[quote=GUESTROBERT,387339]I am a Canadian male who has dated women from various societies, including Chinese, and I'm surprised at the question regarding the imbalance. Several Chinese women have told me that Western males treat them as equals, and that Chinese men treat them as inferiors. Chinese males, generally, like males from other patriarchal (read: primitive) societies, prefer their women to be obedient and docile, which is why they are seldom able to date Western women. They cannot psychologically deal with women as equals, and so cannot generally form a healthy relationship (equal partnership) as Westerners see it. They are looking for someone to adopt a subservient role, and Western women have generally moved way beyond that kind of thinking. The saying "Women hold up half the sky in China" may be true, but only if one considers that they hold up the heavy half. Second-generation Chinese males don't tend to have the problem to the same degree, since they were exposed to Western society since childhood. Until Chinese and other patriarchal societies mature, there will always be a barrier for the males.[/quote]
