In April, the Chinese government put out an instructional video that would have been considered crudely propagandistic had it come from some military-information ministry at the height of World War II. It was called “Dangerous Love,” and it warned young Chinese women about falling for sweet talk from foreign students or professors.

Most Asians and Asian countries are fiercely nationalistic and protective of their country and their 'women.' That's something that you have to deal with as a foreigner, even an Asian American living here.

But, all countries are like this, even in the United States. Try being a White man dating a Black woman and see the reactions you get, or vice versa.

The most interesting thing about all of that is what they consider 'handsome' some blond, geeky Edward Snowden lookalike. Food for thought.
