Let's be fair here. I have a gorgeous, adorable Taiwanese girlfriend
that I am willing to spend the rest of my life with. Not because she
is Hello Kitty, submissive, shallow, brain dead and a good fuck.
Because she calls herself a freak (a surprisingly foxy one) ,
standing out from that essentially numbed crowd that I call most of Taiwan
(excluding the "hen qi guay" lot), in ways that make most other girls
look like total idiots.
My hat goes to her even more knowing that she only lived 3 months in
the US, while being naturally open minded and full of dynamic debates
about all kinds of issues. Yes, she has all those traits that many guys
would want.
There are indeed some very interesting and charming ladies out here,
but to the best of my knowledge, they are depressingly rare. Why?
Because aside from being good at shallow chat followed by a deep fuck,
one, two, here, there and everywhere, most girls here just about do
a good job of sucking in all manner possible. Sex aside, let's not even
get into how much worse it gets for 95% of TW born and raised guys when
it comes to friendship with foreigners.
Yes the long eyelashed and legs empty egg-shells are gold diggers,
oozing superficial arrogance that would turn a sensible man like
myself into a sexual vice animal against it.
Even many of those who can speak decent English will rarely go beyond
conversations about shopping, food, travel (if they dare to pretend knowing
anything worthwhile about the real world beyond American and Japanese
shopping malls) and maybe, just maybe, fun sex.
Take things further into the arts, music, DECENT movies beyond Hollywood,
politics, science and philosophy, I would say that 90% of people in Taiwan
are "educated" to work, not to please the depths of themselves and others
in particularly subtle ways.
The worst thing about all this is that the truly fascinating side of Chinese
culture is either a political conundrum for not knowing which side to choose
, or is slowly sinking face first into oblivion. There is room for tremendous
melting pot in Taiwan, but not much is being done about it.
The family, school, work ethics to my opinion kills people's potential.
Taiwan has grown economically, but it will reach full maturity only after
a hard look at itself in relation to the rest of the world, while learning
to accept and integrate true differences, like other Asian places such as
Singapore have learned to do, to make for a much nicer place to live and
fit in with open minded people.
In the meantime, it comes across as easy for Taiwanese people to be
pleasant and smiling on the surface, but I do believe that their most
visceral personal and social identity dangerously lacks confidence
and awareness with others at best, or is totally uninterested and
racist deep within, ever so silently.
據報導,繼日本NTT DoCoMo公司引進美國 Apple 公司的智能手機iPhone後,日本有3家大型通信公司開始出售iPhone。發售當天在日本東京銀座的 Apple 商店有700多人徹夜排隊等待。但是緊接發售日之後iphone貨源充足,終究沒有引起那種萬人空巷的狂歡。日本部分專家和業界人士則不以為然。他們多認為在智能手機的日常使用方便和性能方面,“日本國產的智能手機優秀多了”。
首先在日常使用中最在意的電池續航方面。據東京都內的家電量販店櫃檯的服務員表示,iPhone用戶的最常表達的不滿就是iPhone續航時間太短。 Apple 公司的官方網站說iPhone 5 c的連續待機時間最大約為250小時,這對最近除了通話功能之外,還要上網看視頻用戶來說這是不夠的。
