Chinese Women and Their Relationships With Western Men – An Introduction

As you probably already know, China is a bustling nation with over 1.3 billion inhabitants mostly crammed into the Eastern portion of the developing country. With the rich cultural tradition of Confucianism all but destroyed in the Cultural Revolution that razed the country until the death of Chairman Mao in 1976, China has struggled to define morals and sexual standards for a generation that has grown up outside the 'Iron Veil'. In 1979, when Deng Xiao Ping announced "To be rich is to be glorious", China threw off the shrouds of decades of poverty and rushed full force into mass commercialism and materialism. As expected, the 'world's oldest profession' came roaring back into society, fueling a sex starved population that has been racing to make up for lost time. All of which is good news for most visitors…. Even 10 years ago, a Westerner holding hands with a Chinese girl would attract scornful stares, and tourists could even be prosecuted for sleeping in a hotel room with an unmarried woman. Nowadays, Chinese women openly demonstrate a strong attraction to Western men, and it's not all about the money or the promise of a green card: a sexist home culture makes Western sexual equality seem like paradise. Western men have shown that a little manners and caring can go a long way in winning the hearts of women who have been marginalized for decades. Older visitors will be thrilled to learn about traditions such as "the older cows must feed on the tender reeds", which is a parable dictating that older men should keep girlfriends far younger than themselves, often as second or even third mistresses to their wives in order to preserve their youthful energy. These modern day 'geishas' are often given nice apartments, clothing, and living stipends by their benefactors whose only mandate is that they do not sleep with anyone else and do not get, or stay, pregnant. There are also plenty of financially successful women dating foreigners as mere sexual explorations into Western culture: having heard rumors of Western men, Chinese women are eager to put the theories to test, even though may intend to marry within their ethnic heritage. Still, there are many traditional girls wanting to fall in love, get married, and have kids just like in the story books. Due to a sexually repressive culture, many of these girls are uninformed about dating with casual sex and foreigners may find serious relationship drama can develop from a single one-night-stand in China. The combination of these factors makes China a great travel destination for dating or even just mating, but as with any modern community, and especially one in the throes of an economic explosion; escorts, prostitution, sexual disease, drugs, and worse have become cornerstones of society; China's burgeoning sex industry offers visitors a plethora of pleasure, should one avoid the perilous pitfalls of sex scams in the land of the Rising Sun.
