No there isn't. Asian American (as in oriental) are all grouped into Asian by 95% of white america. Your average girl won't be able to tell the difference. Hell some of my lays couldn't tell the difference between a Korean / Japanese / Thai.

Maybe for your anime groupie nerd, but thats such a small niche outside the coastal areas.

Now, possibly SEA guys personalities are more western oriented and more attractive to western girls, but thats nothing to do with race in general.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
25 pages of this thread later and we still see guys wishing they were of a different Asian sub-race and making the assumption that being --insert ethnicitiy here-- would make white girls receive him better, blah blah. Anybody know what this game/self-improvement/grab your destiny by the cock thing is all about?

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
I don't want this to devolve into a debate on Koreans vs. other Asians like that other thread. I am Korean and get lots of white women, banged out a new one last night in fact. I'm sure many of our brothers from other parts of Asia do the same. We're all in this together.

Question for you guys: have you had success on dating apps other than Tinder? I recently started using OKC again and have been getting great results from it, so it got me thinking about there possibly being other avenues that haven't been exploited. I think OKC works well for me because my game is very centered around calibration, I need some information to get me started. On Tinder I get lots of matches but I only make headway with the girls that have longer bios or good context from their pictures to work with. I think part of this is because girls with no bios are less invested in the platform to begin with, and are just on there for kicks, but also I find that those girls are less conversational in general. I would say that generic banter / cocky & funny works better for them, but that isn't really my style.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
5'9" Hapa here. With EE girls I got largely ignored online save for a small handful of girls that were interested. Running game irl gives you much better results except the language barrier is a problem, anything 7+ don't speak English. I am studying Russian now to get around this. I find that my phenotype is a hit with Polish women only and the rest of EE merely tolerate.

With EE women I think the bigger problem than our ethnicity is knowing whether we are getting played ourselves, especially with the more attractive women. Like, there will be women that give you attention and pretend to like you but have not so altruistic motives. These are the ones to watch out for. I only started to think deeply about this when I heard about Rich Piana being played by his islandic gf for a visa. I thought, what are the red flags for this?

I only started to think deeply about this when I heard about Rich Piana being played by his islandic gf for a visa. I thought, what are the red flags for this?

I encountered an Ukrainian dancer here in Asia trying to play me. I'm not sure what her ultimate motive was, maybe a free vacation to Thailand, or perhaps even a visa/passport to the Anglosphere, but I did catch on pretty quick. I didn't give up too quickly though as I still plowed for at least something (and spending money on coffee/dinner in the process), just so I could say I "dated a dancer".

Some red flags I encountered were:

- Melodramatic personality, as if she lives her life in a film, with quite polar and spontaneous displays of emotion (whether real or acting), signs of a Siren. This girl even had herself a fake Anglophone last name (or maybe that was her former stripper name... I have suspicions that she danced as a stripper back in Kiev).

- Using the "Are you man?" card multiple times whenever I hesitated to pay for her orders (sure, men are expected to pay for women in FSU, but none of the other girls I dated had ever blatantly called me out).

- Exaggerated display of "femme fatale game" when rejecting/dodging your physical escalation (e.g. flings her hair when rejecting a kiss attempt, and perhaps even smirking while doing so), this is indicative of an extremely large female ego, or even a female dark triad personality.

- Using many intimate names towards you, even though nothing has yet happened between you two. This is similar to the first point.

- Being secretive or overly private about her identity and her past, or not directly answering your probing questions about her life.

- Talks about her desires to leave her current place of residence and to live abroad in the US or Canada, at least once.

- Attempts to play the ultra feminine or victim card by telling you a (exaggerated) story of her being in danger/tough situation, to trigger your protector/provider instincts in order to exert more emotional control over you. I fell for this one on one occasion because I gave her the benefit of the doubt that "FSU girls are ultra feminine and like to feel protected".

- Has not put out after 3-4 dates but continues to enthusiastically accept your invitation or invite you.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Ukrainian girls I've met are among the most cunning of women. I would say if there's a female community scheming to get Western guys trapped it would be in Ukraine.

