I ran into the same sort of thing about 20-25 years ago. There was a Chinese girl waitress at a local Chinese restaurant that I thought was Mighty Fine. I asked her out, & she gave me 15000 reasons "No", but the real, unspoken one was that I was white. I think Orientals tend to be more clannish than even us inbred redneck hillbillies...

Thanks for demonstrating that there are compassion and shared values on both the right and the left.
I don't think any of us participating here is gonna fit perfectly into any cubby-hole - except for me; I have to stay in the one for the guy that's always right.
Regards,

Yes, the only time we caucasians get to be 'white' is around the time they have drained all your blood and are getting ready to fill you full of embalming fluid.
