Why Chinese women seem more aggressive and heartless?
I just noticed it all the time. The woman who is held hostage remains unwavering in demeanor. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2600008/Pictured-Terrifying-moment-cleaver-wielding-man-grabs-hostage-street-threatens-cut-throat-police-tackle-ground.html A chinese woman shoots a man multiple times and seems unfazed. http://youtu.be/2frp1b7JhDs It seems like chinese men are very weird and the women are heartless. There was also a story of a man who was forced to go shopping with his wife so superman-ed off the level and suicides, along with this video of an abusive woman. http://youtu.be/j3sMIIEmKpw
What is the difference between Chinese women and Japanese women?
Personal experience: Japanese women tend to be very polite, quiet, and demure almost. This is my experience when I vacationed to Japan over the summer, so of course, I'm probably only seeing a facet of their personality. Also, high-pitched voices. I was honestly shocked when I heard grown women speaking so high. I thought it was just an anime thing.Chinese women, on the other hand, are a lot more assertive. In some cases, they can almost be called mean. Many of them will not deal with bullshit, and they WILL tell you what they think. If you live in America, they're actually not that far off from American women. Most of the time, even more.Speaking as a Chinese American in this case. Pretty much every Chinese woman I know are the last people I want to fuck with.
Why are some mainland Chinese people so rude, impolite, and lacking in manners while travelling? I love Beijing and this land so much, I want to make it more lovable.
I think, as Lauren stated, it has a lot to do with Mao and the Cultural Revolution. I have encountered dozens upon dozens of situations where mainland Chinese have been quite rude.Several times in the store people would just jump in front of me in line. (They think selfishly, as one's own well-being being the most important)On the train, sometimes the attendant/stewardess would just open the cabin door without knocking. (They don't care to be polite, just to do the bare minimum)People constantly spit on the ground, sometimes even indoors.I have seen people throw litter out the windows of the building I live in.People here often are willing to do whatever it takes to make money, even at the expense of the planet and the well-being of humanity (Think of all of the factories without pollution controls, etc.)People are willing to do whatever it takes to have face/for the admiration of others. (People will buy a car even when they practically never drive it, only to show off for driving friends or for special events)I used to say please, thank you, and excuse me all the time. My assistant teacher told me everyone thought I seem too weak and foolish since I was too polite. Since then, I try not to be overly polite any more.In the gym, Chinese guys will always say how foreigners are weaker than them and how I am ugly, have a gut, etc. The funny thing is, I am probably the only competitive powerlifter in the entire gym I go to, yet they just love to bad-mouth me for being a foreigner. In larger cities I don't think this is as common. I chalk it up to insecurities on their part. They don't realize I can understand their Chinese.People don't typically value honesty here. They believe it is foolish to be too honest, and that you will never become successful this way. People love to yell stuff at me when I walk by, not expecting an answer. They might say "Hello", but it's not for the purpose of conversation, moreso it's like they are looking at a monkey in the zoo.Some people working in the store will keep an extra close eye on me here, even though I am a pretty clean cut looking guy, just because I am a foreigner. They act as if foreigners are all criminals or something.Of course, not all of these apply to all Chinese, but I believe it is good to bring these things to light so Chinese people may learn how to become more polite in future generations.
How come all asian women/females are all so strict, serious, stern, and mean?
Every single asian women I know are all the same. Strict, stern, serious, mean, heartless, ruthless, etc. Why is this? Why are all asian women alike in this persona? Why are they all like this?
What exactly in Chinese culture compels Chinese people to avoid eye contact and to have an elusive look?
There is an absurd belief in many Western cultures that eye contact is an indicator of sincerity, in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. This belief pushes people to make eye contact when it is neither necessary nor helpful.At the same time, many cultures worldwide associate eye contact with equality, so making eye contact with a stranger would be an extreme of presumption. Different cultures deal with such impoliteness in different ways; but if a Westerner tries to force eye contact with someone from any of those cultures, then they will seem to be avoiding it.In other words, you are forcing them to have an elusive look. Stop it.
Why are most Russian men so tough?
Russians, for the most part, don’t have a problem accepting responsibility for their actions. As a corollary — we don’t have a problem *taking action*, without concerning ourselves with “what would people think of me”.Let me dissect your examples from the Russian’s point of view.“I saw this dad start a fight because a man was harassing his daughter” — I see a grown man harassing a kid, MY kid. No one gets to do that to my kid. In America/Europe you call the police, write a bunch of reports, waste a crapload of everyones time, including your own, and the end result is *at most* a restraining order for this particular adult from your particular kid. Which means he can happily continue harassing other kids. The alternative: I spend a few minutes getting to he bottom of the problem and, if I find the harassment unwarranted, I beat the crap out of this dude to make sure the lesson firmly sinks in — don���t mess with kids. End result will be much more effective.“I saw a man get out of his car in the middle of the road, went to the car in front of him smashed the windows and grabbed the thieves out of the car.” — again, I could call the police, by the time they get there the thieves will be long gone, they may never find them, even if they do — whatever was stolen will be long gone. Nobody wins. On the other hand, I can just go there myself and retrieve the stolen property, maybe apprehend he thieves in progress, wait for the cops. Thieves get arrested, stolen property restored to its rightful owner. Everyone wins (except the thieves). Much more efficient and productive.
