I got a message from a Chinese woman (in her early 30s) who actually said that I looked like an NBA star. Now that's a new one for me... No one has ever said that to me before I replied to her, 谢谢，您美丽的少妇! 您看起来Lucy刘! 实际上，您更好比Lucy刘看!, which is, in English, Thank you, you beautiful young woman! You look just like Lucy Liu! Actually, you look BETTER than Lucy Liu! Then I proceeded to introduce myself to her I wonder how this will play out. Are Chinese women actually good, or should I "Avoid them like the plague", as JamesBond would say?

Lucky bastard!

Thank you for the compliment, but why do you say that?

Chinese women are awesome. That is all.

Since you understand Chinese well, I believe you should continue talking to her.

Actually, I am Black, and I do not know a lick of Chinese at all. I used a Translator to send that to her

Hero, I know you are black. I thought you might have studied Chinese. It is a hard language. Usually learning curve is about 4-5 years. Maybe at year 3 you can write but Chinese have many characters. Much more than Japanese. Japanese is easier to read but still difficult.
