[UPDATE: Our S.W.A.G. Test for Asian Men is getting slammed! Please be patient if you don’t get your test results immediately as the script is processing like mad with the influx of test takers. In the meantime, read more about how and why we came up with the Sexual Market Value Quiz with expanded info here.]

After teaching over ten thousand Asian men to be successful in the realm of confidence and dating, I’ve been able to see a pattern of traits and behavioral patterns of Asian men (whether you were born overseas or in America) that either increase or decrease their dating market value as a man, especially within the context of either fighting against or unconsciously conforming to emasculating stereotypes, and correspondingly how women react and treat him.

Dating market value (or sexual market value) is a soft measurement of how women perceive you as a potential dating or sexual partner, especially with respect to your competition (other non-Asian men who don’t have the same kind of negative stereotypes that we do). Are you marriage material? Boyfriend material? or “let’s just be friends” material?

This 40 question quiz is specifically calibrated for Asian men because most dating market value tests are written by and according to white guys. They don’t account for things like accents, cultural and physical differences (yes, these things can impact women’s perceptions of you) because we’re a minority and Asian features aren’t a problem for white male privilege. When it comes to rating Asian men, dating market value calculators just don’t go far enough to cover our unique traits and mannerisms nor does it take into account the differences between Asian men born overseas versus immigrant Asian Americans.

So be brutally honest as you answer these 40 questions. The more real and honest your answer, the more accurate your score and how you rank in the eyes of women will be. And from there, you’ll know if you’ve “got it made” or where you need to work on in order to be a more successful, confident, and romantically happy Asian man.

Your score and rank will be automatically emailed to you once you’ve finished. [SO CHECK YOUR EMAIL’S SPAM FILTER IF YOU DON’T RECEIVE YOUR SCORE WITHIN A FEW MINUTES!]

Dating Market Value Calculator for Asian Men

Note 1: This is for calculating your dating market value in relation to other non-Asian women, it will still apply to Asian women with some few differences (like how Asian women will understand why you live with your parents and not give you negative points, but every other women will judge you harshly).

Note 2: This calculator only takes into account your passive value with some lifestyle and social aspects taken into consideration. This is about the value your first impression gives her and NOT the long term relationship or sexual value, although many of the questions you answer are implied and carry over into that form of value. It also does not factor in (though some questions do) your technical skillset like conversation, banter, or “Game.” This is for that first (or near first) impression women have of you and on which line you fall under in their mind: Are you dateable? Or not dateable?

NOTE 3: There are some answers that could go either positive or negative depending on the girl that you’re interacting with. For example, wearing colored eye contacts will turn on some girls while freaking out others. Same thing what happens with peacocking with items from Hot Topic and such. In this particular calculator, we just made it a positive, but be aware that those items are polarizing to women and can swing you either way. Then there were some items where (like body or facial hair) it didn’t matter either way, just that if you had facial hair, it was trimmed and not a scraggly rat’s nest. It’s the Polarizing Effect where you want people to either hate you or love you, but you don’t want them to feel lukewarm towards you.
