Way to go Britain...How long before the CCP starts jailing pro-democracy supporters as "destroyers"? (aka Chinglish for "terrorists" in British English)...No worries...Just as long as the Party blames the "USA"..so you can earn your $5 from them and the false appreciation of it. Full Comment>>

Knowing the conditions that are allowed in Nanjing on the subway during rush hours, this woman is right to sue the Subway authority. It is their "ignorance to safety".

In terms of historical regards: I'm not sure if it was due to misogyny on the men's part (knowing the psychological abuse they stood to bear) or the want to reduce competition on the female's part (matriarchial dominance) that female Chinese women were deemed "undesirable" as spawn. Full Comment>>

So what if somebody actually does come over and kick you one day, what is your defense? "Hey! Why did you kick me? I was only laughing at you!" ..and then call the police....because YOU thought they looked stupid? Full Comment>>

Like I said this article doesn't tell you the full story. That is obvious. Nor am I about to defend those that consider "unwanted attention" an action that is not offensive. This articles blatantly implies advocating "innocence" for people who are being intentionally provocative and ... Full Comment>>

"Victimless" crimes have victims...Don't play the "lesser evil" card..When it comes down to it, theres no such thing...That's evil's greatest deception...A kick is a kick no matter how hard you take it.

For the record: I've met a lot of Chinese women on QQ who ask to see my penis...and then there are the men who check out my stuff at the urinals...It is probably true that this guy has met many of the same or he would not have been so forwards. Full Comment>>

In the West, sure. He should have. The gender ratio in China discourages that. The social networks are stringent and stratified..His chances of competing with other males after blowing his and his families investment on this one were probably pretty slim. Getting laid in China is still regarded as a one-shot deal ... Full Comment>>

It's called emasculation. She challenges him to "make her stop" he can do nothing but resort to his God-given masculine rationale, which is based in physical superiority...but he cannot utilize it in the modern social dynamic, he has no outlet, so it becomes internalized to the point of violence upon himself.

I have to agree with Mateusz, that primarily "laowai" is used with offensive connotation. If any person in the USA made such obvious gestures as pointing out a "black man" or a "Chinese man", (with those simple terms), who was simply going about their own business in ANY public setting ...
