TikToker shares her interaction with an expat in Singapore who only dates Asian women
...
“Back home he rates himself a 7.5, and in Singapore, he rates himself a 9."
...
Candilicious, who makes videos about dating and living in Singapore, ends her video by saying, "I don't know what you Singaporean ladies are doing, but you could do so much better."
...
“It isn't just Singapore it's the same in Taiwan too,” one person wrote.

“Hahahahahahahah omg I used to live in Bangkok and this was also painfully common to see/hearv [sic],” another user wrote.

Similar observations in the comments:

For a lot of the young male English teachers is Tokyo, the dating opportunities in Japan are their number one reason for coming in the first place.  Seen more than my share of guys who are a "6" on a good day, dating women who are 9's...

When I first went to South East Asia, I told a friend, "It's like you've become a really good looking millionaire".

It’s the same in the US, Asian women chase after White guys because it’s a way to climb the social ladder.

Unfortunately, photos are unavailable. I suspect the faces involved could be entertaining.