Perhaps that's why the audience was pro roosh. Game recognized.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Hey guys, wanted to give you guys an update on my travels.

Tallin, Estonia

First and foremost, Estonian girls are generally hot. The biggest problem with Tallin is volume, and that Estonians don't really go out. Of the very few instances I got to chat some up, my overall impression is that they are generally friendly and receptive. If you want to chat Estonians, the bar I recommend the most is a hipster bar called KELM. I recommend going there on Thursday-Saturdays. Talent there is fantastic although it is a bit hard to make approaches as people are sitting down. I don't think we get exotic points for being Asian here. I rarely got eye contact...it could be that Estonians are usually cold as well.

The most happening events during my time there were the Erasmus events. These Erasmus events happen in Red Emperor Bar on Mondays and Club Munt on Wednesdays. In Club Munt, I managed to chat up this cute French girl who positioned herself to talk to me. She told me she went to Mongolia for 3 weeks and that it was the "most incredible trip of my life". I teased her asking if that if that is because she likes Asians guys and she enthusiastically smiles and nods. LOLZ Started dancing with her and started grinding. Seems like it was going down...but then...her fellow Erasmus friends came in cockblocked me. This is theme I find with Erasmus events here. It was super clicky as everyone kinda knew each other.

In another Club Munt Erasmus event, I saw this cute white girl with 2 of her female friends who were Asian. I figure she must also like Asian guys and approached. Not surprisingly I got a warm reception and started dancing with her as well. Things were going good and again, got blocked by her fellow classmates. Sad

I had a good time in Tallin but overall, I think Tallin gets a pass because volume is such an issue here. Plus it's 30-35% more expensive than Poland which is fast becoming my favorite country in Europe. Didn't get any bangs here but I did capture my Estonian flag in China so all good.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Any sort of exchange student situation can be tricky when you're out. Ran into a hot Finnish girl in Korea who was into it but was with like 20 of her classmates (no joke). Happened to me on at least 3 different occasions with exchange students

In those cases, I think you're better off getting the number after you know she likes you and meeting at a later date (if time is not an issue). Or text her ~closing time when she's hopefully starting to leave her friends "still out? let's grab a drink Wink" etc.
^ Met up with the Finnish chick like that (didn't bang cuz of logistics) and a black chick (banged) that way

Are you finding more and more black chicks having a thing for us Asian guys these days? I've hooked up with quite a few and it seems to be growing. Good for me, I love the dark meat.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Hi guys, always love Latina cause I do a lot of Latin dancing. Been going on an approach rampage with a RVF member. I can see that Latin girls, even those in Paris, are much more receptive and feminine than your typical white girls.

If even the Western Latina are like this, the local ones must be even better.

According to your experience, what Latino country where Asian (assuming you have basic game and very good style) are well received?
My buddy insist on Manila Mexico but he's white so his experience might not match ours.

Whats Mexico compared to Brazil or Columbia? And whats language gives the best ROI? Spanish or Portuguese?

Brosemite seems to be too busy swooping Latina ass to answer his brothers' desperate plea for aid Laugh

Yea definitely. Its always been like that for me at least.
In the US, Asians and blacks by far like me the most, dont know why (with blacks)

I dont think it really matters. You're so exotic in most of these countries

I went to Nicaragua (after finding RVF and taking my first "bang" trip) and people would look at me like I was an alien. I even got approached at times, like a girl sitting next to me on the bus, rubbing my leg, asking for my number (granted she was fat)

The thing is, you need to learn Spanish (or Portuguese for Brazil)
But IMO if you speak English, Spanish is pretty easy (Latin roots)

Sorry been VERY busy with work, long hours driving, etc.

Places like Colombia or Southern Brazil (Curitiba or Porto Alegre) might be good bets for you. Keep in mind however places like Brazil can be VERY superficial about things like height, etc. Doesn't mean you can't bang taller chicks though I find it a bit easier to overcome that in your traditional "western" countries however.

