I know a lot of UK Punjabi guys who are married to white women. It’s not seen as a big deal over there.
I don’t think non-Indian women intrinsically hate Indian skin tones. I think the issue is assimilation and acting more “western”. I bet if we fast forward 20-30 years then the next generation of Indian guys (US born) will not have the same issues as FOBs. Indians have been in UK for 3 generations now, so the culture is different. They’re pretty mainstream.
FYI The word “Paki” is a racist term in UK. It’s considered as bad as the N word in the US.

In Canada and the UK, you'll find Indian mechanics (no offence El Mech), plumbers, carpenters, etc because Indians there get all their relatives over. Even in the UK and Canada, its mostly blue-collar Indians who date outside their race. Maybe because the Indian educational system makes you beta?

Thanks for the analysis, but you can’t compare the US and UK in this instance – the cultures are very different, especially when it comes to interracial dating. The types of Indian in both countries are different too- as well being from different part of India there are different levels of assimilation.
BTW only approximately half of the UK Indian guys are Punjabi, the rest are not.

So if you're correct that the Punjabis are more successful at interracial marrying, we'd expect much higher intermarriage rates for British-Indians than Indian-Americans. Instead, Indian-Americans have slightly higher intermarriage rates. Which indicates that having a large Punjabi population really doesn't make British-Indians much different than Indian-Americans.
I was doing research on athletic achievement among British South Asians and I found that they tend to be exceptionally underrepresented in soccer/football and other sports. British of Afro-Carribean descent are highly overrepresented. For example, British South Asian men are 10-11x less likely to make it to professional football/soccer, in comparison to British whites. Black men are 10-11x more likely to make it into professional soccer/football than whites. So the athleticism gap between blacks-whites is similar to the white-South Asian gap.
In America, we see the same pattern in athletic achievement, with blacks excelling and Indians being highly underrepresented.
So are the Punjabis really that different? Are they significantly better at sports and interracial marriage? That stats don't show that. I'm not saying slight differences don't exist, especially in sports, but there don't appear to be huge differences.
By the way, the majority of British-Pakistanis are Punjabis. So if Punjabi guys were alpha with sports and women, the stats (marriage, sports, STI/STD) would reflect that..... The stats do show a very high rate of alpha behavior among British blacks, which is what we would expect. British blacks are alpha like American blacks. British South Asians are, in general, not much different from Indian-Americans.

