I know of a few of my friends here, whose parents flat out said "Don't bring home a Korean wife!"
I have to agree with Gopher though, What use are they?

Before I was engaged,I was ususally accompanied by ladies(Korean and other-wise) who enjoyed my company and whom I held mutual regard for and vise-versa. It's been said; Like minds attract; and birds of a feather flock together. I also have no patience for self-introducing ingratiating males. Especially K-men as the ladies involved with me, 1/ 4/5, just happened to be attractive, I make no apologies for short shifting them from the scene.

Ladies who I choose to know, have a strong respect for themselves through remaining aware of their own cultural/professional backgrounds. And in that respect they maintained a strong sense of self about who they are and where they were going in life.

From what I've observed over the years with each new wave of female teachers, a whole not so new bunch of Korean chaps were always there to greet them. The anticipated "experiences" these eagerly awaiting local lads will eventually procure I am sure, be "appreciated highly" by their future Korean wives. If, they(K-lotharios) actually hone new skills to improve(beyond the Local porn how to flicks) in during the boudour perfomance. although nine times out of ten, this I doubt.

Riding the White Horse, has to be the most racist term ever coined. You ladies should feel seriously assaulted and affronted if this is how K-men see and percieve you. This would translate into affirmed racial superiority through actualizing the commodification and denigration of another culture, through their reproductive females(the most revered members of any culture as bearers and nurturers of future generations) as tissue-paper concubines. That's like gleefully demonstrating in the face/s of the world's most powerful and proven race/s saying; "I'm better than you" look what I'm doing with your daughters/sisters. Of course, being miles from home and the discerning eyes of family and friends, it's all too easy to experience a "bit of color", as they say.

Western women should exercise more self-respect and restraint and not selectively dismiss their powerful birthright. They are bearers of a superior race that has introduced technologies, systems, etc which have molded the world through superior application of intellect, ingenuity, foresight, and courage.

These "new" emerging miracle economies are merely piggy backing. Their cultures(I'm talking about Korea'Japan as examples) were graciously left almost intact apart from the truncating of the Emporer in Japan(general McArthurs initiative) so as the cultures could be able to adapt and develop with minimum westernization and minimalising of the culture. With native cultures and researchable histories of the impact and influence of western emergence on native cultures, Japan and Korea got damn lucky.

This was definately a break from old tried and proven world systems of development and under-development theories unprecedented in history. Of course now Korean cultural pride can make claims toward this political/historic/economic/cultural seachange as being due solely to unflappable cultural superiority. certainly worked well for Mr. Park.

Korea is but a brief interlude in this life but an awareness and respect for self, and, one's intelligence is needed for a lifetime.

How will you say you met that challenge?

Don't be sucked in.

And, I don't care if I get flamed by liberal apologists, PC police, or miffed and affronted females. I am and always have been highly appreciative and respectful of the female gender and they(females) have been known to reciprocate equally.

Concentrate on class acts, not puffed up nationalists with undersized weaners who are too cheap to spend 25,000won on a pink window K-gal.

They really are out there.

Wow.

I was watching M.A.S.H. yesterday, and Hawkeye said something like this "We're all a little crazy here. There's something about this country, that makes all of us nuts".

True that, Alan Alda. True that.

Is "riding the White Horse" an expression translated from Korean into English? Is this something Koreans say among themselves?

That would totally depersonalize sex for me. I'd simply feel like the most conveniently available White Horse, as if which ever one of us was on hand would do...

By the way, got her number?

[ulsanchris]

i've ridden a white horse. Yup an actual white horse. Well actually it was a little offwhite. She was a great horse.
