I don't see why it's a big deal, really. If an American who happens to be stationed in the military in Japan meets a woman who's Japanese and the two hit it off and fall in love, then why shouldn't they get married? I don't view it as much different from how I met my wife while living and working in China.

And besides, it's produced some damn good looking kids

What is the problem?

Anyway, seems highly ironic that an apparent Chinese poster is lecturing foreign men on an inability to control sexual desire.
All I said is China does not allow soldiers to date local women, and prostitution is illegal in China.
If a serviceman is with a prostitute and gets caught, he is guaranteed to be expelled and punished by law.


It's ironic that you think people can only comment on their own country, on Asian board.

Probably a cultural difference.
Before the 2000s, college students were not allowed to get married either, and people in China generally supported it.

You misunderstood my point.

My point is that Chinese men are notorious for sleeping with prostitutes and having mistresses, yet, you feel it somehow necessary to chastise American soldiers for dating local women in the places that American soldiers are stationed.

Its your post that is ironic!

I've told you three times that Chinese soldiers are not allowed to date local women, not to mention using prostitutes. Isn't it valid to compare Chinese soldiers with American ones?

If your Chinese friends "are notorious for sleeping with prostitutes and having mistresses", it is only because you are one of those. Every country has such men, and I bet you know the best.

Scientific studies show Chinese men have the lowest number of sex partners. Don't just focus on your friend circle.

Hahahahahaha! Scientific studies?

I get it. Chinese soldiers are not allowed to date local women , not to mention using prostitutes .

Hahahaha! I am not limiting my comments to soldiers.

Now, I wonder who is visiting all those Chinese prostitutes and who is it that has all those mistresses and all those 小太太?

definitely a cultural difference, that doesn't make any sense or seem virtuous to me at all, and that's also probably why the government changed their policies.

Maybe because they fear they would have to bring a different Army unit in to run over their own people with their tanks.....again... if the soldiers in the local units formed attachments to the local communities

My sons are half Filipino. Myself I'm very mixed. My first son has whiter skin and was always called gwapo, etc. My second son came out with darker skin and people don't call him cute as much. He was even teased sometimes called "negro" among family members. But I agree Filipino's are much more accepting compared to other peoples.
