Taipei vs Shanghai anyone? I’m a young bachelor looking to bachelor it up! I speak no Chinese and my budget is about 3k USD a month. Can go over that depending on situation. I would like to stay in the city center near popular night life spots, get a pimping apartment and invite girls. Which city would be better for this based on my requirements?
shanghai… definetly shanghai…
:roflmao: Shanghai…Girls are better looking, smarter etc… in Taipei, but it is a lot easier to get your Don Johnson wet in Shanghai (just don’t forget the ‘cab fare’)
Bangkok …
^^ was also thinking about writing bangkok but he asked taipei or shanghai… and for his purposes i guess shanghai is pretty much as good as bangkok
I’ve already done Bangkok. Taipei and Shanghai are 2 cities that are currently on top of my mind. Isn’t Shanghai so much more expensive? I heard rental prices are really high there. Besides, I heard girls get really attached quick there. And also, I seem to like the big eyed Taiwan girls with a modern dress style like skirts, etc. Are girls in Shanghai like that too?
should find enough girls that dress the way you like in shanghai. and rents in taipei is not cheap and girls in shanghai are cheaper… (especially the type that doesnt get attached quickly…) and there are more. i really think shanghai is the way to go… china is a lot nicer too. and its a great place to get some bang for your bucks. again: shanghai!
Didnt someone say (parts of) Shanghai resemble a Big Taipei (gone slightly wrong) but a lot more wild wild west to it?
It sounds like fun for a young critter, certainly more bang for his buck and more buck for his bang.

If you want to know more about Shanghai women read this.Opening Up: Youth Sex Culture and Market Reform in Shanghai
If you search the internet you will quickly find how world famous Shanghai women are. There are many books written about them. Furthermore I believe around 1900, Shanghai was the Bangkok of 100 years ago.
I believe that James Farrer visited like 1000 or 2000 nightspots in Shanghai. He went to the equivalent of pool halls in the west. He even talks about women which are called cabbages in the Mandarin. They are older women who will pay for everything to have sex with a younger handsome guy.
Woah, I’m getting a very wild wild west more down and dirty feel in Shanghai which is definitely some plus points. That book looks interesting, perhaps I’ll read it up before heading out.
stanny, below are only some of the forumosan threads to consider when comparing Taiwan and China. Not sure how useful they might be if the only concern is getting some, though.

Well done, young TK. :bravo:
Ryan the third,
How is China nicer?
Deuce,
There are some nice looking Taiwanese gals…but damn I can’t believe all the fat,overweight ones. And the fashion crimes… Fat Taiwanese gals wearing clothing that is too tight…shorts,skirts,etc. Uggggghhhhhh! But alas, some So. Koreans do the same. Taiwanese gals are much nicer overall than So. Korean ones.
Hi, you say that you don’t speak Chinese.
Are you a white guy or a Taiwanese guy?
The answer to your question depends on whether you are a white guy or a Taiwanese guy.
The Shanghainese girls will not treat the white guys and the Taiwanese guys in the same way.
Generally speaking, if you are a white guy, you should go for Shanghai, because the shanghainese girls worship the white guys, and the shanghainese girls are more likely to be impressed by a white face than the taiwanese girls.
By the way, did you like Bangkok? The Thai girls are really good at cheating foreign guys, aren’t they? The foreign men are fair game for the Thai girls…
Not familiar with Shanghai yet. If i can’t please my partners, I may have to do more time in Asia - go to shanghai or tokyo (fingers crossed i don’t get that unlucky twice). To be frank, 3K USD a month will get you not much more than hopping around bars, eating out at nice restaurant on weekends, dating a girl here and there, and having a good time with some poor expats who are here to teach. If you’re in town for business like i am, there are lots of ways to use and abuse your budget. One of my younger guys at work (from the US) allocated 100% of his bonus to “fun”. Between him and a couple of other guys, they’re renting a multi-level apartment. Chicks love it. I recommend it. To live it up like a true bachelor, you need to drop somewhere around 5K at least if your goal is to live like a porn star without going over the top. Getting ass is really easy in Taiwan - all you have to do is to throw a kick-ass party, many times, and someone will always stick around to go home with you. But, you can’t be ugly. If you’re ugly, you’ve got to be suave and shit. For that, maybe one of the guys in the forum can help you with that, how to be a nice guy etc. If you got looks, you can drop it down to around 4K USD but you gotta have style. I would NEVER suggest anyone to cab or use public transportation - quality girls (by quality, i’m not talking ivy leaguers or the intellectual type, unless that’s what you’re looking for… then, don’t read this post) can smell your true net worth pretty quickly. It doesn’t seem like your goal is to stick around long. Mine isn’t either. So, nothing you say needs to be true, but everything you do needs to have style. Your apartment will be a rental so should your dating life - rent them, don’t buy them. One of my coworkers got two girls pregnant and i can tell you that it’s nothing you want to deal with especially in a backwards society like Taiwan. The more expensive your rentals are (not talking about apartments or cars here), the more expensive ones want you.
Alright, i should be getting back to work… it’s been fun.
If you need 5K US to get girls in China you must be pretty fungly!
Yeah, i’m pretty ugly. Whatever makes you feel better. You and I don’t look for the same kind of girls and we don’t have the same kind of fun. You and your boys think you want to have nice night out, go out to a club/bar, meet a girl or two, buy her a drink, and maybe bang her a week later after another few more drinks or coffee. I import styles right from L.A. to Taipei - the more I spend the more I expect from my girls. None of us is looking for this oh-i-like-your-culture-it’s-so-cool-that… crap. My guys and I at work have set a goal to hit a certain number. Work’s stressful, deals don’t always close, and we don’t always hit our numbers at work. But, this is one number i WILL hit! So, I’m not judging you, and you don’t judge me. Sometimes it costs more to maintain your girl - not all Taiwanese girls know how to take care of themselves, you know, with waxing, tanning (this is the hardest mofo part, convincing them to tan), and working out. don’t get me started on the hair/waxing thing… you know how i feel about that. it makes me cringe just thinking about it…
