Articles : coineineagh commented on news My Chinese Spouse: Love Has No Borders

When my wife first met me, there was some guy from Sweden who was crazy about her, inviting her to go there.

There are times when I feel my decision ... Full Comment>>

Articles : coineineagh commented on news My Chinese Spouse: Love Has No Borders

"the local is winning in the sacrifice department" means they make more sacrifices? I do agree a local Chinese (girl) trades in a lot of stability and safety when she chooses to date a foreigner. She becomes the target of scorn, criticism, ridicule or worse. Most of this is passive & cultural (meaning foreigners ... Full Comment>>

that's what you get for klling off your own daughters. Conficius say: "Be cruel and you will be in control." Only in China, and only for Chinese people, does this attitude apply without repercussions. On a related note, I find China's international policy of non-interference hilarious: It's like they're trying to ... Full Comment>>

Yes, just get your nation in top-10 lists and make sure the majority of uninformed people think positively of you, then all is well. Mianzi is a cargo cultist's reality.
