Love is Love and Marriage is more complicated than LOVE.

爱情就是爱情，但婚姻比爱情要复杂得多

Many years ago when i went on a trip i saw a family, husband was definitely Indian and wife was Japanese. Her mother was also with them and as a kid i remember thinking “Wow, they are so white and has big round face”.

许多年前我旅行的时候遇到过一个家庭，丈夫是百分百的印度人，太太是日本人。太太的母亲也跟他们一起居住。那会儿我还是个孩子，我记得当时脑子想的是“哇哦，她们看起来皮肤真白，脸真圆呢”

2015 Miss Japan was Ms Priyanka Yoshikawa - Wikipedia Who’s father is from Bengal India. Unfortunately She doesn't recognize her half Indian side and consider as Japanese Only. Even though Her great-grandfather Prafulla Chandra Ghosh was the first Chief Minister of West Bengal.

2015年的日本小姐是吉川普莉安卡，维基百科显示她的父亲来自孟加拉印度。可惜的是，她不承认自己50%的印度血统，她认为自己就是日本人。尽管她的曾祖父普拉弗拉钱德拉高希曾是西孟加拉邦的第一任首席部长。

If you search YouTube you will find some Indian Japanese wedding videos. Some are NRIs and 3nd generation Japanese settled in USA.

如果你在YouTube上搜索，你能看到一些印度日本联姻的婚礼视频。其中一些是旅美印度人和定居在美国的第三代日本人。

Basically A Inter- nation, Inter faith marriage needs lots of adjustment and understanding. Either Boy had lived as expat in Japan for long (there are few people) or Japanese girl would come and work in India and stay for a while (Very rare). As i only mentioned Indian Men and Japanese women because I have yet to stumble upon such case where Japanese Man married Indian women. There could be, but its less than Indian men marry Japanese Girl.

基本上跨民族，跨信仰的婚姻需要很多的妥协和理解。不管是长期生活在日本的印度男孩（数量很少），或者来印度工作一段时间的日本女孩(也非常罕见)。我只提到了印度男人和日本女人，是因为我还没遇见过日本男人娶印度女人的例子。可能也有，但会比印度男人和日本女人的婚姻组合少。

When you find some one special to marry within your community finance matters a little less than this International marriages. Usually women do look at financial situation of a person before decide to marry and if boy is Financially strong then it favors the marriage. (Its another thing if both are struggling)

当你遇到心仪的相同族群的结婚对象，结婚时对另一半的经济因素考虑会比跨国婚姻来的少一些。通常情况下，女性会在决定结婚前考虑另一半的财务状况，如果男方的经济实力较强，那么结婚就比较容易。(如果双方经济都不宽裕，则另当别论)

In case of marriage, one of the side has to make compromise and leave the country and settling in new country with new culture is not easy job/

谈婚论嫁时，一方需要作出妥协，离开祖国到新的国家定居，接受新的文化，这可并非易事。

So even if Japanese women like Indian men, its bit tough for them to decide to go ahead and marry. Culture, beliefs, religion, food habits, financial situation etc many things affect when decision about marriage will be taken. So it changes on many levels of these variants changes.

所以就算日本女孩爱上印度男人，她们也很难下定决心迈出结婚的那一步。文化、信仰、宗教、饮食习惯、经济状况等等，做出婚姻决定前，要考虑各方面的影响。

So if men decided to stay in Japan then Japanese women may decide to say yes upon proposal.

如果一个男人决定留在日本，那日本女人可能会答应求婚。

Since Japanese people are still homogeneous, they are not use to inter racial marriages (In India as well). Mixed race Kids often bullied in Japan and are called as Hafu, They will have bit tough environment growing up. People wont accept completely.

日本人的人种还是比较单一的，他们不习惯跨种族的婚姻(在印度也是如此)。混血儿在日本经常被欺负，被称为“Hafu”，他们在成长过程中会面临一些困扰。人们并不会完全接纳他们。

Here is an Indian Japanese couple.