It's a very tough learning curve regarding bureaucracy, culture, etc. At least in Brazil..it'll be a good experience for sure. Economy is VERY rough so finding work is hard for foreigners let alone locals. Better have money saved up.

Infrastructure sucks so having a car is important in long-run.

Here are my thoughts about Latin America within this thread...very long:

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Id say if you are quite new to game and love dancing definitely hit cali and Bogotá Colombia . Haven't been to Medellín but it could be good too. Cali has a big salsa scene, enroll in one of the dance schools there and you will meet loads of people.
With Brazil it's more like either a very short vacation game where you hit rio, São Paulo and prob Floripa and you will meet girls in bars. For something of a longer stay as already said it can be hard as you will more be involved in the slow and beuocratic culture which can wear you out. Best bet is just hit the main cities , e.g. Party spots in São Paulo and rio. I wouldn't say Brazil is easy, it would be neutral(if the states or W Europe is hard) as there are already a lot of races there but they are pretty friendly and with the party atmosphere, hooking up isn't really a big deal. So Latin America is in this order with easier being first - Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, small Central America countries, Brazil, Peru, Chile, Argentina. I have yet to see any asian dude having it easy in the latter 2 countries.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
JAKARTA APRIL 2017


ABOUT ME

Korean-American. From California. Mid-to-late twenties. 5'11". 170 pounds. Athletic build.

Earlier I wrote a datasheet about the secondary cities of Indonesia's Java Island. But since Jakarta is a beast of its own, it deserves its own datasheet. I know there's loads of information about Jakarta but it's good to keep its information updated. I posted this datasheet on my own thread on the travel section, but I want to contribute here as well. Enjoy!


DURATION OF STAY

28 days


EXISTING INFORMATION

http://www.jakarta100bars.com/: This website has been referenced many times on this forum. For good reason too. This guy made an entire website that is 95% dedicated for everything about Jakarta and other parts of Indonesia. I say 95% because the website also has a little information about other countries (Philippines, Vietnam etc...). To be honest, you can get away with just using this website alone. Without even needing the information on this forum. But the more information the better.

Due to the ever-changing nature of cities around the world (especially Jakarta). It's important to keep information up to date. But it's also important to give credit to those who have spent the time to provide intel. You will notice in my last datasheet (secondary cities of Indonesia) I provided a hyperlink of all existing threads pertaining to the topic at hand. The same will be provided for this datasheet as well. If I miss a thread I apologize in advance. Now even though some of the information on the below listed threads are a few years old. It's still important to reference them as an important source of information, because other users have posted comments regarding useful updated intel.

The hyperlinks below will be listed under chronological order based on the OP's first post.

2017

/thread-62924...ht=Jakarta: This has mixed info with Komodo island and Bali

/thread-62354.html: This is my last datasheet about the secondary cities of Java island. I am mentioning it here because some users posted comments about intel regarding Jakarta.

2015

/thread-48787.html: Mixed info with Manila

/thread-44922...ht=Jakarta: Mixed info with Philippines and Bangkok

/thread-44613...ht=Jakarta

2014

/thread-43578...ht=Jakarta

/thread-40116...ht=Jakarta: Great read. One of the first Jakarta datasheets I read.

/thread-38289...ht=Jakarta

/thread-33020...ht=Jakarta: Mixed info with Taipei

2013

/thread-25766...ht=Jakarta

/thread-22595...ht=Jakarta

2010

/thread-2781....ht=Jakarta: Mixed info with Kuala Lumpur and Bali

Hopefully you didn't burn your eyes reading through all those posts. Now lets continue on...


ACCOMMODATION

Apartamen Tamansarri Semanggi: This apartment complex is in between Central Jakarta and South Jakarta. I rented out a studio via Airbnb. The only good thing about this place is its location, as its close to all the South Jakarta nightlife venues. But the traffic is terrible in this location (but where in Jakarta is traffic not bad?). The building itself was built 8 years ago and it looks like it was never renovated ever since. Lots of ex-pats live there as well. I wouldn't stay here again due to the lack of maintenance, overall lack of care for the facilities and the occasional cockroach problem in my room.


