[quote=GRIZ326                 ,34454]This thread is not one of your shining moments, Pinetree. Your comments make you appear hateful and bitter. I've usually just thought of you as naughty and playful. I am one of those westerners who is planning to come and work in China. Trust me, I'm not coming for the money.1. Why China ?My mother was fascinated by the Chinese culture and passed that fascination on to me. I am also fond of Chinese philosophy. Living in China for a few years would separate fact from fiction and romance from reality. I've been fortunate to have had several adventures in my life. Living in China for a few years would be another adventure for me, perhaps my last great adventure. 2. Why at this stage of your lives ?I am not getting any younger. 3. Are u really in China for the love of its culture, history, etc, etc ?" Not really. Chinese culture - as I saw it in the 70's - was not much in evidence in Beijing and Shenyang this summer. For the most part, the major cities in China are significantly westernized now.Am I coming for the women? In a way, yes. I've been seriously searching for a mate for about a year without success. There are slim pickin's here in Montana, USA...so why not China? Even as a grade schooler, I thought Chinese girls were very beautiful. When I was lost in Shanghai back in the 70s a young woman in a green Mao suit took my hand and held it through several bus rides until we got back to the river. I was hooked. But you won't find me trying to bed every young girl that comes along. A quick roll in the sack doesn't make a woman a wife; I want a wife.Oh yeah....one more thing, Pinetree, foreign nationals need not travel and live in the United States to take jobs from US workers. Foreign nationals take US jobs every day from their homeland; it is called outsourcing.[/quote]