这里有一对儿印度-日本夫妇。

I guess it happens, as Indians are marrying chines. Koreans, Africans etc. Today world is more open to each other a lot more than it was 20 yrs ago. That changes a lots of things.

我猜这种事儿时有发生，印度人跟、韩国人、非洲人等结婚。跟20年前比，当今的世界愈发开放，改变了许多事。

I am not sure on how I am adding to this post but i feel digressed when i read the post, the question is about the Indian Men and not about the country and comparison of the two countries. I am not sure, how bath tubs, food habits, road structure and Infrastructure of a country has something to do with Love or liking. I think the very basic condition of love or likeliness is attraction, not the race to which a person belongs.Wondering can the question be generalized that can women like a person from a specific region, its a personal choice and not related to the country. I would agree that people have a perception in mind but that is just a perception, you have to break it and move ahead and talk to the each other without being stereotype and carrying an impression in your mind and that's how the relation works, its not good to judge people just by their race, caste, color or any other identification. In case, its related to race then ideally a Japanese women should like all Japanese men but its never so, its just finding the right one and that can be any one.

我不清楚我该如何回复，但我看帖时觉得跑题了。问题是关于印度男人，而不是印度这个国家，也不是两个国家之间的对比。我不清楚一个国家的浴缸、饮食习惯、道路和城市建设跟爱情或好感有什么关系。我认为爱情、好感的根本条件是吸引力，而不是人种。这个问题是不是可以概括为女性是否会喜欢某一地区的人，这是个人选择，与国家无关。我承认人们心中都会有一点固有观念，你必须打破固有观念，超前走，摒弃心中的刻板的印象跟所有人沟通，这才是建立关系的方法。根据人种、种姓、肤色或其他特征来判断别人是很糟糕的。如果它与种族有关，那么最理想的情况是日本女性应该喜欢所有的日本男性，但事实并非如此，只关乎是否找到了对的人，这个人可以是任何人。

For getting committed for a long term relationship, the answer is YES, Indian guys can find suitable Japanese girls. The more homely and conservative kind of girls of Japan speak honestly and like to have a true and deep relationship. They can be very shy initially and turn very sweet if you reciprocate their feelings. Getting a formal start with these girls is easy. But continuing with them through text messages is a severe pain. You need extreme levels of patience as they initially take time to allocate time for you in their hectic schedule. They can take one or two days to reply you. College girls have lots of homeworks and also do part time jobs and hence don't have much time for socializing. Working women can be comparatively better in responding to you. If you get overenthusiastic with their replies and try to extend the chat, they get to think that you can be a potential nuisance and they gradually start to reduce their chats. But if you strike a balance and gradually (very slowly) win their trust, they would find time for you and go out with you. Golden rules like physical advancements at third date doesn't hold good with Japanese girls. Spend time with them, get to understand them and open their hearts. This could get you a “more than you expected” life partner. Indians can find such girls relatively easier than the next type below.

对于长期的恋爱关系，答案是肯定的，印度男人可以找到合适的日本女孩。那种更居家、保守、真诚、并且愿意守护一段真诚而深厚感情的日本女孩。一开始她们会很害羞，如果你回应她们的感情，她们会变得非常可爱。跟这种女孩正式开始谈恋爱不难，但是跟她们用短信交流非常痛苦。你必须非常非常有耐心，她们需要在繁忙的日程计划中拨出一点时间给你，因此可能要等个一两天才会回复你。大学里的女孩子们有很多作业、还要兼职打工，没有太多社交的时间。职场女性可能会好一些，但如果你太过热情，想要多聊聊，她们又会觉得你可能会是一个讨厌鬼，然后就开始不怎么搭理你了。如果你可以一步步打动她们取得她们的信任，她们会愿意跟你一起出去玩的。给你一个金科玉律，第三次约会前都不要跟日本女孩有肢体接触。花点时间陪她们，试着了解她们，打开她们心结。这能让你收获一个“超乎意料”的人生伴侣。

