Winston gets a little reflexive/combative on his 37th birthday - this is all Winston, a single speech, with a little bit of background scenery

 

 

This comment seemed a little out of place

@Winston China doesn''t welcome any white trash like you ...you just a piece of junk, a class-F foreigner. You contributed to China nothing, but did a lot of damage on the images China and Chinese images by lies. The only thing you are really good at is making lies, being hypocritical, and baiting anti-Chinese haters and other white trash on YouTube. We Chinese give you your trophy wife for free ...and please just move your ass out of China now... you a piece 37 years old crap.

This one is fairly standard stuff for most of us old timers, and tends to over-generalize.

 

But his advice about the girlfriend who wouldn't walk next to him is spot-on, in my book - you DON'T need to write off too much abuse as being a "cultural difference"

During our first year together, Li and I lived in Hefei, the capital city of Anhui Province. This is a very conservative part of China and I could tell you stories that would make your skin crawl. Li often would walk with me arm in arm and she, more than once, got into verbal battles with guys on the street. This of course led to me giving the guy a "shut up or I am gonna kick your ass" look, which usually brought things to an abrupt end. Still, it was not an easy situation. Once we moved down to Shantou things were a bit more relaxed as this was a special economic zone, lots of foreigners living there, and much western influence. On the whole, I would say what SerpentZA is saying is generally true. I would say it is especially true when China is going through one of its "anti-foreigner" phases. These things tend to come and go. This is more true than it was when I lived there (1997-2003). The Internet community is far more influential than it was in my time over there.

Yep, I went to see the wife one time during the time when the Chinese jet bumped into the American spy plane and the jet crashed and killed the pilot. That was the only time that I felt uncomfortable in China. No touching the wife then. We were coming back to the in in laws home just a little after dusk. In a gated community of course. At the sidewalk leading to the door where we were to go into the building. About 30 feet I guess. There stood a group of 40 something aged men. About 6-7 of them. No one was saying a word and we could see them from about 200 feet away when we rounded the corner of another apartment building. I had a wine bottle in a bag was about all that I had for self defense. As we approached half of them were on one side of the sidewalk and the other half were on the other side. I was ready with my hand on the neck of the bottle but you know they never said a word. I suspect if we were all lovie dovie the situation many very well have ended badly but I kept my distance from her for this reason and if the shit hit the fan I didn't want her to close. Never happened again.

I was there at that time as well, along with the time NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. I have posted that story a couple of times so I won't bore the members with yet another rendition of my travails of that night, including bottles and bricks through the window at 2 am. Li had it even worse. I had no problem with the spy plane incident, but the embassy bombing, which killed three people, was a different story. The excuse that they were using outdated maps did not go over too well.

Looks like they're finally realizing what they have in their own backyard

An excellent discussion between C-Milk and Michael, both fathers of mixed race children in China. Michael is the father of 'Raising Shanghai', which is another YouTube channel about his daughter, who has lived her entire life in Shanghai.

 

What is it Like Raising a MIXED RACE Kid in China?

 

 

Published on Oct 16, 2017

Hey Laowinners!

I have a mixed race (Chinese and white) daughter, and raising her in China has been a challenge and a reward. My friend Michael has raised his mixed children in China for over 8 years. We talk about the advantages, Chinese and western perspective, and our experiences having mixed race children in China.
