It is often said, "In Rome live like the Romance" ::). Many cousins of mine in China have practiced the ethics of this adage to a degree that spells "Watch the handwriting on the wall". A friend of mine went back home to visit and he could not bring himself to court a girl because he was shocked by the startling difference b/w the girls at home and the  yellow skinny winnies here in China.

As of date, the brother is yet to fully recover this symptom that warrants both medical and social treatment. Boys u can enjoy yourselves here but pls don't get addicted. A hint to the wise is quite sufficient. ???

For laughs guys, nothing personal

You might have just insulted/dissed your not-so-skinny "sisters" by complimenting women who think Blacks are...wait, here's an excerpt from a post written by one of the forum members:

My guy and i were shopping one time and as i was at the changing room a couple of [chinese] chicks in a group of guys passed him and said "look at that black man it's no wonder thiis whole place is smelling "

*Sigh* Some of us don't know when to be a little discreet...then again, those Chinese "chicks" spoke their minds out [too] loudly so I guess you have to do the same thing with your thoughts...after all, "when in Rome, do as the Romans".

Really sorry if u felt that way but trust me that was far to be my intent. My reply was more into the "addiction" to Asian girls other than the "skinny" stuff, in fact I have never had a skinny gf in my life (maybe one exception :P ) , even with Asian I tend to be more into those who do not belong to their "normal" stereotype, and Kabzhela can testify this I am really far to be impressed by thin girls  ;D

Back to the topic, it is not really a matter of choice but if u have people like me, who spent almost five straight years IN THEIR EARLY TWENTIES among Asians and Caucasians, without the opportunity to even meet a Black lady (was in a small town so nothing to do with Shanghai), then believe me there will be some changes in your behaviour towards girls of your own race. And it will take you some time to recover from this symptom

I am proud to be Black and for me beauty is Black, so insulting African ladies would be insulting my sisters or mother, which is just not a possibility in my case. But finding a lady HOT doesn't always translate into really wanting to court her or so...Physically the Asian don't come close to Blacks I believe, but in a relation you sometimes want more than that, and there are some things that Asian ladies bring to the table that u can't find elsewhere, and if u get used to it...I believe we could start a new thread on that subject in a near future.  :)

As for the smell stuff, I think it is easy to generalize but by doing so we would be the racist ones. This happens not only for the Chinese but also with some caucasians and, within some African countries, among people from different ethnic groups. Personally I have had a couple of Chinese gf, have some friends married to Chinese or other Asian women and I don't find anything wrong in those relations because of what "others" of the country say.

Merry Xmas to all of u!
Pat

I wasn't insulted at all, just trying to point out that your previous statement MIGHT sound a bit harsh to the ones you 'go back home' to (i.e. African "sisters").

Merry Xmas 2 u 2 Pat.