For casual flings, Indian guys have to literally punch above their weight. The girls for casual dating and flings idolize the Western supremacy. An English speaking white guy can be an instant eye turner for these kind of girls. Most often you will be avoided (this is a subtle, involuntary, yet consistent kind of racism shown by most girls of this type, not all). Perhaps if you are an active flirter with acceptable looks and good fitness, you can be successful in casual pickups. But again, it's next to impossible if a white guy starts to compete with you. Black guys also seem to have an advantage over Indian men (for obvious reasons). But after you get over the super tough initial stumble, you might learn the trick to find success in subsequent casual flings.

印度男人还面临更强有力的对手。比较随便的女孩们更崇拜西方人。说英语的白人能轻易吸引这种女孩。大多数情况下，你就被忽略了。如果你更有情调、五官端正、身材健硕，你也会成功跟她们搭讪。但是如果有个白人出现，跟你竞争，你绝对做不到。黑人似乎也比印度人更有优势。但是如果你克服了最初的种种困难，你会找到秘诀的。

Whatever kind of women you are looking for, don't lose hope, keep trying. Japanese women are kind of exotic and sophisticated when compared to other asian countries. Try your best efforts to speak Japanese, girls find your mistakes to be extremely cute. Having a well maintained beard may either go for or against you (can't exactly place it). Be well groomed, slightest body odor (and perhaps dandruff) can make you loose all the brownie points that you had scored earlier. Most girls are fond of cats and small dogs, use it for extending your chats. Positive comments on their eyes can get you gains. Comparing their cuteness to dolphins and/or the moon can make them go week on their knees..! They are also amused by specific Indian topics such as Taj Mahal, yoga, Himalayas, naan and curry, these can come in handy..!

不管你想找哪种女人，别放弃希望，努力尝试，日本女人跟其他亚洲国家的女性相比，极富异域风情，非常精致。尽量说日语，女孩们会觉得你说错话非常可爱。给胡子好好造型，这事有利有弊。好好打扮自己，遮盖自己的体臭或头皮屑，都能让你摆脱棕色人种的偏见。大多数女孩喜欢猫啊，狗啊，多聊点这方面的话题。多夸夸她们的眼睛，会给你加分哦。将她们的可爱比作海豚、月亮、会让她们沦陷！她们还喜欢印度的泰姬陵、瑜伽、喜马拉雅、馕和咖喱，这些迟早派得上用场。

Ganbatte kudasai..!!

PS: These are personal observations and opinions from other guys from the Indian Subcontinent. The topic as such, warrants the use of racist comments. I am extremely sorry if any of these remarks hurt anyone as I never intended to.

这些都是印度人的观察体会。如果这些评论伤到了谁，我很抱歉，我无意这样。

As this question is anonymous I have a hunch that probably you are an Indian male interested in Japanese women/woman.

既然这个问题是匿名提问，我有一种预感，或许提问者就是对日本女性感兴趣的印度男性

If that's the case let me tell you one thing-

如果是这样的话，我跟你说件事

Love is not a simple mathematical equation, where if LHS=RHS the problem is solved and you can live happily ever after. There is a X factor going on always, which can make two extreme opposite personalities fall in love with each other OR two people who had mutual respect, affection and share a lot of common things become friends rather than lovers.

爱情不是简单的数学方程式，不是等号左边等于等号右边这种可以解答然后万事大吉的题目。恋爱的路上有个X未知因素总是如形随形，它能让两个完全不一样的人陷入爱河，也可以让两个互相尊重互相爱慕，拥有许多共同爱好的人，止步于朋友的关系。

So, if even Japanese women were head over heels for Indian men, then too there is no assurance they will like you, instead to your great frustration you can see all Indian men you know are getting Japanese lovers and mysteriously they are overlooking you.

所以就算日本女性为印度男人神魂颠倒，她们也可能不会喜欢你，你可能会很郁闷地发现你认识的所有印度男人都有日本女朋友，而你，很奇怪地，总是被遗忘的那一个。

In the same way, Japanese women may hate Indians in general but, thanks to that X-factor they all may find you most eligible bachelor on this planet.

