You bastards, go back to Mexico or wherever you came from. If you ask me, there are too many Mexicans coming into Mexico and stealing hard-working Mexican jobs. Then again, I'm no Mexican. I'm the man that Mexico left behind. | ||

What these immoral men do to women in the videos, should have nothing to do with you and end of story. So don't be offended. If you still are it is still because you believe your ' insert race' doesn't do these things. Now that is a racist thought. Every man for themselves would be a lot closer to any hostility and world peace. | ||

For the large part it would seem that to make an argument seem valid it needs to be backed by some real evidence. I understand how plenty of people think it's ridiculous that you should have to have evidence for every view you have, but what's the point in holding any beliefs unless they're backed by truth. If people actually lived life believing things because the facts showed them to be true instead of just making assumptions about 99% of their beliefs, life would hopefully be much better (yes this is an assumption) | ||

The people angry at the video are worried that this bad generalization of foreigners will affect how they are treated overseas, and for good reason. | ||

The video is clearly aimed at primarily at the white caucasian demographic and its obvious to see why. Do caucasians feel offended when asians get negatively portrayed in the media? Of course not. They don't even come to their defense. Everytime a crime is reported on news, white guys are hoping its not a white guy but any other race. Non whites in the news are always suppressed and oppressed. If you feel offended, it is because you want to identify yourself as belonging to a group that is potentially prejudiced. You obviously don't want someone to judge you with preconceived assumptions. Stereotypes are stereotypes. They exist for a reason. Prejudices exist for a reason too. Simply detach yourself from race and live happily in assimilation. What these immoral men do to women in the videos, should have nothing to do with you and end of story. So don't be offended. If you still are it is still because you believe your ' insert race' doesn't do these things. Now that is a racist thought. Every man for themselves would be a lot closer to any hostility and world peace. It's about foreigners and their effect on society. Could be any race from another culture. The video is kind of funny and sad at the same time, but ofc the same principles will apply to western documentaries also. | ||

With that out of the say, it's really sad to see foreigners react this way to some media in Korea. It's amusing to see everyone so repulsed by such "offensive" material instead of trying to understand WHY they are portrayed that way. It's such an external locus of control it's laughable. This portrayal exists for a reason, just as every other stereotype that exists. We are so fucking liberal aren't we, that we can't even take social commentary by Koreans FOR Koreans. smh | ||

I love how morons like this generalize entire country based upon one retarded tv documentary. Not to mention saying "shits like this happen in other countries, so shut up". Nice going. Maybe the documentary has some truth behind it after all. | ||

It IS true. There are some foreigners who go for one night stands with Korean girls, and there are Korean girls who go for 1 night stands as an analog. To make a report on how Koreans should basically hide their poor, defenseless (as portrayed in the video) women is both silly and ignorant. Most of us aren't out to impregnate Korean women, you know. | ||

On a serious note, we all know plenty of white guys who have Asian fetishes. I went on a Japanese exchange trip and 2 or 3 of the guys' (out of roughly 15 males) main goal was to fuck Japanese girls. I know because they said so. It was pretty obvious too since they were in the lowest level Japanese courses and still didn't bother to do the homework. Obviously though, that means around 12 or 13 of the males actually cared about learning Japanese. Of course theres gonna be a good amount of white people going over to Asia because of their Asian fetishes, but its sad to see such generalization being broadcast like that | ||

You also have to put into perspective of what kind of people Koreans have to look at to base their judgments about foreigners. This is really important I believe. As the only people they will notice MOST will be the rash and abrasive ones, their memories will inevitably be of them. This includes most importantly the US forces stationed there.

And I don't know what thread you've been reading, but most people here ARE trying to understand why they are portrayed that way. That doesn't mean it's not racist. | ||

I suggest you leave the conversation im suprised no one has acted angrily towards you. You sound like an absolute hypocrite who seems really vengeful about white people. You honestly think that the current generation of white people don't know what racism is like? Give me a break, some Asian countries are even more backward than the rest of the world in terms of elitism. The people angry at the video are worried that this bad generalization of foreigners will affect how they are treated overseas, and for good reason. Asians are generally more respective and polite than you may know. Consider this from an asian pov. You are being culturally insensitive about their values and integrity. As an asian living in Australia I have personally seen guys who get aussie teen girls pregnant. Girls gone wild? Go deny it. Stuff like this almost never happens in asia. Crimes rates are lower in asia, and it is a much safer society. This is why the asian media is generally shocked at the rape/crime in western countries. The OP is merely an exaggeration but does raise awareness. If foreigners are worried then they should get their act together and set a better example. Just like most asians living in western countries aim to study hard and have much higher level of ethics and morality. You are not here to judge and no one should be. Literally 90% of university enrolments are asian and reflect theirs expectations. Are asians guys overconfident in engaging girls in clubs? No. If anything it is well known that caucasians are generally more confident in engaging in relationships. | ||
