I know there are lots of Western people living in Asia now teaching English and stuff, what is it like?

Do you like it there? How do people behave towards you?
>>
It's like having a light shade of skin, but in the asian continent as opposed to the americas or even africa for that matter.

Went on a trip around China for 2 weeks.
Lots of pointing, and pictures taken of you. My friend was really popular with the ladies due to his pale skin, blue eyes, and long blond hair.
>>
It's fun at first, but after a while the people will drive you insane and make you wonder why you thought moving there was a good idea.

>passive aggressive
>extremely racist but also have a massive inferiority complex (what they say in English is often completely different to what they say in their own languages when they think no-one is listening/reading)
>no sense of civic duty or responsibility, extremely selfish
>>
I lived in South Korea for 5 years. You'll get a lot more attention and it will be easier to meet people.
There will also be more people who want to have sex with you.
But not because they like you but because they want to experience having sex with a white piggu and tell their friends about it.
Because of cultural differences (and racism), serious relationships are harder than in a white country.

Anything in particular you want to know?
>>

Funny, I'm in Korea now. Did you learn Korean while you were there?

>>25511301
I've lived in Tokyo for 3 years. It's ok in general, people don't really care about your skin color (unless you're black, you'd just stand out too much then) or where you are from if you don't stir up any shit there.
>>
Asian guy here. White people that are into asian cultures almost always do it wrong because they don't learn or care how to properly interact with asians. Their shitty attempts, even if they know the language, just come across as insulting. I know it's harder for them because they weren't raised by asians but I wish they would try harder to assimilate if they apparently like the culture. That's how I feel about whites in Asia and whites in the west that love "asian culture". It's no surprise that every weeb that goes to Japan feels out of place because they don't know how to get along with asians.
>>
>>25511458
>Koreans

I really want to like Koreans, but their Yeolpok shit and general neurotic behaviour is really hard to take after a while. And worse, contagious.

There's the saying "Around blacks, never relax." The equivalent for Koreans would be, "Around Koreans, you will never relax because they won't let you."

I've never been to any country that makes you feel more stressed out and uncomfortable just by the people being themselves.

Do explain, insulting how?
>>
>>25511485
I was there for 5 years, so obviously, yes. I speak it very well.
It's pretty easy, too. A lot easier than Russian for instance which I had to learn as well.
I skipped Hanja though to be honest. Didn't need it really, either.

>>25511522
While you might be right, I think the reality is that Asian societies are quite honestly for the most part quite suffocating and unpleasant to live in. There's a reason why even wealthy Koreans, Chinese and Taiwanese still emigrate to the West permanently in large numbers despite suffering racism and hardship of a sort when they get there.

Ironically, the people who enjoy Asia the most are the drunken ignorant frat-boy types who drink and screw their way across the continent without trying to learn anything about the culture. They get the good stuff (money, sex, tasty food) without the bad stuff (suffocating social expectations and knowing too much unpleasant information about Asian societies and how they really work).

The Westerners (and Asian-Americans, too) who end up totally crazy and bitter in Asia are (sadly) more often than not the people who actually tried. Because East Asian cultures are difficult to adapt to even for Asians, and people who learn an Asian language well while there can't help but start to feel some of the pressure and stress that native East Asians are constantly under.

>>25511301
I've a cousin who's been there for 12 years now. Originally went to Japan to teach Engloish as a job, ended up staying and marrying a slanty-eyed fuck.
They've come back a few time, and Hiro is actually a pretty cool dude and a bro, and his father is more clever than you'd think for an oldfuck who can barely speak englih. My brother tried to get him fucked up on booze at the bachelor party, but Hiro's pops turned the tables on him and got my bro puking in the streets instead. Was good fun.

We still got Hiro dressed up in a bridesmaid outfit and marched him through town on a leash, though. It was no tradition I had ever heard on in my time in town, but Bro is a convincing con artist and so we now have a new family tradition, thanks to clueless nip fucks.

Anyways. Hookaido fucks are pretty cool folk. Also, since I bought their grandmother a book on Canada, apparently I am now favoured by the entire clan and would be given very honoured treatment if I ever went for a visit. Too bad I've no interest in Japan.

I have been in Japan for 5 years doing that English teaching scam. It's cool at first but it's no kind of career. It's just good as a temporary fun gap year kind of thing. Now I am trapped I feel like

People here are great (I am in Central Japan near Nagoya) but occasionally racist. Not like Mississippi Burning racist, but just like a racism lite. I got told I wasn't allowed to rent an apartment from one landlord because I don't speak Japanese even though I am functionally fluent.

>>25511663
You can't win being white in Asia.

If you act stereotypically "white" or "foreign" as Asians perceive it (loud and boisterous, sexually aggressive, nonintellectual), people perceive that as threatening, barbaric, and deviant.