同样的，日本女性可能总体上讨厌印度人，但有个这个神秘的X未知因素，她们可能会觉得你是这个地球上最棒的单身汉。

“All hail to x”

你好，X

Well as many people have already mentioned. Liking a person goes beyond Nationality. It goes way deeper than that alone. I may like someone within my own nationality or other based on preferences, comfort level, companionship and so on.

就像很多人提到的那样。喜欢一个人是超越国界的。我可能喜欢本国人或国外人，要看个人偏好、相处是否舒服、是否能够相互陪伴等等。

I have had a few Japanese friends over the years. Some of them were quite open to dating Indian men. We did share some common interests - could be movies, cooking, baking, rock climbing, exploring language, politics etc. Its always been a nice experience. I have met them abroad, so they tend to have greater exposure to worldly matters. Awareness is more. Japanese woman in Japan may fit the stereotype of not being too fond of South Asian men and preferring Europeans and Americans.

这些年来我也有了一些日本朋友。其中一些对跟印度人交往持开放态度。我们有一样的爱好，比如电影啦，烹饪啦，烘焙啦，攀岩啦、语言学习啦、政治时事啦等等。我是在海外认识她们的，所以她们对世间百态更能接受，住在日本的日本女性可能比较古板，她们对南亚男人不感冒，更喜欢欧洲人和美国人。

A lot of them I met outside, who had exposure were very keen to becoming friends and pursuing a future ahead. So I will add the dimension of exposure which makes them more open to dating and possibly marrying men of South Asian Descent. They are quite enamoured with the mystics of history, spirtuality, science, yoga, beyond the Bollywood’s and Chicken Tikka’s. They were quite interested and intrigued owing to the life experiences, intellect beyond regional background.

我在海外认识的日本人中，有大多数都乐于交朋友，勇于探索未来。她们可能对于跟南亚口音的人约会甚至结婚的事儿，持开放态度。她们痴迷于神秘的历史、荥阳、科学、瑜伽、宝莱坞电影和烤鸡块。

So again, like every other nationality, it comes down to open mindedness and exposure which makes them comfortable with the idea of a foreign partner.

所以，还是那句话，就像所有其他民族一样，心态要开放，才能更愿意接受外国配偶。

I have two close friends from India (actually they were born in India and moved to other countries). I met one of them when he was doing intern in Japan and I met the other girl when she came to Japan for travel. I can't explain well the difference from other Indians, but they are open minded and asked me lots of questions and showed their interest towards Japan or myself. For other people from India I met, they were all IT engineers and they came to Japan just because they got a job here. Non of them seemed like they were interested in Japan or the culture and conversation with them didn't last long. If they are not interested in Japanese culture, I think they should find a Japanese woman who are interested in Indian culture.

我有两个印度来的好朋友（他们生于印度，但已经移居其他国家）。其中一个是在日本当实习生时认识的，另一个女生是来日本旅行认识的。我解释不来，但是他们和其他印度人不一样，他们思想更为开放，问了我许多问题，我能看出他们想要了解日本和我本人的兴趣。我知道的其他印度人，都是IT工程师，他们只是因为工作来到日本。他们似乎对日本一点兴趣都没有。每次跟他们聊天都聊不到一块儿。如果他们对日本文化没兴趣，他们应该找一个对印度文化感兴趣的日本女性。

Why is this question even here - it is a very irrelevant thing. Anyway I shall try to answer from my perspective.

为什么还会有这种问题？这太让人讨厌了。但是，我还是想从我的角度回答一下。

There is no single answer to this, but based on my experiences I have observed that the more mature and well traveled Japanese women are apparently neutral, and if you have a definite interest in Japan, they appreciate much.

这个问题没有唯一答案，但从我的经历看，我观察到到处旅行的成熟日本女性会更中立一些，如果你对日本有兴趣，她们会更认可你。

About university or young adults - I have absolutely no Idea.

