that depends on what kind of 'asian' they are.

I had a Taiwanese friend joking about this last week: He said a americanized asian girl will complain why you are not spending enough time and money with her. A fob-i chinese girl, even is she in maternity giving child birth will tell you: Oh... Don't woorry about the baby, just go to work and make sure you make the money/get promotion.... etc.

Sorry, don't downvote this, I know it is a crass overgeneralization but this is just a view of my chinese/taiwanese friend.

It seems that cultural upbringing has a huge role on how women see what the role of the man should be. And in some cultures, women demand less attention, which might make them a better fit for busy type of person.

I downvoted it. It is a crass overgeneralization, clearly based on stereotypes that have been reinforced by the narrow opinions of a couple of your friends.

I lived in Asia for more than six years. Speak Mandarin. Married locally. The idea that Asian women tend to "demand less attention," or what you refer to a "Fresh Off the Boat" Chinese girl giving birth will urge her mate to "don't wory about the baby" and "make sure you get the money" is absolute, utter B.S.

It has to do with where one is at in the Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
