    @@susanohara4274 yeah I guess so, I might not of been clear in my comment and what I was thinking about. I don't put too much value in test scores as I believe that everyone has a gift, rather it's making a person comfortable and letting them express themselves in a positive way to find solutions with the knowledge they possess. Asian culture puts the children under pressure to achieve, and really stifled that creative spark, and it showed how they treated a (friendly) stranger. The strict culture has positive effects too....so, I should not be stereo typing, as it can appear in anyone.

    I have lived in Thailand for more than 12 years. When Chinese come to Thailand and bring their Chinese Culture here, Thai people do their best to ignore their rude and crude ways. Spitting and blowing snot rockets on the floors and sidewalks, obnoxiously loud conversations on their cell phones, and their aggressive/grabbing and fondling style with the young Thai ladies, as if all Thai ladies work on the streets. Most hotels here have "Chinese floors only" void of carpeting that is difficult to clean the snot rockets, spit and spilled food. We are all aware of the Chinese culture as the Chinese make it ever so obvious but they also refuse to acknowledge any other culture but their own, as if it was the only civilized culture in the world. As a half European/half Asian man, I acknowledge the differences and uniqueness of every culture and attempt to retain the best of each and overlook the worse of each. Chinese have their flaws as well as their qualities. Unfortunately, when Chinese visit Thailand, we see the majority to be arrogance and culturally ignorant of any other culture aside their own.

I freak when I see people touching the bottom of shoes 🤢 Most people will ask for some newspaper for example if their shoes are dirty and they don’t have an enclosed porch to leave them in x It’s amazing that they don’t do that, but happy to let children do their business in the streets, have disgusting public toilets, including there not being toilet roll and using hands & water 🤮 Where’s the hot water and liquid soap? Nasty, where are the food stalls washing their hands & using the toilet…I feel sick writing that 😂

    RCXDerp something western media says about China might be true, but there's absolutely no drug allowed and no drug at all! We've already paid enough for drug use that the entire population hates drug... Search Google for "the opium war" And also, since tobacco and alcohol is a normal thing, young Chinese growing up never give a fvck about that, it's so common that they don't care. (It's like daily common, not like craze common) So actually there's not a lot of people addicted to anything... Except for video games or anemei...

    jeffrman777 well i live in the west (even though i am mixed) and i agree on most of these.. i think asian cultures are much better.. more peaceful and reserved.. calm and much more respectful compared to most western cultures.. i like how people in asia are much more reserved when it comes to showing affection because if i see anyone making out in the street i just really want to slap them and tell them to get a room.. i don’t need to see two people basically eating eachothers faces.. knowing that in asia this is frowned upon makes me very tempted to move to an asian country.. simply because i was actually raised with alot of asian customs (my great grandmother was asian.. we think se was indonesian seeing as we live in holland and there was alot of slavery in indonesia that later brought alot of them to our country.. though this is on my mums side.. on my dads side i’ve got african and native american.. ) basically some of the things like taking off your shoes when entering someones house are things that i was taught early and that have stuck to me ever since.. i mean it’s just nasty to walk all over someones house with outside shoes on for that same floor only to be walked by one of the residents who is walking around on bare feet.. only for them to get all of the outside bacteria on their feet...

    Litch The Shinigami There is some truth in what you said, but I do acknowledge that there are many elements in Chinese culture that can be very toxic. Many things about the culture are double-edged swords that are very good in some ways and very bad in other ways, depending on the context. Parenting for example is one of these things that I think we should strike a balance between the Eastern way and the Western way.

    It's also depending from which chinese province they are from, they may just not like the food. My GF is cantonese and the food there is very light, very few herbs and such and little salt. In comparison to other food which one is used to, my gf reacts to bitter, sour and salty very sensitive because she is not used to it. Therefor the food can be seen too intensive in flavor for her. Has nothing to do with nationalism lol. It's just a different food culture. You share lots of dishes instead of just having one for yourself. They even share 1 pizza for 6 people and have different pasta etc, if they order other countries dishes (at least in china). Just because people voted Italian food the most, doesn't mean all voted for it ... you can still have your own opinions on food lol.

