From experience, I feel inner region mainland girls are less demanding than the coastel city girls. It's probably because inner regions are surrounded by less obvious wealth.

You must be EXTREMELY careful when selecting a mate over there, man.

That is all I have to tell you. I'm a Chinese major in my hometown university, and I have spent 14 months in China and 4 months in Taiwan, and I kid you not, there is nothing in the world that would convince me to marry a mainlander.


Let's see, mainlander women are vain, over-pampered, materialistic, overeager to suck on white dicks, am I missing anything?

It's utterly sad to see how morally depraved mainlanders in general have become, they used to be much more likable in my mother's time.

My main problem is, and I see this happening even for mainland Chinese here in America, mainland Chinese boyfriends pay for the apartments that their girlfriends live in, but some of these guys don't even have a job. So, where do they get their money? Parents...

My main issue is, many mainland women are just willing to do anything just to be with a foreigner, and that means sacrificing morality a lot of the time.

I don't want to steal the blog here, but I'll say that I met the parents of one of my ex's and I saw just how backwards they are: spitting on the floor (of even their own house), embracing superstitious ideals, criticizing people more educated than themselves, not knowing where AIDS comes from (and thus risking contracting it when donating blood), engaging in the most disgusting habits when they have guests come for a visit... the list goes on and on. I was the only white guy in a city of one million.I became a propaganda icon overnight.

Comparatively speaking, I had like 7 dates in Taiwan and didn't have to worry about that shit. It was just like meeting an American that speaks Chinese as their mother tongue.


Cut them some slack, it's a "city" of 1 mil but it's China after all lol. They all probably had a really tough time getting food on the table for generations. After all, when you say Taiwan you're probably talking about Taipei right?

However, you do know about Taiwanese men begging for raises on their pocket money (零用钱) from their wives right

Yeah, but that's not saying much considering their national average salary for an undergrad is only 23,000 NT each month, and is only 5,000 NT above their minimum wage at roughly 18,000 NT monthly (not even 1000 USD monthly). I knew a girl whose father and mother were divorced and her dad made like 30,000 NT a month (just above 1k USD). Half of that went to her mother and her mother didn't even work.

Their living standard is cheaper than America's, but more demanding than mainland China's. I plan on going back when I graduate.

A lot of your contempt for the behavior of your ex's parents honestly sounds like a gap in cultural and generational understanding imo.

1. Okay, spitting on the floor is kind of nasty, but I would not raise my eyebrow at it.
2. Many Taiwanese people are superstitious, especially those of the older generation. I dunno why you listed this 'cause superstition's pretty big in both mainland China and outside of it throughout much of East Asia. My (Taiwanese) mother and (Taiwanese) grandmother are both superstitious, as an example.
3. People criticize others more educated than themselves all the time. Sometimes it's just jealousy, sometimes it's just, "I can't believe that young whippersnapper actually thinks he knows more than me!"
4. Education difference. (Again, especially amongst the older generation, this isn't uncommon.)
5. Disgusting habits? Please elaborate.

Both Chinese and Taiwanese families in general seem to be a little more open about disgusting behavior than many Western families; it's one of those cultural things again, I feel. In Western families, I feel like you have to know all these unspoken rules, and there's a lot more "ignoring" or "pretending" that disgusting behavior doesn't happen. In many Chinese and Taiwanese families, there's more acceptance that it just happens and everyone does it. I know that my (Taiwanese) grandparents and (Taiwanese) parents have no issue peeing with the bathroom door open, for instance, or farting or burping or picking their noses without trying to cover it up, lol. One of my uncle's gfs once had her period while sitting on a pillow, and when she realized it, she just told my grandmother in front of a bunch of strangers (i.e. my mom and I) and went to immediately wash it in the bathroom. No shame in that, it happens. I have the feeling that something like this would be a much more hush-hush affair if you're dealing with a white family, with plenty of mortification to go around.

Not to mention, drawing such a conclusion from the parents of one of your exes when you go on to say you never had a problem with the seven other Taiwanese girls you dated ... well, you see the faulty logic in that, don't you? Maybe if you dated six more mainland girls and met their parents, you'd have discovered that they weren't as backward.

I'm not trying to be sarcastic but I don't get which point you were trying to address. I wasn't talking about present living costs at all.
