I can see how Korean men can be driven to beating hell out K- women, which is why I'm not about to intervene in any noisy domestics on the streets...you just don't know the circumstances.
Korean women are among the most manipulative, m9ind-game playing, mixed-message sending, cheating, bratty creatures on the planet. Most of them are little more than airheads, cellphones and caxe mixes on two legs.
Unless you wise up and start to beat them at their own crazy games, the frustration will ultimately effect itself in physical violence. The best way to win is to date several at once: that way you can take or leave any one of them, because you have options...and you can ditch any one of the brats with a simple handphone call. Get yourself in the driving seat, and no violence will be necessary.



So it's okay to hit women and acceptable? Just thought I'd cut to the chase.

No Urban,

I think Rapier is saying it is ok to hit Korean women.... Rolling Eyes

Slight difference, his prejudice is more focused then that.

So we should be tolerant of the lack of tolerance here?


Truly, your circular logic to avoid the issue is an art form.

You should be a politician, you have a nack for twisting things, it is a real talent.

Yet, you did not deny you preach the same as the two open minded posters who posted before...interesting.

For the record, my statement about us (westerners) being better than them (Koreans) was tongue-in-cheek. If you can't detect sarcasm without some fruity smiley-face-rolly-eyes thingy than that's your problem. But I DO stand by my statement that Koreans are fucked up in many frustrating, backwards and totally non-sensical ways. But if they went to the west they'd say the same about us.......they'd be wrong, but that's what they'd say.

Very Happy Laughing Very Happy Laughing Very Happy Laughing Very Happy (there, how's that?)

And, to get a little off-topic but not that much, I accidentally just watched about 15 minutes of this M-Net concert program/boy band bonanza. I think I'm gay now.

"They'd be wrong" Here again you display your prejudice. If they are "beeped up" and we aren't (as you claim) well we must be better than them.

Thinking male Korean singers are good looking does not make you gay. A lot of them are very effeminate. Wink

Kiwinuts - I'll let your comment slide because I'm a nice guy.
Urban - apparently you didn't catch what I was saying in my post. Even when I toss in the smileys some people don't understand.

There is agression in this country that is very scary.

My first encounter was in a hagwon back in 2001.......we were playing a game. I put my hand on a boys shoulder. He raised his fist to me not once but twice. After making a huge fuss his mother came to see me with a box of orange juice. The director refused to remove the boy. In fact, the next week I had him and his friend to deal with.

College in Andong...........this young man would not stay in the classroom. I locked him out. Classmates let me back in. When I told him he either had to stay in the class or leave he slammed his fist into the door. Glad it was not me. The director brought him by my office the next day to say sorry.

These are just two of the incidences I have had of male violence in Korea. Neither of these incidences were provoked by me, and they happened in a society where someone older is respeceted, and teacher is respeceted plus again.

You tell me.

These stories were not "scary" at all.

Some of the nicest women I have met here have been men Wink

Apple,

Repeated viewings of "The Dirty Dozen" is the order of the day for you. That should help. And lock out M-Net on your remote. Very Happy
