Posts: 592Pretty much the same thing happened to me when I sent messages to Soulman's Blackberry (with an account in the US). English messages were going through fine, both ways. But when I sent him messages in Chinese (directions he can show the taxi drivers), he never received them.

Posts: 3542Direct PRC-Taiwan Links
Direct PRC-Taiwan Links started this week and it spells trouble for us on a couple fronts:
1. Direct bus transport between points in Guangdong (SZ, DGG etc) from Hong Kong, including the airport will see a drastic drop off in patronage; which in turn means that lots of these direct bus routes are gonna be cut. Trouble for us Hong Kongers as well as foreigners coming via HKG.
2. More Taiwanese will nowadays go home more often = less business for the various establishments around China. Will this mean more for us or will it jus result in places closing down?
3. More Taiwanese Wives are gonna commute to the PRC - same question as 2
4. More Taiwanese who didn't use to monger in PRC is nowadays gonna be able to take week-end sex trips to China. OHMIGAWD!!
5. More of our lovely young ladies are gonna end up doing their thing in Taiwan.
Anything else?

For freebies and university students, the possibilities are very high especially if you are at least average looking and Caucasian. The negative side, you will surely lose your job if caught sleeping with your students. If you are on an one year teaching contract, most schools with pay for your plane ticket. Well forget about the ticket going home. For freebies outside of work, in my opinion should NOT be an issue with the school but be very discreet.
Do a search, this subject teacher and student relationship has been discussed many times before. Just last week someone asked the same question.

Posts: 106Text Messaging from US to China
I am back to the States now, but I don't want to lose the contacts with girls that I met in my last trip to china. I bought an iPhone through AT&T. I set languge to Chinese, and able to send a text message in chinese to the girls in china. But when the girls reply my message in chinese, I can't get it, I mean I receive nothing! But if they reply my message in English, I can get it.
Anyone has experience on this issue? Thanks in advance!

The reality of it is that, they do care about money and greencard. She tell her that you are a real nice guy that is currently unemploy, not a red cent in the bank account and hope that one day you will be the next bill gates. I'm sure that you will never hear from them again.
No girl is her right mind will tell you that she wants to marry a rich guy and want to get the heck out of China. You may think she cares a lot about you after chatting with you a few times. But you need to get real, she is probably sending the email you got to ten other guys hoping to bring in a big fish.
Bottom line. Get real and don't get sucker in. read between the line. Just remember, once you marry them, things begin to change. After a few years they become totally westernize. You will be back to china and seeking fun that is no longer available at home.
The only true girlfriend is the wife/mistress/gf of another man. Usually those gals are just a bit more horny, underused due to their man working so much. They are not after money nor greencard. They have all the comforts in society with the exception of getting enough sex. I just love freebies that just want fun. My only warning is to check out her significant other, make sure the guy is not a big official of the Party and get a picture of the dude so that you will know if he ever comes after you.
Living on the danger side is a bit more fun. just my two rmb on this. enjoy china and what it have to offer.

You cannot compare these Asian women with those that were born and raised in China and never been out of the country for longer than a holiday at best.
Yes, the movies have an affect on a few (my scenario for example) to look for the "romanticism" they see, but IMHO, most would prefer security in the comfort of their homeland given the opportunity from a local guy.
Just my POV.

Posts: 32My 2 cents
Have been to China six times now, north and south. I am a professional white male, late 40's, average height, thinning hair, not over weight, but no Brad Pitt for sure. I met so many beauties I lost count, many freebies and a few that were almost free. The gals all loved my size (dick) even if it scared them at first. One of the hottest was a MILF in Beijing late 30's? And a great body. She was employed by a big cell phone company. We fucked for most of three days and she would cum all over me and say " you so good for me". Another gal in SZ was an accountant, very straight laced. Both told me they liked my confidence and not like the arogance of some Chinese guys who were successful. So, I think a lot of it just comes down to attitude. How you carry youself, without acting like some hardass jerk. Be polite, etc. Same stuff your mom told you to do, LOL! Anyway, I had to get my 2 cents in.
Stay safe.

Non whites, minorities, sometimes feel like there are second class citizens.
In my opinion it mainly do to height advantage of Caucasians. Next, seeing plenty of Western movies with Caucasian stars like BLT doesn't help. Then you add a few negatives on Asian males due to their background and culture. As a result, there is a large percentage of Asian girls that are interested in Caucasian males in the USA/England/Canada/Australia. For whites girls with Asian males it's almost impossible. White girls feel there are a lower class in society in some ways.
B = Brad Pitt
L = Leonardo DiCaprio
T = Tom Cruise
Someone made a funny video at an university in California on "Why Asian guys can't get white girls". It has a funny ending.
