How do western men view Chinese women

One of my Mandarin students raised this interesting topic to me last week, and I talked with my Mandarin students about it.

From an article at  http://news.xinhuanet.com/overseas/2012-09/13/c_123705024.htm


外国男人对中国女人的正面评价是:1、中国女人注重家庭,看重夫妻感情,具有尊老爱幼的传统美德。2、体贴家人,任劳任怨,贤淑顺从,把家庭当作精神的全部。3、吃苦勤劳、意志坚韧,对朋友认真负责,厨艺极佳。

外国男人对中国女人的负面评价是:1、中国女子开放、大胆,为功利不惜一切。2、向往西方社会,虚荣心重、金钱占有欲极强。3、过分依赖家庭,贪图享受,不够浪漫,性生活压抑。



Positive comments:
1. Chinese women focus on their families and values marital relations. They have traditional virtues such as respecting the old and caring the young.
2.  Family considerate, hard working, virtuous obedience.
3.  Hardship industrious, will, tenacity, responsible to friends, excellent cooking skills.

Negative comments:
1. Chinese women are open, bold, utilitarian.
2. Yearning for Western society, vanity.
3. Over-reliance on the family, hedonism, not romantic enough, repressed sex life.