As I mentioned before, it’s a generational thing too.. so you can’t really use the stats to compare. The issue is FOB nerdy Indian vs assimilated Indian and their level of comfort with western culture.
e.g. FOB nerdy Indian - arrives in the US, and has never been near any race of woman. How does he react when he sees white women? He goes crazy! He comes across as needy and aggressive and scares them off. These guys have no game and get frustrated & are the IRTs. There's also US born guys who are raised as nerds by their parents and have the same issues.
e.g. UK/US/Canada born and raised Indian guy, who grew up around white and other races of women and doesn’t see them as a big deal. He’ll be a lot more chilled with women of all races and has probably banged a few by his mid 20s.
I have no idea why you are bringing sports into this - a lot of South Asian families do not push their kids into sport because they think it’s better to make money as a professional. The most popular sport in south Asia is cricket, so there have been south Asian kids pushed into cricket and some have done well - one of the England cricket captains (Nasser Hussain) was born in India!
BTW The majority of British Pakistanis are not Punjabi, they are Mirpuri (Kashmiri).
Quote:We noted striking variations in number of sexual partnerships by ethnic group and between men and women. Reported numbers of sexual partnerships in a lifetime were highest in black Caribbean (median 9 [IQR 4-20]) and black African (9 [3-20]) men, and in white (5 [2-9]) and black Caribbean (4 [2-7]) women. Indian and Pakistani men and women reported fewer sexual partnerships, later first intercourse, and substantially lower prevalence of diagnosed STIs than did other groups. We recorded a significant association between ethnic origin and reported STIs in the past 5 years with increased risk in sexually active black Caribbean (OR 2.74 [95% CI 1.22-6.15]) and black African (2.95 [1.45-5.99]) men compared with white men, and black Caribbean (2.41 [1.35-4.28]) women compared with white women. Odds ratios changed little after controlling for age, number of sexual partnerships, homosexual and overseas partnerships, and condom use at last sexual intercourse.
Quote:
White women in Britain have more sexual partners than females from the other main ethnic groups but black men have an average of 50 per cent more lovers than white males, according to new research.
A survey of more than 11,000 adults aged between 16 and 44, published today in The Lancet, reveals that white women claim to have had an average of five sexual partners, black Caribbeans four, black Africans three, and both Indians and Pakistanis one.
Among men, those of black Caribbean and African descent both average nine lovers in their lifetime, followed by whites with six, Indians two and Pakistanis one.
Dr Kevin Fenton of University College London, the study's lead author, says this was the first research among the general population. Previous studies of sexual behaviour and health have been based on data gathered at genito-urinary clinics, raising fears over how far the findings could be generalised.
In analysing the results, the researchers took steps to prevent the data being skewed by a small number of individuals claiming large numbers of partners.
They find that higher proportions of black men admitted to having had sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and that black Caribbean men reported an average age of first sexual intercourse of 15 - two years lower than any other ethnic group of either sex.
Dr Fenton says that this could contribute to the higher incidence of sexual health problems among the black population in Britain, especially given that black Caribbeans tend to be younger and more often single than the rest of the population.
He also points out the role of cultural norms regarding issues such as multiple partners and the age of losing one's virginity, with the substantially older age of first intercourse and lower number of partners among Indians and Pakistanis coinciding with low STI rates.
When men were asked about whether they had ever been diagnosed with a STI, 10.9 per cent of whites, 19.7 cent of black Caribbeans and 16.2 per cent of black Africans said they had. The figures for Indian and Pakistani males were 3.4 and 3.2 per cent.
Despite claiming to have had fewer partners, black women report more STIs, with 22.7 per cent of those of Caribbean descent and 14.1 per cent of those of African descent admitting to at least one. The proportions among whites, Indians and Pakistanis are 12.4, 7.8 and 3.6 per cent respectively.
Dr Fenton warns that this could mean white women are less likely to report sexual health problems than blacks.
The average male age for loss of virginity is 15 for black Caribbeans, 17 for whites and black Africans and 20 for Indians and Pakistanis.
Among women it is 17 for whites and black Caribbeans, 18 for black Africans, 21 for Indians and 22 for Pakistanis.
Interestingly, the overall median claimed number of sexual partners is six for men but only four for women.
The researchers put this down to men exaggerating and women downplaying their sexual history.
Dr Fenton concludes: "While trends may change over time, one thing that doesn't seem to change in surveys of sexual behaviour is that men will over-report and women will under-report."

Indian intermarriage rates increase significantly from the first to second generation in both the US and UK. Which is why (in my above post) I used intermarriage stats for 1.5/2nd generation British-Indians vs 1.5/2nd generation Indian-Americans. I excluded the 1st generation FOBs from my analysis.
The same is even more true for Chinese men. Their intermarriage rates both in the US and UK skyrocket from 1st to 1.5/2nd generation. When people note that Chinese women interracially mix at much higher rates than Chinese men, they often don't realize the gap closes quite a bit in subsequent generations. For Indian and especially Chinese men, growing up in a Western environment boosts their game a lot.
In both the UK and the US, 1.5/2nd generation Chinese men actually intermarry with white women at higher rates than Indian men. I was surprised to find that out.
I brought up sports stats not to insult anyone, but because sports success often opens doors to getting dates. My point was that a lack of participation of British Indian/Pak men in soccer/football probably has a detrimental effect on their success with women, while the strong performance of Afro-Carribean British men in in soccer increases their success rate with women. This is definitely noticeable among black and Indian populations in America.....
Of course there are good Indian/Pak athletes too. Amir Khan is the Britain's top boxer and gets lots of poon. Back in the 1990s, this cricketer Imran Khan married Jemima GOldsmith. A guy of any race can use sports to his advantage. At my high school, I knew Chinese and Korean dudes who played sports and dated hot white girls.

It's blue pill male inferiority complexes based on race, the same type of sentiment that already dominates a lot of the actions of minority females. Most of U.K./U.S. are inherently toxic to begin with and looking for beta bucks. If a lot of these guys have a white woman fetish they should go to EE or even mainland Europe.