    As a Chinese person, the only thing that really get to me is the fact that us chinese are often miss portrayed. When I first moved overseas at 5 years old, I was always bullied, harassed, hit, and insulted because kids in my class were taught the wrong things about my culture. I think this applies to many nations because people judge them based on generalized stereotypes and tend to forget that everyone is different within those confines. I love your videos, and best of luck to everyone in 2019 :)

    I know this comment is 4 years old now but want to add this is very true, we get taught so many misconceptions and stereotypes about China that aren't necessarily true. I was talking with a Chinese girl for a while and she thought me such much more about China and its actual culture, and the same way around with her knowing false things about western culture, there is also a lot of things that are just the same in both cultures. Especially younger people would agree more to western ideals

    If you came to america and were the target of bullying, it's not because of where you came from, it's because of how you behave when you got here. The only people who are the target of bullying are people who need to modify their behavior to match the rest of the people in their peer group. Also, the USA has NOTHING on bullying when it comes to Asian countries like China and Japan! USA students can't even attend a Japanese school because of how harshly they'd be treated. Kids in the USA accept all foreigners, unless their behavior is strange or appalling, like not wearing underarm deodorant. Fit in and you'll have a good time. Act like a fool and you'll be treated as such.

I am coming to China this summer (Changsha, HuNan) and I really appreciate all your hard work and the quality content that you provide in your vids. I never thought I would learn so much from youtubers and my GF who lives in Changsha really appreciates that I am now more aware of the obstacles ahead of us and i am more understanding now of our differences. You have given me the basics to "Stay Awesome" when i come to China for the first time. Thank you for doing this and in a most humble way as well! More power!

    Hey Serpentza, I have been hooked to your channel for a few weeks now. I've lived in China for 7 years (3 in Beijing and 4 in my beloved Chengdu). A bit more than a year ago I came back to Europe (Italy) with my Chinese wife (Im currently posting under her account, enough with the parenthesis now) and our two young kids. We left China for them, as for all its current problems Italy is about 100 times a better place for growing them. Few countries can get more frustrating than China, and by the looks of it it's not going to get better, yet seeing your videos makes me miss it so damn much. Keep up the good work, sooner or later I will find the time to publish my own (rather enormous) material on the subject.

If the mother likes you, she can convince the father. Bring gifts, the more expensive the better. Chocolates for the mother, alcohol for the dad. Check with your girlfriend first though, she'll know what her parents like.

    Actually, despite the fact that Germany is quite a modern country, air conditioning is not very widespread. On the other hand, most houses have central heating which I heard is not that widespread in countries where airconditioning is widespread. And if we Germans want fresh air, we just open up our windows. Hanging your wash outside in your garden or balcony is not considered to be a sign that you are poor but that you are concious of the problems of the environment and want to protect it by saving electricity and therefore, it is even very popular amongst young people. So, even developed countries have different standards of living if you look at the facts of airconditioning, or using dryers or central heating.

As a result, many foreigners just see a developing country named China, but have no idea of the extraordinary culture which shapes China's past and future.

    Simon Purnell Go to Chinese museums in every provinces of China and you can see an iceburg of Chinese culture. They're more convincible than my words. What you saw are bad habbits when living in the city. First, only part of Chinese do so. Second, perhaps 5 to 20 years ago, they lived in the rural areas where have no public toilets and trash cans. It's not easy for them to form new habbits to adapt urban life, especially for the elder. Btw, I think you are smart enough to tell the difference between habbit and culture.

    Rude manners, spitting, shitting and pissing are passive tactics used by China men to drive off invaders from ruling China in the past. They learned this from those dark skin barbarians when they discovered invaders less likely to invade barbarian territory(Bangladesh, Pakistan, Burma, Iran, Laos, Cambodia, Siberia). I would say this tactic is like a double-edge sword, the effect backfired and that made many people in China become more like self-hating traitors in China.
