ya, he's part chinese but he has been known to say that he considers himself "black". i think someone's a little ashamed of their oriental background. ^I don't think it necessarily means he's "ashamed" of his oriental background if he considers himself as 'black'. There is a difference between acknowledging your background, and what you consider yourself to be. If he grew up as an African-American without any Chinese influence whatsoever, then in my view, by considering himself 'Black', he is just being real with who he is. A generalisation, but I would say the smaller the fraction of one ethnicity that somebody has, the lesser that ethnicity influences their life. eg. Someone who is 1/16 Native American is likely to have less Native American influence in their life than someone who is 1/2 Native American (like I said though, it's not always the case, it's just a generalisation). If somebody was 1/16 Black but had no idea about the experience of African-Americans, yet went around claiming to be Black (as opposed to acknowledging this fraction of their ethnic makeup), some people would describe this action as being 'fake'. Perhaps it depends on why that person is making such a claim though. Nevertheless, I still think it's good to acknowledge what your ethnic makeup is, however it doesn't always necessarily correlate with how you feel or what you identify yourself as. Just a few things to consider - feel free to agree/disagree, or post your thoughts on the matter. --------------------------- Oh, and I realise I'm in a thread for the ladies, so I might as well add to it before I get called to GTFO Craig Wing, a filipino EA brutha: Up to EAN's women if he's eye candy or not.

Haha. I was half joking. Based on appearance, first impression-wise... I would have never guessed he had some Chinese in him. My sister says you can tell in the eyes. ya, he's part chinese but he has been known to say that he considers himself "black". i think someone's a little ashamed of their oriental background. ^I don't think it necessarily means he's "ashamed" of his oriental background if he considers himself as 'black'.

Due to complaints from women in another thread about a lack of recent updates here, I feel like I need to represent the EA brothas in this thread. That, and the female EA eye candy thread has now caught up to this thread in terms of pages. Up the the ladies though if he is approved.

I can't help but think he'd be more attractive if he wasn't
A) Always squatting
and
B) Chewing on a bale of hay.

Rob,don't make me power trip on your posts again. LaFace,you have redeemed yourself by posting my foine half-polynesian bradda,Jason Momoa.used to HATE having to watch stargate:atlantis with the boy until i figured out i could secretly ogle momoa for the whole show. less clean cut pics (and no hay or squatting): (^ in character as Ronan) and he's tall.i'm hoping Lisa Bonet will step aside with dignity so jason and i can be together.

YES. that is the best photo of him. appropriate amount of scruffiness but not to the point where it looks grimey / dirty. i'm just not very fond of the metrosexual look. and he's tall.i'm hoping Lisa Bonet will step aside with dignity so jason and i can be together.

^ At least we would know he had a sense of humour.
It looks like it was photoshopped there.. Actually it looks like he was photoshopped into those backgrounds as well..
