Asian Male - White Female relationships/fantasi es on the rise?

Not something I used to notice, but I live in a very multicultural city in Canada and now see it everywhere. Most often it's been the inverse, with White Men often courting the most attractive Asian Women because they can (economic power, political status etc.) and it's never been known as a taboo in North America(because White Men can get away with anything.) But as Women are getting more economic and political power the past few decades, they seem to be using freedom of choice much more. Their relationships with Black Males has always seemed to be No.1 for interracial relationships, but now it seems they are finding Asian Males to be their partners faster than ever.

Anyone else notice the trend? Does anyone think it's limited to just certain regions?
