I hate unsubstantiated claims, but you can't ask for 5 academic papers every time someone says something. It's not like he said "oh I saw that issue on Vietnamese TV news too!" . So it's up to 2-10 sample size now? Very good. Try 10,000 and the appropriate robustness tests and then I'll pay attention to your claims. Can't forget a control sample either... This isn't www.elitistpricks.comYou clearly go to university and are very proud of this fact. I guess anyone that doesn't know how to find or reference academic papers doesn't have an opinion worth hearing anymore? And of course everything in this world that exists outside of quantified and categorised data musn't be worth talking about. Ugh, now I feel bad for adopting the same snotty tone you were using. Just trying to say the tone of your messages is very elitist and you can't just demand everyone who wishes to talk about something needs to reference their claims as if it's a university paper. This isn't an academic forum so hoping for that would be a bit silly. Nothing against you personally just I think you're posts were a little off. Good day! He/she made factual claims without providing evidence for them upon request. His beliefs on this matter were formed from a sample size of 1 individual, and perhaps news reports. This is how racist people think. They draw inference from crappy data. I was just pointing out that he was thinking about this badly. I know you are very proud that you just had your first statistics course or something, but you don't actually have to back up every claim you make in a casual discussion. The fact that Vietnam has problems with foreign sex-tourism is pretty common knowledge. Common knowledge does not have to backed up in an academic setting, let alone an internet message board. The common knowledge defence. lmao. Ahh, yes, the common knowledge defence... just like the one you used to support your statement on the IQ of those who have a high pigment content in their skin. Telling someone that something is "commonly known, just google it" is... EXACTLY THE SAME THING YOU'RE MOCKING HIM FOR USING. Troll. Apologies to the rest of the universe, but I cannot possibly read this without responding or having an aneurysm. Or both. How is pointing him in the direction of scientific, published evidence, an appeal to common knowledge? What are you talking about?
You are not pointing him in the direction of scientific, published evidence. You are saying "cbf citing something myself, so you should go search for it because it's commonly known (by me) that it's true." You are making a factual assertion without any reference. When called on it, you are saying "cbf, look it up using this search engine". That is not providing evidence to support your claim - if you believe it is, I invite you to utilize this same statement in an academic setting.
Google Scholar does not provide scientific, published evidence. It provides an index of articles which may be published, may be scientific, but may not in any way be evidence or even factual. There is no guarantee that the results provided will be from ONLY peer reviewed, accepted journals. There is no guarantee that the results will not include incorrect information from outdated, disproven, or questionable sources. Pointing someone to a specific series of results or commonly accepted (academicly) book that is hailed as a standard for the subject at hand might be acceptable. Saying "Google scholar it" is one half step up from "wiki it". It is in fact, a way of saying "my common knowledge is better than your common knowledge - I cannot prove this but I can tell you how to search for what makes it so".
Anyways, that's it. Moving on.
The video itself is propaganda - it's not even new. A bit more open and direct in its xenophobia, but all around gross generalization based on perceptions.

Although since there is a lack of objective data on the topic I would advise people not to jump on the bandwagon just yet. We do have people who may or may not be incorrect in their observation of the world around them (subject to cultural bias etc.) and the "wisest" thing to do in my opinion is to simply accept that there may be a problem but we're not sure.

lol give it a rest
Regarding the vid, it's nothing unexpected. I wasnt surprised at all by the generalising commentator or the foreign and korean girls having one-night-stands. I mean, where I live there are about 100 language schools. So the place has quite a few Asian/ Korean students. And it seems the case that Asian/ Korean women usually pair off with somebody non-Asian. That's what I see in the streets anyway.
The comments of "seeing people being intimate made people uncomfortable", made me laugh though. I guess the MBC guys have never been in Europe x]
|
I read this thread before watching the video and I have to say that people are blowing this pretty far out of context. The video makes many appeals to traditional values. Do you think these girls would be dating foreigners if they had any love for traditional values?

I have have personal experience about the women who try to get a "safe-card" by dating foreign men. Me and a friend travelled asia for 6 months from Japan thru S Korea, China, thailand, vietnam, cambodja and laos. 3 of the women I dated became extremely desperate about me leaving the country when it was time to move on. They did all kind of crazy stuff to make me stay, just saying.
I think that there are alot of women that try to get away from their life by getting together with forein men, and I completely understand them. Take Cambodja for example, 10 year olds are selling coke on the streets next to hostels ffs.

Korean women are acting like total sluts, having unprotected sex with every fucking foreigner, get pregnant and then expect from the male foreigners to take responsibility, like raising the child? I'm not a fan of abortion and etc but the korean women should've known what they're getting into.\ So overall: cool story, South Korea, please continue to ignorantly defend your citizens.

Ah yes. You are citing the work of a professor most well known for the criticisms of his work. This is not scientific proof. This is a survey of previous research, inheriting all of the flaws present in those other works and only choosing those studies which allow Rushton to agree with his long held belief in the inherent superiority of one group of people chosen on the basis of skin pigmentation. (I will leave off mentioning that this is a psychologist attempting to prove genetics without any of the requisite skills, ability, or any reference to actual biological science.)
In short - no, that work is contradicted by many others and the debate is still ongoing. (Ref - http://psychology.uwo.ca/faculty/rushtonpdfs/Suzuki-Aronson.pdf ) Psychological research is questionable in this regard (conflicting results and debate about what results mean) and any attempt to generalize a result to a wider population than your sample will be difficult.

True, it takes 2 to tango right?
Maybe the Koreans need to think about why their women are doing this.
