Whats the definition of Asian also ............ its a big old place!!
I am from the school where Asian means ..... Indian / Pakistani / Bangladeshi
As east Asians were no as numerous in the UK they tended to be defined by the country they were from , or from the less well adjusted "chinese" was used as a coverall for all from east asia.

My guess, it is based on most obvious approach, so Asians = Chinese-like (China, Koreas, Japan etc), Indians would probably fall under black.
Also to be noted is apparently a very law margin/rate especially for women.
Still find interesting that black women supposingly do not prefer white men.

From what I know of a number of them when I used to work in downtown Washington DC (94% black population) this is very true.

Then my guess about Indians falling under "black" is incorrect.

x9200 for next president of India ..
well, matter of fact, North Indians are fair and don't like to be called "DARK" or "Black" vs South Indians .. who are more tan/dark skinned .. that's for the national divide ..

Indians are caucasians.
Asia, from the east side, begins in Istanbul, and that flipping huge river (Bosphorus or Phosphorus or some such ) that runs though it. On one side you're in Europe. Walk across the bridge and a mile later you're in Asia. It's quite amusing/thought-provoking having morning coffee in Europe, and ambling off for lunch in Asia, or similar, it makes you think about delineation and 'labels' in a slightly different way*.
