Myth: Chinese women thinks of foreigners as interesting, respectful and faithful which is why they are interested in a serious relationship with men outside of their country.

Truth: This one has some truth in it but still not quite enough to make it a fact.

You see anything that is out of the ordinary is interesting. So naturally a man from a different culture/race/nation would have more unfamiliar traits and new ideas/perception/views to share, which makes him for a more interesting than the already well known local man.

Respectful, now this part may serve to be true or otherwise. Some Chinese women are of the impression that foreign men are more respectful of women because in the ancient Chinese culture, male chauvinism is a very strong factor that survives till today. In that culture, women take a back seat and men aren’t that comfortable with women in power or even women being in equal power. In the West, that revolution has already played out and men are perceived to be more learned, more gracious and certainly more confident in their manhood to accept a woman as his equal. Therefore he gives her due respect. He would discuss with her, consult her and confide in her without prejudice…a trait the Chinese women still find lacking among the male population of great China.

In terms of faithful, I’m not sure if Chinese women actually believe that Western men make for more faithful partners with promises of a life without infidelity. If the idea of faithful comes into their minds, then it is likely due to the fact that they believe in the respect Western men have for their women/wives and that alone would deter a man from committing adultery.

Also, it is true that many men in China have mistresses. But that would seem to be the trait of being a man who has more than just sufficient financial income, not a cultural or racial one. Men around the world have mistresses if they can afford it.

Finally are Chinese women really interested in having a relationship with men outside of their country? Yes…some are and for various reasons. Some believe it is an easy and fast way out of poverty and China. Others believe they can only find their equal in a foreign man because the local men shun successful women. It is a fact that in China, the number of women in power and higher income than their male counterparts are rising and the insecurity of most Chinese man make these women ‘unsuitable wife material’.

So there you have it…the myths and the truths about Chinese Women on the dating foreigners. Not the most pleasant of information, but they are facts, just as the trick to a successful relationship is pure effort and not money.