TRANSPORTATION

Grab, Uber, Go-Jek


ONLINE GAME

Tinder


DAY GAME

Any mall in this concrete jungle will suffice. Jakarta has over 100 malls. Take your pick. One of my favorite malls is Kota Kasablanca. The locals call it Kokas

[Image: casablanka-88.jpg]


NIGHT GAME

Lets be honest, the main reason most of us go to this city is it's night life and girls. I will comment on the clubs and bars that I've been to. Enjoy!

CLUBS:

Dragonfly: This is the place to be on Wednesday nights. It was renovated a few years back. Medium size club. 200,000 IDR cover charge with no drink voucher. Starts to get crowded around 1am. I don't know how this place is like on weekends because I would be at other clubs. Upscale older crowd. They have a small dance floor. I searched high and low for the best club on Wednesday nights and this yielded the best result.

Blowfish/Puro: I don't know if this is true or not, but I heard they also have ladies night on Wednesday's. But when I went there at 1am it was closed. I guess they discontinued it? Anyways, Blowfish and Puro are brother and sister clubs that are connected to each other. Separate rooms but you can walk to each one by a connecting hallway. Both places gets packed on weekends. I think it's a 100,000 IDR cover charge but that gives you access to both clubs. I forgot if you get a drink voucher or not. Both clubs are medium size with small dance floors

O2 Club: One of the newest clubs in town. This place was packed on a Thursday night. I don't know how it's like on the weekends since I've only been there on a Thursday. It offers a great view of the city since its on the 59th floor. Mixed crowd of students, tourists, locals, ex-pats... No cover charge. Medium sized dance floor which is nice to see in a Indonesian club.

[Image: d07f3482e130b8ea8f99d972176b300e_featured_v2.jpg]


Equinox (2nd floor of X2): Located inside Plaza Senayan. Gets packed on the weekends. Went there once on a Wednesday and it was dead. But on the weekends there's lots of ex-pats here, they make up about half of the club's population. The other half being a mix of ex-pat hunters, locals and maybe a few tourists. I think 100,000 IDR cover charge that includes a drink voucher.

LOLA - Espiritu y Libacion: No this is not a salsa club. Actually its a "speak easy" hip-hop club. I say "speak easy" because there is no sign outside their building. They only have a big black door. But once you open it you will hear music and people. This place is cool but there are 2 things that I do not like. 1 is that its tiny, you can barely move. 2 is that its too dark inside, you have to be point blank at the girls face to determine if she's cute or not. But for all you hip-hop fans out there (me included) you would like the music. If this place was bigger and brighter I would go there every weekend. No cover charge. Mix of locals, tourists and ex-pats.

[Image: jakarta%2Bspeakeasy%2Blounge.jpg]


The Pallas: Also one of the new clubs in town. In the same building as "Fable" and "Lucy In The Sky" in SCBD (Sudirman Central Business District). If memory serves, paying the cover charge for "The Pallas" also gives you access to "Fable". I forgot how much the cover charge was, maybe 100,000 IDR? Anyways, this club is big and upscale. Has that luxurious type of club vibe. Gets packed on weekends.

[Image: the%2Bpallas%2Bjakarta.jpg]


Fable: Very young crowd. As in some 16 year old's go there to spend their parents money. But its not like the entire club is filled with high school students. I met plenty of other people in their early to mid-twenties. But be careful of those 16 year old's because they are there. **Disclaimer** According to my google search, the legal age of consent for a Indonesian female is 16 years old. But even then, that's just wayyy to young for me. **End Disclaimer**. Back on topic. Fable is a medium sized club and it does get crowded on weekends.

Empirica: In SCBD. Big club. Upscale and luxurious. This is the place to go if you want to party with Indo-Chinese people. Practically the entire club clientele are Indo-Chinese. Also they have one of the longest bars in Asia. The thing is like an anaconda stretching from one side to the other. I forgot how much cover charge was, 100,000 IDR? I think that comes with a drink voucher, not sure. As usual the place is packed on weekends. Wouldn't be surprised if there were pro's here, lots of rich Indo-Chinese buying tables and bottles here.

