"Griege" is the description of the type of white
man who is attracted to asian women. They appreciate and wear rather unfortunate shades between grey and beige, particularly brands like Rockport, Timberland, and Tevas with woolly socks. They are interested in
Asian cultures and are often white boys who lived in Japan for a year or two teaching English or else anthropologists and appreciators of hokey world
music.
Unlike other words describing
white men attracted to asian women (eg yellow fever), the term is perjorative only to the
man, and is most often used by asian women who are sick of being pursued by greige individuals.
