[quote=CODEMIXER,454425]My opinion. For many Western men and Woman, Chine is like a new flower in a new garden. For many years China was not accessible to the West, or should I say, there was no other reason except the Culture one to visit it. Since the industrialized World has opened it doors to China everything changed. There are now many reasons for people to visit China and some of them are quite rightly as you refer above. I think the main reason of visits by men {If you wish to exclude woman} is to purchase a variety of goods from China for export into the West. There is no bigger reason than that. What does happen is that the visit usually encapsulate tourism destinations where men will meet woman who are always in top shape and possibly single top ranking individuals, and woman is amongst them. {This is not conclusive} Traveling will be second on the agenda. Finding a mate is only for those who visit after being lured by various dating Websites, exploiting this option of business. It is undeniable that contact of Chinese woman by businessmen often lead to romance, this even cross barriers of married men. I have an example of a businessman who texed his wife from Beijing that he wants a divorce when he gets back home. Vulgar as this may seem, it demonstrates the ease with which we start and end relationships. There are huge challenges for men who marry Chinese girls. And the contrary is true. In the first place the religion does come into play only when you get home with your bride. To channel a family reunion as a Baptist with a newbie bride who does Buddhism could be an enormous mountain to bridge. In the second place your bride could be surveyed as a spy by your Government, depending on the political issues of the day. You would be under constant surveillance in some cases and your privacy could be jeopardized. Thirdly. You may be a regular traveler and your British passport can go everywhere but your Chinese one may not. Fourth. Many young Chinese ladies on Dating sites say they have children but these children are not living with them. Does this mean these children are living with grand parents because it is cheaper and does this mean that the new husband will be expected to import the whole family of this girl to his own? It may and it could, especially if the grand parents in the villages are depending on her income. There is an array of possible issues which could cripple these mixed marriages and these are just an example of some of the issues which face them. I think many Western men do become loved in China and I do think the moment becomes a trap of consolation. Very clearly some of them do not give it enough thought. Very few Westerns would wish to work in China, I promise you that. So your original question about Tourism is second on my list and a very definite first if anyone had an agenda to see paradise.