[Image: empirica_event_space___lounge_sweet_17th...1465897168]


BARS:

Por Que No: Spanish restaurant with a cool roof top bar. They have a DJ playing on the roof top and the view of the city is good. Great place for dates. Cheap beer

[Image: Por-Que-No-Rest_Menteng-20.jpg]


Social House: Inside Plaza Indonesia. They have another location somewhere in Jakarta. Modern chill bar. Good place for dates.

[Image: LItac-Projects-145.jpg]


SKYE Bar & Restaurant: Also inside Plaza Indonesia. Really nice sky bar that offers a great view of central Jakarta. This place is not cheap. Good date spot.

[Image: 2251-445.jpg]


Pantai Indah Kapuk Street (PIK): PIK is located near CGK airport. It's basically a street filled with bars and restaurants. Mall PIK Avenue is also there. Marina Indah is a street right next to PIK and it too is filled with bars and restaurants. These 2 streets and the Mall PIK Avenue basically comprises Pantai Indah Kapuk District (PIK for short). Only issue is that it's far from the rest of Jakarta. If your accommodation is in South or Central Jakarta it will be about a 25-minute drive with no traffic. Good news is that you can take the toll road which avoids the traffic for the most part (sometimes the toll road gets clogged up). The toll fare is cheap, 9,000 IDR. There are no big clubs here, but this place is more for dates and casual nights out.

SIGHT SEEING

Monumen Nasional (MONAS): The locals call it Monas. Its a pretty cool sight. You can go to the very top of the tower and you get a cool view of Jakarta. I recommend going early in the morning. I believe they open at 8am. The line gets long and standing outside in the heat is no fun. Avoid going on weekends and national holidays as tourists and locals all flock there. Early morning weekdays are the best.

MY EXPERIENCE

I have a love/hate relationship with Jakarta. I love it because of the night life, girls and the cost of living for a major Asian capital city is fairly cheap. But I hate it because of the traffic, pollution, not much to do and incompetent Grab, Uber, Go-Jek drivers who get lost half the time. During the rainy season the traffic is even worse because the rain makes everything move slower. When it rains, all the Grab, Uber and Go-Jek drivers go offline because they don't want to drive in the traffic. So if you need to go somewhere, then good luck trying to get a driver. You can still get a blue bird taxi but you will pay more because the meter will be running when you're stuck in traffic. Even with all that being said I still had a good time. The first half of my trip I went through the tinder and night game gauntlet, bringing back different girls here and there. Eventually I met this cute college girl and I chilled with her for the remainder of my time there. For those of you on the fence about visiting Jakarta. Man I would say do it! Just try to avoid coming here during Ramadan. As many places will be closed. But even then, you can still use tinder and day game.


CONCLUSION

Jakarta isn't for everyone. I can understand how one can be intimidated by all the obstacles Jakarta can throw at them. But the juice is worth the squeeze. If you can just soldier through the chaotic maze of the concrete jungle that is Jakarta. You will see why members here go to this city. For me, I felt like I stayed too long. Thankfully, I had my college girl to keep me company and show me around Jakarta. I'm glad I stayed for almost a month because I didn't have to rush anything. I was able to follow up on my tinder leads, set up day 2's and hang out with my local friends. But next time maybe a 3 day weekend trip will be just fine. I hope this datasheet helps you guys out. I understand that the information that I have referenced and provided to you may not reach your 100% expectations. But that's the beauty of being human, were not perfect. You have to take the information that's available to you and go out and experience it yourself. If you choose to come back and share your story with us here, great! If not, hey no worries. As long as you gained something from it. For good or for worse, think of it as being a learning experience. I'm super grateful of the intel the members on this forum have provided. It helped me out a lot during my travels. So it's an honor for me to return the favor and contribute as much as I can. Until next time.

