Do you ever get sicked and tired of all these flat-chested, skinny little girls shuffling along in their tight little skirts and high-heels, clutching their little fendi bags in one hand and their cell phones in the other? Do you get tired of the mindless repetition of 5,000 years of superstition passed down by mothers, sisters and aunts? Of unquestioning reliance on poorly-educated doctors and professionals – following their advice regardless of how foolish it is and not stopping to ask why, because they’re professionals? Of the absence of athleticism, except for some boys playing basketball and others walking around the track clapping their hands. Of your brain shriveling up from disuse in this land devoid of intellectual curiousity, reading and discussion? Do you ever wonder what the hell you’re doing here?
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a strong, big-breasted woman, who can really climb mountains, not just ascending a stone staircase on the side of a hill, carrying her own backpack, sleeping in a tent despite the fact that her hair will get messed up and there are bugs and snakes out there; who can mountain bike through hot sun and mud, getting dirty and sweaty, laughing at the end of the ride; who knows real mexican food from this local pablum and can down a few beers without turning red and passing out; who reads more than just business magazines and likes to discuss philosophy and world events; who will frolic naked in the wilderness, smoke dope in a hot tub, then make you fuck her over and over; who will get up the next morning and suggest you go out for eggs benedict and mimosas, before doing it all again?
There are sporty, non-superstitious, dope-smoking, sexually adventurous Taiwanese girls out there. They’re just harder to find. Most of them have foreign boyfriends/husbands already though!
Yep - I got mine. (Although she does turn red after a few drinks.)
Big-breasted women are great to look at when they’re in their 20’s. After that, they need something to keep their bosoms from obscuring their navel.

Not really. There are virtually no women here who would even come close to what Mother T is talking about. For example, I have yet to meet a non-superstitious Taiwanese.
I spent much of the weekend on the internet looking at various towns in Australia (with an eye to moving to one of them). I was struck by how even a town of 9,000 people has a dozen or so hobby clubs, not to mention sports clubs. That’s right, people back home actually have interests.

Have to agree to disagree then. I have only dated one Taiwanese woman (now my wife) - she loves to ride downhill mountain bikes, we camp and climb mountains regularly, swims in the ocean regardless of the time of year, loves a good fry up… and on and on… obviously I am just lucky. Hang on, she cant hold her booze… damn it - she’s dumped.

Yes, sometimes I dream of having big, red, droopy breasts. or am I big, red, droopy breasts dreaming of being a guy. oh nevermind.
MT. I think you must be thinking the Pygmalion and Galatea thing. There’s not even that many girls in Calif. that fit that description perfectly. well, sure, some, but not everywhere. (i guess unless u live in Santa Cruz, or in Lothlorien Veggie Co-op in Berkeley - can i just say food orgy?)
A good post MT, but I can remember that it was also quite hard to find such girls at home too…pretty girls just don’t want to go camping (it seems) -not at the same level as it is here, of course. To me it seems fairly logical that the kind of girl that comes here would be as MT describes- fairly adventurous. I have LEARNED to not bother with white girls (in particular) because the only ones that I meet are Canadian girls who don’t have a jot of adventure in them. They came over on account of their 30 REALLY good buddies from BC-(usually a small town named Ladysmith) came over. Safety in numbers!
Ive been in Asia for 3 years without ever going back to the UK during this time and I have to say, especially after reading this post- I just miss the playful pub banter that can be had with British women- I’m a bit fed up with having to explain any (intended to be-) funny comment to the locals. Wordplay (in english of course) is out of the question. I also find that my twisted sense of humour doesn’t work here.
I agree with Maoman, big boobs look great when the gal is young, but later on - yuck!
I pursued my Taiwanese GF because she loves the outdoors and to exercise. She is not afraid to get dirty and sweaty, but also looks good for a night out on the town. It took a while to find her because too many of the local gals are just as MT describes. However, I don’t think it is so one-sided. I’ve dated enough Western women to know that they can be just as plastic as any Taiwanese - San Francisco is full of them. It’s hard to find a good combination of beauty and strength in a woman in any country.
I never thought I’d live to see the day when I’d read a romance ad from Mother Theresa–especially not one in which she bragged about her breast size! (Yeah, those’d be worth more masses than France.)
But yeah. I do miss being with my own kind. And Chinese people are definitely not the same as us. We are more skewed toward the creative, individualistic side of the spectrum. We have minds and souls, so to speak. They have groupthink and tradition. Not that they don’t have their niche too. But it’s a different niche. We don’t belong together (and the kids won’t really belong anywhere).
It’s like horses and donkeys–we can interbreed, but there’s not much of a future in it, and God knows what horses and donkeys must think of each other.
I take your point, sleeping with a very skinny girl is actually a very similar experience to sleeping with a mountain bike & hence an unnecesary extra burden in the mountains.
Isnt it part of the human condition to want what we dont have ? ie Slim girl wouldnt it be nice if her boobs were bigger? Big boob girl wouldnt it be nice if her arse was smaller ?..etc
Perfection doesnt exist, just look in the mirror.
My wife camps (loves it) and does all of the things I enjoy doing. She can outclimb pretty much anyone. We spent Chinese New Year camping in Kenting on the end of a 4-wheel drive dirt track overlooking the ocean and after 14 days she was the one that didn’t want to come home (our 4th year doing this). We’ve ridden around the Island countless times by motorcycle in all types of weather. She was also the 2nd Woman in Taiwan to bungee jump (I chickened out!). I will admit she’s a little timid in the ocean, but lot’s of westerners are too. She even throws frisbee!
Screaming Jesus: Do you have kids? I do, and she flows from one culture to the other like water (attends Taiwanese public school).
No regrets, or thoughts from the west after 12 years of marriage…
Wonderful first post!
There are no women (with a few exceptions) in Taiwan. Just a flock of giggling skinny girls with no own will and no personality.
I have known a few Taiwanese girls with own will but they all have moved abroad. Maybe the reason is that they don’t fit into Taiwanese standards.
I miss spotaneous, passionate, relaxed, sensless, foolish and impulsive people in Taiwan. Even in my age I still want to do crazy things sometimes!
You have obviously never met my wife. She has more will than anyone I know. She’s a little bit chubby, too. But, that’s my fault. She was skinny when I met her 19 years ago. And she was never giggly. She has an aura, fer sure.

Hehe. You can say that again Tigerman. My wife must be one of the exceptions.
It is comparing apples and oranges. The foreign girls that I have seen lately can’t start or end a sentence without using the word, “fuck”. And I’m sorry, tacky tattoos just don’t do it for me.

Do you ever feel that way or is it just me?

My wife does all those things with a big smile on her face, apart from mimosas (what the hell are mimosas? I though it was a kind of snake).
And I guess I’d better do something for her this weekend – today is our 7th wedding anniversary and almost 15 years of living together.
