Don't worry, she's noticeably old in Asian's eyes 
Well, sometimes Asian people could not differentiate Westerners' ages too

Wow those lucky people who got Boxer to sign their shirts make me sad panda :/ Must been really nice seeing him irl, he really looks like star on those pics

Are pictures more focused on Boxer or did he just get more attention than Fruitdealer?

Definitely looks slighty above 30, I would say 32-34.
I'm kind of overwhelmed after watching Boxer play at Blizzcon, sc2 starts to feel like a great game finally. Fruitdealer was absolutely amazing too, can't believe that story about his fathers illness and him having to actually sell fruit. Anyone has a link to a thread about it (if there was one)?

First of all, go for the actual pictures of her rather than photoshopped posters you find online (she's way younger on some of them too). Secondly, someone like boxer could have basically gotten anyone he wanted, think of a 10/10 girl rather than 8/10.

Yeah you should at least link to the source, it's so obviously copy-pasted from some non-English or already-translated source.

Boxer for ever! he will always remind me of sc1 and probably sc2, we'll see how he does. after his match against fruit dealers, my hopes have gone up for him!! Go! Boxer you are the emperor!

Interesting. If I look very closely I can tell she's over 30 but she still looks very good. It probably has more to do with diet, exercise than race. Of course being known as the Emperor in your country probably helps with girlfriends.

She's barely average. I've seen way hotter korean chicks. I read somewhere she's really supportive of him though, and younger chicks are generally dumber too.

Sheridan looks 30-32 on that last pic, you can notice shes done her lips and some facelifts though. The eyes are most revealing, and she has them covered.
To firereaver below: I don't know how much love there is in their relationship, when 2 celebs start to date you can only guess. Maybe boxer does have a thing for older women, who knows? We're merely discussing her looks here.

ZOMG!! there are so many things wrong with that! The last pic wasn't photoshopped and she looked fine. And I could tell you the same thing about 100% of celebrities these days that they look worse in real life. Also when BoxeR met her she was prob something like 30-32! And she was prob really big in SKorea when BoxeR was in his late teens! Those are the years when you have golden ideals about certain women! Its like me falling in love with Catherine Zeta Jones. Though she's prob 10-12 years older than me doesn't make her 8/10 even if she has started showing signs of age! Plus when you reach BoxeR's age, the looks department probably takes second priority when compared to True Love. Lets KEEP THINGS REAL here please... BoxeR's popularity among the girls while second to none (ok maybe Nada) in the Progaming scene, definitely pales in comparison to other, more "glamorous" celebrities even in SKorea. If you want proof go check out any of those S.Korean TV shows with polls and see if any gamer comes anywhere in the list of ideal guys! Phew!

Not to troll on you or anything but i think you dont understand the celebrity culture in S.Korea! It is considered mandatory to have some amount of plastic surgey to become a public figure over there. It is so widespread that these things are spoken about very openly unlike the rest of the world. I personally think its something like a Geisha and all the weird stuff they have to go thru to appear attractive because essentially thats what it takes to be on screen in SKorea... I'm talkng even about teenage girls at the age of 10-12 yrs getting lifts, liposuctions and even"aegyo surgery"! So its a given that she went thru all that anyway just as its a given that any famously pretty girl over there has done the same thing. Sorry I'm not arguing here... just clearing a few things up!
|
I didn't say she went under the knife (which she did too), was talking about another celeb. I'm not trying to argue whether it's good or not, this was solely about her looks the way they are now (even though I find plastic surgery disgusting).
This thread is getting sidetracked.
|
Ah wow, that pic with boxer and the sc2 team chiefs is so funny... like boxer say "you made a game for me, cool, so i smile with you a little, not get lost"
I just love that man, so classic and all. + Show Spoiler +Also from the pics it looks like boxer got all the attention even though he was beaten, though i can understand, i would go for him as well :D
|
I like all the people saying "there are much hotter asian/korean women," whereas you know that if the woman were white they would just be referring to her as a woman and not by ethnicity.
So, yeah, the unintentional racism in this thread, combined with some rampant orientalism, is both astounding and amusing.
Also, one would hope that more people would realize that there is more to a relationship than looks (and she doesn't even look bad, anyway).

Boxer hwaiting!

This could be a publicity stunt after all, aging actress needed to boost her popularity, starts dating boxer to not just draw more attention but also to appeal to much younger audiences. Not like this hasn't been done before. Not sure if they will want the kids being in this kind of a relationship (just fantasizing here).

Why do people assume that this isn't legitimate love? By saying BoxeR could do better just undermines his choice. Yes, he likely could have had a hottie wife with nothing in common and he hates her voice, etc.

It's funny every time Boxer and his girlfriend pictures being posted, the thread turns to focus on his GF... almost always 
That aside, I think Boxer's decision of coming to BlizzCon really benefits everybody.
Boxer: Potential gain of new fans (not from TL, of course; but there should be a lot of newer players in SC2 in BlizzCon too). Not to say he is coming to the US on Blizzard's bill 
Blizzard: Huge promotion on SC2.
Fans: Seeing Boxer playing Live would be a dream come true to most of the (TL) Fans.

