She accused me of only liking Asian women for stereotypical reasons like subservience or something" Crazy world, isn't it, when other people think they have the right to express their opinions on who you choose to date! If a man likes Asian women, that's fine. If a man likes a woman who is subservient, that's fine too - it's all fine so long as both are happy. It's no one else's business. (But, funny thing is, the very idea of 'subvervient Asian woman' is itself a stereotype. In all my years in Asia and all the hundreds of western-asian couples I've met and spoken to, I've yet to meet more than a tiny handful! LOL) All the best and wishing you continued happiness, Marcus Hi,
