I like the red string bracelets on the wing mirrors of new escalades & hummerspczz wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 6:24 pm I guess its more cultural than geographic. Buddhist based Asians have a different world view than western Christians, and then you have muslim and Hindu and probably a few others. Religion and family are still very important in Asia and poverty is still a major problem so their view on what is and is not important is very different to ours. I am still amazed when I see a house in the village with a dish on top and a big flatscreen tv inside, but not a toilet in sight
east meets west summed up perfectly
they fookin love us
urghhhh Mormons yuk!

Subjective. Where i live, most asians don't think. Or at least not in a way that is meaningful to modern society.

Re: What do Asians think of Westerners?
And some are the same posters with the same handles. Some people just can't deal with open discussions, their prejudices and neuroses start shining through after a while and they end up being dicks and getting banned. Then they start up under a new name, but with the same writing style and issues. You can get a new avatar and a new username, but you can't hide, your bullshit keeps on shining through.frank lee bent wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 6:19 pm interesting thread from the past.
some of the posters here are prolific contributors here now under new handles.

Hang on there while I try to condense the thoughts of 4.5 billion people into an easily digestible form.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Maybe the Cambodians should think more about sending their troops to invade foreign countries and building walls around their borders?
They have different priorities to barang. Just because they do not think the same as us does not mean they are wrong

It,s not about right or wrong, it's about THINKING.

Re: What do Asians think of Westerners?
When in Rome, do exactly what everyone else does. Do not think for yourself! Romans don't like that.

Re: What do Asians think of Westerners?
I don't know about all Asians, but I know most Koreans think Westerners are hairy, oversexed people with big noses. I've lived in China for six years and have no idea what the Chinese think of Westerners... except the Chinese are, in general, friendlier than the Ks.
You could be next.

Re: What do Asians think of Westerners?
Let's suppose someone gives a definitive answer.
What exactly does the OP plan to do with this knowledge?
Not sure of the wisdom of asking a mostly-barang forum, you could just ask some Asians. Just an idea.
