That’s been my experience in China—I can remember meeting only one instance of a western girl with a Chinese guy, but it seems that over half western guys had Chinese girlfriends. I don’t know if expat men actually prefer dating local women, since the vast majority of girls there are local.
But then my experience has been slightly different, as I spent more time in student circles than in working expat circles.
