I was actually quite happy to see a recent blog post about one of my first posts here. I figured I would stir up a bit of controversy, and I am happy to say that I am right. (would have been nice to have a link back to me though)
I am quoted 2 times in the rant, once with “chinese girls are so great and all i have to do is sit here at starbucks and they come back to the hotel with me.” and another with “i can get hot chicks here when nobody at home looks my way”
First, I never mentioned chinese, so I am guessing that the author is a chinese girl, not that there is anything wrong with that, just a bit arrogant that she thinks all Asians are Chinese. On the second quote, I am at a loss for where that even came from, it’s a reach from “flirt with beautiful women” to “get hot chicks”
Bash my opinions and thoughts all you want, but if you are going to QUOTE me, do it right. A self justifying paraphrase is not a QUOTE, regardless that you say “along the lines of”.
As for me being illiterate, perhaps I am. Written english was never my strong point, and I use way to many commas and break way to many english structure rules. I tend to just write what I am thinking of as if I was talking to someone. So sue me! it gets the point across, and maybe after I write this blog for a bit longer I will improve my skills. It’s better to get up and dance even if you don’t dance well, than to sit at the side of the room and hide.
I am also accused of not posting her comment, but then, I am fairly busy and don’t come running to the blog 10 times a day to check to see if anyone read or wrote anything. So my apologies if I was slow to approve your comment, and in apology, I gave you a link, and a front page reply as well as a comment in the comments themselves.
What I do and what I have learned is not considered acceptable to most women in the west, but I have found very few men that have any problem with it at all. I expect a lot of bashing and bullying but I don’t mind, men in the states have gotten used to it. We are not supposed to still want to be men when we get older, we are supposed to want to be loveless companions that get less respect than a puppydog. Similar in a way I guess to older people in china (nod to the rant), as the older people in china are respected highly, but they are supposed to stay home and pretty much stay out of sight as their time is over. I find it amusing that as a white guy in Asia, I feel like a kid starting my life again, when the elder chinese are not given the same opportunity.
Do I stick out like a sore thumb in Asia? you bet I do, and that is bad how? (ok, bad depending where I am as some areas it’s really is not a good thing to be white. Walking wallet and randsom is all some see)
I spent most of my youth trying to stick out. I see all around me people that want to rebel and don’t want to conform. I guess once you get older, people think you should shut up and go hide. I LIKE being noticed, I like the attention. It has been a very long time that I got attention from women in the states other than a warm body to marry, and when they find out you don’t want to get married, you cease to exist.
Anyway, thank you for your comments, I really did appreciate them. I appreciate them more and more as I think of them. I would rather be ranted at and bullied than being told to shut up and sit in the corner like a nice old man.
Bless you