至于大学生和年轻姑娘，我完全没有概念。

Since I knew Japanese and had a thing for their movies (not into manga and Anime that much), I could start a conversation depending on the place and the person. Well I would not start a discussion with someone whom I perceive would be unable to quench my insatiable curiosity about culture and philosophy. Hence I often choose people who were intellectually capable (apparently), and engaged in various pubs/eateries and even office.

我了解日本人，我很喜欢日本电影，我可以根据场合和对象开始和他们聊天。如果我觉得对方无法满足我对文化和哲学的好奇心，我不会跟他讨论的。因此，我经常选择有文化的人交流，穿梭于各种酒吧、居酒屋甚至办公室。

Well every one has a stereo type about all races, but when you talk your inner qualities come to the surface, and that applies to everyone. If the question is about getting laid - then there are ample places to do it in Japan by paying or free.

每个人对各个人种都有刻板印象，但如果你深入交流，每个人都一样。如果这个问题是关于上床，在日本可是有超多的地方可去，付费或免费的都有。

I lived in Ebisu and Nihonbashi neighborhoods which have a large cosmopolitan network and there were westerners who had married japanese women and settled down. So being close to them I got gradually introduced to many japanese women who were culturally aware or well traveled and were the least prejudiced.

我住在日本的惠比寿和日本桥一带，这里外国人很多，西方人和日本女性结婚定居于此。跟他们相处久了，我慢慢接触到很多日本女性，她们很有人文意识，经常各地旅行，最没有偏见。

Though I wasnt interested in dating as I was already engaged, still had a memorable time going out for the occasional Karoke, or having copious amounts of sake together in the local Izakaya. Being a proud drinker I am, usually I have the knack of getting to know the pubs and the owners wherever I go - across the world. Which leads to getting to know other patron gradually, discussion about politics, philosophy and the network grows. Eventually leading to friendships irrespective of gender, and wonderful memories. Brotherhood of the drunken and free.

我已经订婚了，对约会不感兴趣，但我还对偶尔的唱K、在居酒屋狂饮记忆深刻。我很能喝酒，基本上我跟我去过的世界各地的酒吧老板都挺熟。我因此认识了很多主顾，跟他们讨论政治、哲学和世界关系。最后我跟他们建立了友谊，无关乎性别，这些都是美好的回忆。

However if you want me to be very neutral about perspective about India in Japan - I can very well say the top foreigners are Americans, Europeans (Whites) as usual all over the world including India, then surprisingly Blacks finally Browns. I am still trying to find why, but have left Japan before I could do so.

但如果你想让我对旅日印度人非常客观中立，我只能说，最受欢迎的外国人还是美国人和欧洲人，然后是出人意料的黑人，最后才是棕色人种。

Anyone can like anyone based on the situations and conditions. I know a Canadian guy of Indian descent who worked in the US at a Japanese run school for Autistic children. He dated two Japanese women he worked with, of which the second he married. They moved back to Canada and have a daughter. I think part of what made the relationship possible was that he was into Japanese culture and hung out with a lot of the Japanese staff at the school.

在不同情况和条件下，任何人都可以喜欢任何人。我认识一名印度裔加拿大人，他曾在美国一家日本人开办自闭症儿童学校工作。他和他的两个日本女同事约会过，他跟第二个约会的对象结婚了。他们搬回加拿大，生了一个女儿。我认为促成这段关系的一部分原因是他融入了日本文化，并和学校里的很多日本员工玩到一起。

Let me answer this question like this way

What makes Indian men different from others

Now most of our fellow Indian don't know exactly about his own people . Now 2nd thing I know it out of my personal experience ... I. A relationship or for a marriage 3 things are very important

LANGUAGE , SOCIAL AND CULTURAL KNOWLEDGE AND MENTAL FITNESS (WHY I SAIF MENTAL FITNESS IS BCOZ A MATURE MIND IS NOT ENOUGH IF HE OR SHE CANT RELATE TO ANOTHER MIND)

Now I have seen Japanese or Korean or such people are comfortable with northeast Indians rather than other Indians . There are few couples I have meet during my professional life .

