       I got intimate with him, she was HORRIFIED, she was so angry
       that she wanted to end her life. She was acting as though I
       committed a crime. Her reasoning is because she thought I would
       want to marry him. It was a full on 9 hour long argument full of
       her drinking away her "pain" and yelling that I've made a
       mistake.

       When I asked her about it she said she just cant shake the fact
       that I am with someone so below me and that I can do so much
       better. Although she constantly says "if only he was white, then
       it would be perfect!"

       explains the attitude. When I talked to a white guy who also
       doesn't have that much money, she was ecstatic.

       It is very hard to point this out to most people as they would
       call it sour grapes except for those who favour marrying within
       their own ethnic group or religion where most people are not
       “white”.
       If China and India were the most powerful countries in the
       world, with KPOP and Bollywood as #1, would we then witness
       “Asiacentrism”?

       I doubt it, considering that Eurocentrism predated the colonial
       era:

       which suggests that it is at least partially caused by factors
       unrelated to power.

       Reasoning behind Hispanics voted for Trump:

       Probably crab mentality of hating everyone who did not made it
       across the wall.
       [/Quote]
       There could be a deeper reason:
       They want the U.S to remain a "White" majority country because
       they view other Hispanics as intrasexual competition for "White"
       women.

       I am starting to wonder if more Hispanic men voting for Trump
       and more Hispanic women voting for Harris has anything to do
       with the conquistadors being overwhelmingly male, hence the
       "white" component in the gene pool of the colonized populations
       being overwhelmingly patrilineal and thus its tendencies more
       likely to be expressed among males. Thoughts?

       This could be true. But conquistador blood, even if not
       expressed among females, would still manifest in reproductive
       Eurocentrism among women. But this Eurocentrism would not
       necessarily cause them to vote for Trump, but rather cause them
       to be sexually attracted to Trump supporters.
       So you might be correct.
