"...the truely indispensible weapon any low wai can and should find there is a cute chinese girlfriend. they know what not to do, where not to go, who not to talk to, etc."

I'll take 2!
 
"I agree with this statement. You may find that you kind of like China. Be careful, though. It is common for westerners to have strange women knock on their hotel doors. A nice local girl may be fun. Others may be dangerous.

mauser,
they leave you alone if you refuse. xie xie, bu. (shay shay, bo - thank you, no).
guess you never learned how to say it.
the hotels all have girls, mostly on the 6th floor. they are all polite and honest in the inland cities. coastal cities are a different matter. street girls are risky.
my sweetie is an english speaking tour guide. she asked me if i was lost in a market one day. 4 weeks later i was lost in the pools of her jet black eyes.

drysdale,
i did last year, and 3 this spring, all girls in the local college. sophmores can share. we needed a wide bed.
i gave them up for the best thing that's ever happened to me.

"I luckilly managed to obtain (don't ask me how) crucial documents exhonerating myself and proving that the official had been lying. I was cleared and the official had to pay 5000 yuan in fines! I had made plans to have a good Chinese friend with a lot of connections take me to the airport and sneak out if it had gone the other way... There are a lot of kind, good hearted people in China... but, like anywhere elase, you always get the slime-balls too."

how true, how true. corruption is rampant, here, and gwan xie is king.

awhile back a cab driver gave my GF's sister ???? when she complained about him not giving her correct change. he grabbed her and pushed her away, so yang li called me and we had him arrested. i brought in my smoothest chinese, and he was bargaining the cash penalty when the chief walked in.

he was told that the low wai had been in his station for 4 hours offering to settle with the driver for two free shots to the face. when the chief told the driver he was gonna allow it, he paid the girl a 500 yuan fine to save his teeth. i was pissed and woulda taken them all. a cab driver here makes 35-50 yuan a day, but new teeth cost more than that.

nothing less than murder ever goes to trial here if cash is available. chinese are very reasonable people when it's to their advantage. there is a time and a place to loose temper.
