Usually I think nothing…because I don’t see it - why???
I’ve asked my Taiwanese friends about this and their answer seems to be that Taiwanese guys are intimidated by how out-going western girls are. Another friend suggests that knowing the rumours about how well-endowed Western guys are the Taiwanese guys are embarassed at how they’ll stack up!!
But I’d love to hear what other people think…
I had a friend in Chia Yi by the name of Amy. She loved the local guys because the foreign guys did not find her very interesting. She was a man-eater to say the least.
Not sure if I’ve ever seen a Western girl with a “Gu” or not, what is it?
[quote=“SuperS54”]Not sure if I’ve ever seen a Western girl with a “Gu” or not, what is it?[/quote]It what happens when there’s a limit on the length of a subject name. I’ll fix it then, it won’t be so grammatically correct, I hope the original poster doesn’t mind.
I wonder how they get along… if they face similar issues that foreign males and local females face… and how they deal with idiotic questions and notions such as those voiced by the original poster in this thread. 
I wonder if they have a girl, would she be hot, or damn ugly.
A western girl with a Taiwanese guy is not common, but it does exist. I think part of the reason why many people dont see it is because Taiwanese male/Foreign female couples do not frequent the same establishments as other foreigners. They most likely frequent where the Taiwanese guy would like to go. Also, if a foreign female does go out with her friends, it is unlikely the Taiwanese guy would go out with her because some the Taiwanese will probably not feel very comfortable, therefore not willing to put himself in an uncomfortable situation. I actually have seen a number of attractive foreign females with Taiwanese boyfriends (much to my dismay). It is just that the Taiwanese boyfriend is rarely around.

Rumours??? You think so???
This whole topic is moot. Any honest, red-blooded male worth his salt will tell you that when he sees a girl, the first thing he thinks of is not who she’s with, but how big her…um…eyes are. 
Feminists, flame away!

Ah… I take exception to that (though I’m not a feminist). This assumes that gay men, who have no interest in how big a girls… um… eyes are, are not “honest, red-blooded males.” Believe me, we are! We are just spending our time looking at the guy wondering how big his… um… teeth are.
Homophobes, flame away!
There was a very hot American gal who was a student at Chung Yuan University in Zhongli during the mid-90’s who had a Taiwanese bf. The guy had long hair, wore a black leather jacket and drove a cool motorcycle. He looked like a pretty hip guy. I lived near the campus at that time and would seem them on occasion.
I never once saw her in any pub where other foreigners frequented. I think she had pretty much assimilated herself fully into Taiwanese culture. They looked very happy together so my only thought was “what a nice looking couple.”

OK CK, I’ll be truthful too. The first thing I think of when I see a hot guy is how big his…um…smile is! :bouncy:
My god, Blueface, it’s HUGE !
I’ve seen a couple of tall blonde Slavic-looking women on the arms of wealthy-looking Chinese men. I read an article a while back in the paper that said there was an agency that fixed well-to-do men up with Ukranian or other former-Soviet nation women up together. Said it was more expensive than introducing them to SE Asian women and the women had to agree to come over. Not saying thats the only way a Chinese man could find a tall blond beauty, but was my assumption at the time.
Control yourself! There’s enough for everyone…
I shared a room with two French girls (both in their very early 20’s), at the infamous Formosa Hostel, in my early days in the ROC. They were in town for a semester of Mandarin studies at Shi-ta. Nice girls, and fairly attractive.
Wow, did they have an active social life. All kinds of local guys hitting on them, all the time, so it seemed from the number of phone calls they would get. On more than one occasion I overheard their baudy, post big night out, gossip. As I speak some French, I was able to gather that the girls were getting all kinds of good lovin’ from their local boyfriends. About one guy, who they called the “sportsman”, they said, "C’est pas tres grande, mai ca marche comme!" They were crazy about this guy.
As far as I could tell, the French girls had a great time in Taiwan, had satisfying sex a plenty, and were in high demand with the local guys, who they clearly preferred to their western hostlemates. I think they were looking for some exotic adventures to compliment their language studies, and they seemed to have found it.
(A moral to the story: Western guys who think that they are somehow god’s gift to Taiwanese womanhood and are uniquely capable of pleasing a woman, are clearly a bunch of self-deluded edjits.)
So quite a few people have a story, or knew some-one but I just wonder why the ‘western guy, taiwanese girl’ phenomenon doesn’t translate back the other way…is it that the western girls aren’t interested? or is it the taiwanese guys who don’t want a bar of the girls??
Family concerns I would assume. What Mother wants her son to have a foreign bride to raise her grandchildren? They fear the family name being destroyed, the education of the children, and the future of the kids.
Girls, well, they’ll be getting married and leaving the family anyhow.
I know of a few Asian male-Western female couples here. Unfortunately, I am not part of one. I suppose local men are not into big black women. Their loss.
