S: that's true. But I have a low opinion of those women who go out with
foreigners.
N: oh, why?
S: I think some Chinese wonem marry foreigners for money while others just
want to live abroad. There is no true love between them.
N: I wouldn't say that's totally true. I've met many happy intercultural
couples.
S: well, then why aren't there many East-West couples where the man is a
Chinese and the woman is a Westerner?
N: I guess it's because the Chinese women are more attractive to Western
men.
S: or because they are less attractive to to Chinese men.
N: what do you mean?
S: you know, usually the woman is in her thirties and she is a left
girl.
N: a left girl? What's that?
S: they're called that because they're left behind on the shelf. They're
also known by their three H's---high diploma, high salary, and high degree.
N: and they're also known as the three S's—single, stuck, and born in the
seventies.
S: definitely! So most of these women go for Western men.
N: you have a point here, but I believe some mixed marriages are based on
true love.
S: that' for sure but very few. |
