You may here her relative repeatedly whispering "gweilo, gweilo". That just means literally "handsome white man".

Yea sure

I live in kind of the asshole of the center of TX, so my options are limited to meet people as it is. I think a lot of girls from there would love to come here just to be able to hang out, watch movies, and not have anybody fucking with them. Am I wrong?

God you're pathetic. You sounds like a stereotypical nerd who's afraid to go out and meet women.

Plenty of Chinese women would sign up to be lower class Americans. When a country's PPP is $6000, that means what they earn can buy roughly $6000 worth of goods in US dollars at US prices. Next time you go to McDonalds, I want you to realize that this kid working part time after school is earning more money per year than a Chinese person who works 72 hours per week at a factory.

Not a fair comparison, especially the bold part.

Yes, the earning power per person in USD is lower in China but the cost of living in China or Asia is much much lower than in the US. Almost everything is cheaper in China than in US. For example, a nice shirt in US is about $20 but you can not say a similar shirt will cost $20 in China too.

On the side note, most of ATOTers that posted in this thread need to go out, especially travel to oversea and see the world and learn about other cultures and people. Some of the posts in this thread are so pathetic and sad.

My wife was born and rasied in China, and only left in 2003.

LEt's explode a few myths about Chinese girls

Myth 1 - They are submissive - Bzzt. They'll yell and bitch just as much as any white girl. They also aren't afraid to tell you what they want

Myth 2- They are happy to stay home and be little miss housewife - Bzzt. They like to have a life outside of the home as well.

Myth 3 - They just lie there in the sack - Bzzt. They aren't afraid to get down and dirty. Don't worry about that/

Myth 4 - They don't shave - Bzzt. Smooth and sexy.

There are also some truths. Most of them like to have children young. Most of them are very family orientated. They also still like the man to be the boss, but they will give you advice and a lot of it.

<mcbain>That was the joke</mcbain>

IIRC, it literally means "white ghost" and is a racial jab of the "beloved patriot" caliber.

I'd say it's more of an equivalent of calling an asian "oriental" since in many cases it isn't meant to be derogatory but not very PC.

You're thinking of ??, or "bái?gui" which is in fact a derogatory term for caucasians. But ??, which can be phoenetically pronounced "gweilo" does mean Westerner.

No, I agree with Chris. It's Cantonese for "ghost (old) man" and is a loaded phrase. In Hong Kong and most of Canton it's used in ordinary speech to refer to foreigners, as opposed to the more polite expression of say "sai yahn." But it can carry a derogatory meaning behind it. So the more I think about it, "oriental" or "chinaman" is a satisfactory analogue for the term. The exact word or phrase isn't derogatory, but it has a history and sometimes implied meaning behind it that can carried with it.

I personally don't mind it too much, it's obvious with how it is spoken that it is meant as just an ordinary expression. But I have heard foreigners here that do mind it.

Debate about the definition of PPP could be avoided by a 10 second google search.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purchasing_power_parity
The purchasing power parity (PPP) theory uses the long-term equilibrium exchange rate of two currencies to equalize their purchasing power. Developed by Gustav Cassel in 1918,[1] it is based on the law of one price: the theory states that, in ideally efficient markets, identical goods should have only one price.

This purchasing power SEM rate equalizes the purchasing power of different currencies in their home countries for a given basket of goods.. Using a PPP basis is arguably more useful when comparing differences in living standards on the whole between nations because PPP takes into account the relative cost of living and the inflation rates of different countries, rather than just a nominal gross domestic product (GDP) comparison. The best-known and most-used purchasing power parity exchange rate is the Geary-Khamis dollar (the "international dollar").

In summary, people in China live like people who earn far less than minimum wage. You get mad when you can't upgrade your computer; Chinese people get mad when they don't have enough money to buy food.

Seems a little fishy? It smells like last week's catch left out in the sun.

You have money no? Move.

Would if I could...really. If this town had even a Taco Bell i'd be happier, lol.

Ok, you're "decently wealthy" and "don't want for anything" yet you can't move. What's the word I'm looking for....oh yeah, shenanigans

Come on man, I lived in Weatherford (3 long years) and even in that small town in the middle of nowhere there were available women.

Weatherford is a college town though, tips the scales in favor of finding chicks

Chinese girls are ugly. In fact, most asian girls are ugly. No ass, no tits. Not like that's the only feature a girl must have, but A cups are pathetic, and ironing boards all the way down are nasty.

Totally. Do a google image search for "40 inch plus" and see what happens