Example life a German girl married to an northeast Indian for last 16 years and lives at tinsukia of Assam state. 2 couples I have meet during hornbill festival of arunachal , they are happily married for last 18 years with 2 son .

In Nagaland beat boxng championship I have meet 4 more couples .

So what I have understood with those experience for a marriage one need to communicate and for that you need a common language skills . That. Your life style and values of life must shrink to each other ..

Even for me , I am from Assam and my girlfriend is from Canada . We are in relationship for last 6 years and she is living here in Shillong with my family for last 2 years .

So first satisfaction of those 3 common element that. Every relationship works with any where in the world

Communicate to express not to impress for that one need a common language. Second mental fitness with MATURE mind to eliminate the differences between both CULTURE and social values and finally freedom of life

Majority of world assumes Indians follows the Indian family traditional rules but in my society that's not true

It's up to our choice what we will wear , what kind of girl I want to get married etc

And don't to be offended if we compare the northeast society and culture than its much more open than rest of India ..

That why other foreign girls hesitate about Indian men . My girlfriend also had some confusion about my society but in last two years she found not much differences with her own society except the traditional dresses and few local languages .. that's it ...

Good luck

(T9 ty may cause some word misspelled )

让我这样回答这个问题吧

印度男人和其他男人有什么不同呢？

现在大部分印度人对自己的同胞也知之甚少。

从我个人经验看，要结婚的话，有3件事是非常重要的：

语言、对社会文化的了解以及精神契合（任何一方如果无法在精神上融入对方，光有成熟的心智也是不够的）

我看到日本人、韩国人等可以跟北印度人更处得来。我曾见过几对这样的夫妇。

其中有个德国女人嫁给北印度男人，结婚16年，住在阿萨姆邦的丁书吉亚。还有两对结婚后幸福地生活了18年，生了2个儿子。

我还在那加兰邦口技冠军赛上，我还遇到过4对夫妇。

所以我对此是这么理解的，双方需要沟通交流，需要有基本的语言能力。你的生活方式和价值观必须相互磨合。

我自己来自于阿萨姆，我的女朋友来自于加拿大。我们已经谈了6年的恋爱，她跟我家人住在西隆2年了。

要沟通交流的话，人们需要共同语言。第二点用契合的精神、成熟的心智来解决文化、社会价值、自由的生活等方方面面的差异

世界上大多数人认为印度人遵循印度家庭传统准则，但在我生活的地方并不是这样

我们自己决定想要穿什么样的衣服，跟什么样的女孩结婚

我把印度东北部和其他更开放的地方作比较，并无冒犯之意。

我女朋友也曾对我生活的地方感到困惑，但一起生活2年后她发现除了传统服装和当地语言外，差异并不比她生活的地方大。

好运。

Honestly, this question is subjective, ridiculous, and quite amusing.

I don’t think race has much to do about it at all really. I think it is based on attraction, nothing more. Attraction being wit, charm, humour, etc... Carnal attraction is important as well, but that’s one piece of the whole.

I am of Irish/English and Southern Indian descent. I am fair-skinned and fairly tall. Quite a few woman I’ve met in Japan have asked me my race, or where I’m from, etc... When I tell them I’m half Indian they’re usually gobsmacked. However, it has yet to put a damper on the conversation.. in truth they’ve seemed more interested in my heritage after that.

Furthermore, I’m covered in tattoos! So, no matter what others may tell you tattoos are very much a taboo here(at least in Osaka), even as a gaiin. Even then it hasn’t really stopped my conversations, rather quite the opposite. Yes, I do get stares and people whispering about me but that happened even when I was living back home.