Peace.

If you read jakarta100bars.com and the previous threads I have referenced, you will see there's plenty of information regarding all of that. Since they have all that information covered, I focused more on the venues that I personally experienced and my observation of the city. There is a reason why I put all the referenced sources in the beginning of this datasheet. Because I am hoping you read through it first, then continue reading on with my thread.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
Jakarta is definitely on the radar for me. Thanks for the detailed post, Cool Runnings.
I'll have to check it out next year...I already booked a Ho Chi Minh trip for this fall.
Anyway, I noticed you are Korean-American. How receptive were the locals of your game and looks?
Is the KWave trend upping the value of Koreans and Korean-Americans there?
Do they try to practice Korean with you?
I'm asking because I got a lot of that in Davao on my latest trip. Several girls asked to take pics with me in malls just because I'm Korean even though I look nothing like those Korean celebs they love lol

"How receptive were the locals of your game and looks?"

They were very receptive. Some of the locals thought I was either Indo-Chinese, Japanese, Hong Kong, Singaporean etc... I've never had a Indonesian girl blow me out, if anything they were always curious about where I'm from. Especially being a Korean-American, they notice how fluent my English is and how my clothing and hair style is much different from your typical Korean guy from Korea.

"Is the KWave trend upping the value of Koreans and Korean-Americans there?"

It's no secret that Korean movies, drama, music is very popular all over Asia (including Indonesia). Even though I don't watch or listen to any of that stuff I know how popular it is. I would say it would up your value a little bit (maybe), but don't solely rely on that. Doesn't really matter what ethnicity you are. If you look good, dress well and have social/game skills you'll do fine here.

"Do they try to practice Korean with you?"

Haha by practice they just say "Oppa" to me all the time lol.

At the end of the day just focus on being yourself. Yes you will run into those Korean Groupie Hunters who love nothing more then to hang out with you. But not all those girls will be attractive or have good English skills etc... Shit if you're an attractive dude of any ethnicity they'll always be some girl out there that will want you.

RE: The Asian Guy Travel Thread
I may actually enjoy hearing them call me oppa just as much as they enjoy saying it! It's another feeling when a non-korean calls you oppa haha.
For the most part, the pinays in Davao were very surprised at my accent and would keep complimenting my English ability lol.
For guys who are experienced with pinays, I'm sure you are well-aware of what they call "nosebleed." It means speaking English gives them such a headache that they feel like they are getting a nosebleed! I didn't encounter this in Thailand even though the average Thai speaks worse English than the average pinoy. Maybe they have a similar term there that I'm not aware of?

I've had some success using Ukrainedate and almost nothing from Tinder. One girl that actually met up with me the next day was terribly unhappy about my height being 176cm. She was a feminist Tinderslut with copious make up. A solid 7. She was obsessed about height and kept bringing it up. I reframed with "you are obsessed with height. I'd rather be liked for my accomplishments than something I am born with and have no control over." It shut her up but it wasn't enough. I was pretty shocked at how entitled some girls here are.

I've been swiping for a week and it seems like Asian male phenotype isn't well received here. A few girls think my body looks okay because I lift but it's a small minority.

Flaunting wealth, provider game isn't as effective as I imagined it to be. I expected poor girls begging me to take them home with me but the girls with smartphone and internet access tend to be happy with their circumstances.

Most women here aren't obsessed with Caucasian phenotype and height but online these seem to correlate to female interest.

I'll write more as the results come.

Little bit late to the party again...but you need to spend more time on the streets next time you travel opposed to being obsessed about "race" via online game.

One guy I've traveled with is a 40+ year old Asian guy who lied about his age being around 30ish. He is older than me & looks exponentially older as well..however, he's gotten way better matches than I have when it comes to EE/FSU/South American gals on Tinder, online, etc.

Stop taking this to heart too much.

Will be based out of Zurich for half a year for work. Happy to meet up with folks who pass through. Will try to do as much traveling as possible on the weekends. (Switzerland is not a particularly promising market outside of expats/tourists)
