I white man who was born in the southern United States of America.

There is a girl in one of my community college classes who was born in Vietnam, but she immigrated to American 9 years ago. She is currently 18. She has been behaving as if she is attracted to me. I'm 36 and I'm ready to settle down and start a family and I've heard that Vietnamese girls are uber loyal and make really good wives.

I want to ask her out, but I don't know anything about her culture that I didn't learn from a war movie and don't know how to go about asking her. I don't want to blow it and I'm afraid I may do something offensive.

How do I ask a Vietnamese girl out on a date?

Do I ask her father?