Truth is, humans like to lump ourselves up by commonality. “He’s ‘insert race’ like me so we have common ground”, “she speaks ‘random language’ that I feel more natural speaking in so I’ll chat her”; so yes, women from Japan may not inherently be attracted to men from India. But I believe all people impartial to race are intrinsically attracted to a person who will treat them well, respect them, and consider them as equals. Unless you’re racist or a sexual bigot, then you suck.

So, to answer this farcical question. Yes, no, and maybe.

Be bold. Go find out yourself rather then asking opinions from others who aren’t you. I think you’ll be surprised with the answer you find. ;)

坦率地说，这个问题非常主观、荒谬也挺搞笑。

我认为人种跟这件事没太大关系。关键是有没有相互吸引，比如才华、魅力、幽默感等等，肉体的吸引也很重要，但也不过是其中一小部分。

我是爱尔兰和南印度混血。我肤色白，个子高。我在日本遇到的很多女人都问我是什么人种，我从哪儿来。我跟她们说我有一半印度血统时，他们都大吃一惊。但是也没有对我们的谈话受到影响，事实上她们对我的传统更加感兴趣了。

再来，我有纹身。就算别人跟你说这里禁止纹身，我们的交流也没有停下。我总是引人注目，大家对我评头论足，不过我在家乡也是一样的。

事实上，人类是群居动物。“他很像我，我们有共同之处”“她说的话让我觉得舒服，我要跟她聊天”；没错，日本女人不会天生被印度男人吸引。但是没有偏见的人会相互吸引，相互尊重，平等相待。

所以这个问题的答案，是或者不是，都有可能

大胆追求，自己去尝试，别人的意见代替不了你自己的想法。

I don't wanna be rude here. But since I don't wanna be dishonest either, I'm going to say this anyway.

Indian men are not at all appealing to me as an Indian woman itself. And no, I'm not talking about looks or any such shallow thing. Indian men have a bad mentality regarding women, love, sex and relationships. Don't get me wrong, I didn't say Indian men suck. In fact, my male friends have been much closer to me in times of need. They make great friends and are very good people if you're their mom, sister, friend, daughter or colleague. But when it comes to relationships, they don't do very well. They don't know how to talk to a woman they are interested in, they have a very bad mentality regarding women(like they are sex objects) and that women shouldn't have a sex drive else they are sluts etc. Indian men have pretty bad notions regarding these topics.

If you're not a 'typical Indian male' then you might have a chance. But if you talk about the overall image, Indian men don't really have a good image all over the world.

Sad but true.

我不想表现得无礼，但既然我也不想说谎，我还是要这样说

我作为印度女人，印度男人对我来说一点吸引力也没有。我说的不是外表或其他肤浅的东西。印度男人对女人、爱情、性爱和恋爱都心态欠佳。别误会，不是说印度男人糟糕透顶的意思。事实上，在我需要的时候，我的男性朋友跟我关系更加亲密。如果你是他们的妈妈、姐妹、朋友、女儿或同事，他们是很棒的朋友，很棒的人。但如果是谈恋爱，他们表现并不算好。他们不知道如何跟心仪的女人聊天，他们对待女人心态欠佳（好像她们只是上床的对象），女人不该有性冲动，否则她们就是荡妇。

如果你们不是典型的印度男人，你们还有机会。但如果要说整体印象，印度男人给全世界人的印象都不咋地。

从我个人经验出发，没错，她们会喜欢的。18岁的时候，我在一个伦敦的夜店遇到了千寻，一个可爱的个子小小的日本姑娘。我们维持了一年的狂热床伴关系，实在太好玩了。我是印度人，虽然我18岁的时候长得像宝莱坞电影明星，但很遗憾，我现在50了，身材走样还谢顶了。

我们的女孩更喜欢本国的男孩，或者西方白人，这才是正常的回答

Japanese you don't have to be so polite, okay?

Maybe not, but you don't need EVERY woman in Japan to think you're the greatest thing ever. You only need one.

可能不会，但你也不需要每一个日本女人都觉得你是最棒的啊，你只需要一个就够了。
