Why is it that whenever a hot (relative term) Chinese woman hops onto the subway, all of the locals go into ‘protect her from the foreign barbarian’ mode?
Today for instance, your humble author was on his way home from a hard but satisfying day at the office and was crowded into the stinkpit they call a subway here. Upon reaching Xidan a local female who was not ugly, but to the locals was a goddes entered my car. All of the sudden, the Chinese phermone ‘ck block’ mentality kicked in and the guys did the macho arm flex self conscious stare at her to see if she is checking out yours truly, and of course she was..
Perhaps its the asymmetric placement of my lateral incisors and bicuspids or the sultry manner in which i stuff my over sized paunch over my belt, but in all third world countries, yours truly is a real hottie. Thus, she was checking me out, no doubt wondering what it would take to get a piece of this action, a USA visa i mean, and the guys were all a tizzy.
Funny thing is that I actually feel sorry for the guys, they look pretty weak. There they sit like some ‘trick willy’ the type who lugs bo li’s ‘ bags up ten flights of stairs then is left at the door only to have her hit the speed dial to make an ‘appointment’ with her English teacher.
But my sorrow has a limit of course as I was looking at one guy in particular who was trying to be discrete but of course failing, and I thought that this poor sap is worried sick Im going to make a move on her when he doesn’t even have the stones to make a play for it himself. In all other countries where my feet have staggered, I have never seen this same thing. In most countries the guys will try to beat you to the punch and chat her up, but here they form his protective barrier of insecurity around her as she still gives you the eye and mouths her digits your way.
At then end of the day you have to feel for these guys though, as about 30milliion of them will have arms like Popeye or a serious gender identity crisis in the coming years. As for me, I really don’t care, I have not seen that much here to write home about…..