Hey lets not focus on how Boxer made a shitload of money dominating his field for years, and how even nearly a decade later he hasnt lost his ability to impress hundreds of thousands of people at a time simply by being himself. Lets also not focus on how he has a thin beautiful asian wife who loves him despite having made her own success and money as an actress. Yeah lets not talk about those things. Lets just pick him apart for not being a 16 year old living in his parents basement posting on TL about how his gf is "not that hot".
Lets see if we can break the internets stupidity record right here in this thread.
No offense, but none of these people posting about how boxer isnt this or boxers gf isnt that are ever going to remotely approach his level of success, and id really like to see how well theyve aged by the time they are 38. What a laugh.

Is this your contribution here? Because this doesn't have any substance, even less than anyone else who's posted here thus far. And if people want to gossip about boxers private life it's their choice, isn't it? Everything about him is in the spotlight here, just like any professional sports celebrity gets his private life examined inside out, have you not had enough of Tiger Woods or Brett Farve affairs discussion? You did try to break internets stupidity record but I still think it wasn't close to sufficient.
This amuses me actually, you've stated how we don't talk about how much money he's made or how many achievements he's had but we all know about it already, do you really want 3 pages of same dry statements? Wish I felt this great while fighting windmills.

He brought up a significant point on the West's obsession with gossip and critiquing people's personal lives bit by bit. Most notably, it was also the fact that it was a bunch of basement-dwelling 16 year olds doing it. And what is wrong with that exactly?
Take your criticisms of his girlfriend to perezhilton.com, not TL.

Indeed. I'm sorry, but since when is calling a person of Asian descent "asian" being racist? Calling a black person black isn't racist, however people seem to think it is and are referring to black people as "African-american" regardless of them being from America. Calling a black person a "fucking nigger", now that is being racist because it's derogatory and intended to demean and belittle the person.
Comparing Asians to other Asians isn't being racist, and the reason I wouldn't say "white woman" is because I'm white myself. If I were Asian however, I'd definitely be saying "white woman" and be referring an Asian woman as "woman."

He was pointing out a sort of institutionalized racism that is not so obvious. That when we refer to white women in the U.S., we refer to them as the standard "woman". Yet, when there's a woman of Asian descent, we Americans tend to say "Asian woman" or "for an Asian woman" to describe them. I know that might not seem "racist" at first glance, but it is something to note, that we don't view the races exactly equally because we have been brought up in the U.S. to accept white culture as the standard. There's a reason that most people don't say "for a white woman" or "white woman" to describe them.
The post about adjectives and food was not accurate either. "What do white people eat? food." Food is missing an adjective. What kind of "food"? This emphasizes my point above regarding white culture being standardized with other cultures becoming differentiated.
Race is a tenuous issue that most people don't understand completely, especially if they're not a person who's studied it, or a person from another country or ethnicity. But this is the internet so who cares.
and the reason I wouldn't say "white woman" is because I'm white myself. If I were Asian however, I'd definitely be saying "white woman" and be referring an Asian woman as "woman.
I want you to realize that the instinctive use of race as an adjective is not relative. I'm asian and I'd like to say that I know more about this than others, especially due to the fact that I study this, but not all races are the same, that Asians still refer to others as "Asians" and not just "people". It's become a problem that is not obvious to most people, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Didn't mean to derail the thread, but I feel that most people aren't as informed on race.
Proceed with the boxer photos

So, yeah, the unintentional racism in this thread, combined with some rampant orientalism, is both astounding and amusing.
how is that racist , what is the derogatory comment exactly? So now i'm not allowed to say i prefer asian girls over white girls or vice versa? Keep living in your own little world dude.

You are all being trolled by FrostOtter  It managed to pull the discussion from BoxeR's awesomeness to "being racist when you use the word asian". Stop feeding it :/ + More pics please.

You guys are killing me. As if there were a white woman in Korea she wouldn't be described as a white woman. Anyways, boxer's gf is cute and boxer is even cuter. I want him to win big.

Actually, Nagano got it right-- everyone else just thought they were being trolled, and I didn't try to keep explaining so that the thread wouldn't further be derailed. Maybe things are different in other countries, but in the US there is often a fetishizing of certain ethnicities that gets a little weird at times. It could be that I am just misinterpreting an international community because of my own limited perspective; if that is the case, then I apologize-- too many liberal arts degrees, I guess.
And of course there is nothing wrong with using adjectives, especially if adjectives are relevant-- nor does it mean that someone is an overt, evil racist-- I was just bringing attention to, as Nagano said, institutionalized racism which is much harder to discern and is often used unwittingly, and I admit I may have gotten a bit carried away.
Again, apologizes for having gotten everyone off on a tangent, I need to learn when to keep stuff to myself, since this particular thread was not the most appropriate venue for my random academic-rage.

Most people on TL are young and don't have gf's. IE, they act retarded when they see a picture of a woman.

Cool pictures. I wish I can get an autograph by BoxeR... or any progamer out there hahaha.

It's natural to want the best for some of our hero's and when we see that she's a nice girl it keeps our spirits high so....

I think it's a combination.
Most people who "troll" are just dumb people trying to be funny.

Look, I understand you. As a minority I. Don't just know what you're talking about but experience it.
But its the same everywhere else. White people will experience the same if they live in non white majority country too. They will no longer be "that guy", but "that white guy" just the same. Everyone thinks of themselves as the standard and won't notice it until they are the minority. If someone was in majority and still cognizant of this, i'd applaud them for their level of maturity. But I wouldn't expect a person living in their bubble to know what you are talking about due to their inexperience. And that's ok too.

I don't think she's old enough to be considered a cougar.
