the nonsense of pretending that europe isn’t just west asia.
AcornTopHat on February 3, 2026 7:46 pm It depends on if they are a cool Asian person that will love and care for my child or a complete dick Asian person.
Attygalle on February 3, 2026 7:47 pm I would be absolutely fuming. Mostly because my children are 3 and 5 years old but still.
Slosh5 on February 3, 2026 8:01 pm “Asian” is a very broad term. Are we talking Indian? Japanese? Arab? Mongolian? Thai? Nenets?
Comfortable-Bonus421 on February 3, 2026 8:02 pm Define Asian… For the most part, in the UK it means the Indian subcontinent (including Pakistan). For the rest of Europe, it means Asia: China, Japan, Thailand, Korea, and such. At a push it could mean Kazakhstan which is usually categorised as Central Asia.
MoKelic32 on February 3, 2026 8:39 pm I think we will get drasticially different results depending of people think of: – japanese, chinese, korean – indian – israeli Technicially all asian but quite different

So what did Asians do to the Czech?
Wait till parents in Romania and Hungary hear that India is in Asia 😅
In Portugal an “Asian” = Chinese, Korean or Japanese.

Siberian Russian? Chinese? Japanese? Vietnamese? Indian? Mongolian? Israeli? Kuwaiti?
Isn’t Asia huge?
Depends. South East Asian I would feel comfortable. Middle eastern, I would not feel comfortable at all

It also depends on the Asian part, right?
Would be interesting to see the opposite. Ask asian countries if one of your children was in a relationship with an non Asian person?

I mean, Asia is big.

Not surprising from Europe.
Feel sorry to Czech as asian

Now do black
I think we will get drasticially different results depending of people think of:
– japanese, chinese, korean
– indian
– israeli
Technicially all asian but quite different

That’s a long-winded way of saying “how racist are you?”
“Are Europeans racist?”