On the other hand, whites who are relatively timid, humble, respectful, bookish, learn the language and all that stuff are often accused of being losers back home, nerds, pushovers and so on who are "latching on" to Asian culture in an attempt to escape their low social status (a lot of Asians have such a strong inferiority complex that they can't help but think that whites who "lower" themselves by associating themselves with Asia or Asians too much must be the defective article).

Infuriating people.

The Chinese are materialistic as fuck. Their entire culture revolves around social status and flaunting their wealth and money, they're practically Jews. It's "keeping up with the Joneses" to an insane degree.

I was in China for two years.

Tall white male. Literally the easiest time I've ever had. I slept with really fucking rich girls it was great.

Seriously unless you are really really ugly (or short) it's worth it for the experience.
>>
>>25511756
That's like complaining about the noise white people make in bars, you fucking moron. When I say the correct tone of voice, I mean for the situation. The fact that most whites are stupid is another reason they can't get along with asians. A smart person can learn to get along people of any ethnicity.
>>

Ask one what they think of an Otaku.
>>
>>25511779
I think it's mostly foreigners that tend to shame other foreigners for 'going native'

Actually, Asians for the most part respect foreigners who know their languages well, but some are a bit intimidated, because of how competitive they are.

Everything is a competition to Asians so they don't like anyone else potentially getting an advantage in any way especially foreigners.

No, you have to be white.

I remember being in a club in Wudaokou, beijing. There were two black guys by the bar looking glum as fuck. They asked me where is my girlfriend, I said I just arrived. I asked where are yours?

They said

"we won't get one, we aint white"

I felt bad for them, but that's just the way it is in Asia. Be white or go home.

For some reason though lots of girls I met from South west China were coalburners. They literally can't fuck anything other than black though as nobody will touch them again.

Couldn't watch more than a minute of this. I'm Asian and even I'm disgusted. Talk about an inferiority complex. I'm not short and ugly like most of my people so I don't feel it but it's sad that they do. I'd understand if it was a nigger but it was just a white guy minding his own business. Apparently he had an asian girl with him but that isn't illegal. I might have punched the asian guy, to be honest. I'd rather be a good person than accepted.

Yeah, I can attest to that. When I was there there fucking lines that were at least 7 meters to enter stores like Gucci and Carolina Herrera, the type of store most people cant afford to buy (including me)

Any place where there are no non-whites and non-whites are so unknown as to be like mythological creatures in childrens' story-books.

Iceland?
Finland?
Montana?
Estonia?

>The Asian version of average /pol/ user
>>
>>25512132
Most whites don't actually feel sexually threatened by non-whites, because of how racist white women are. Most of that cuck stuff is either blacks/ledditards trying to troll /pol/; or /pol/acks making fun of the leftist fringe who is into cuckold stuff because they're mentally ill.

Whites feel threatened territoriality because of all the non-whites moving into their lands usually bringing their own women with them - not because of non-white male sexuality per se (for the most part).

White women tend to stick with their race; sure some sexually aggressive non-white men resort to rape and sexual abuse to get white women, but for the most part, white flight means that even as whites recede, non-white men have few opportunities to mix with white women.
>>
>>25512107

Only Montana is valid on that list. Iceland is multikulti, Finland is getting increasingly irritated with Somalians, like everyone else, and Estonia is literally a Nazi pocket. As in, it was the Nazi occupied bit that never really fell as comprehensively as Germany itself did.

>>25512783
Funny, I always thought this was true for a lot of Asians. They pretend to dislike "low class" uneducated whites, but they actually prefer them - because they don't make them feel as insecure and are easier to make fun of.

I've never know a place in the US where that isn't rude. They were probably outcastes before they got there.

Taught English in tokyo for two years. Tall white american sperg here.

What's been said in this thread is pretty much right on.

It's an interesting experience and teaching English when you're young can feel pretty cushy and comfortable, but it's in no way a stable lifelong job and you are sort of a second-class citizen. Getting laid is easy but finding a meaningful relationship is hard with the culture difference and racism. The downsides of Japan (crowded, culture of overtime work, xenophobia, few western stores and goods, horrifically hot summers, 13 hours from home, visa hassles) become amplified as life goes on and the fun aspects (good food, skinny girls, good tourist sites, language study, fun alcohol culture) become diminished.

Almost everyone I know who worked there has moved on, except for a super weeb and a half-japanese girl whose parents still live in Tokyo. There are reasons they left.
>>
>>25511435
Asia is not a country.
>>
>>25513609
No, but East Asia might as well be.
>>
>>25511522
Then how does one communicate properly?

I generally don't speak at all unless I absolutely have to and when I do I'm relatively short and formal/polite. (Yes. I know that sounds fedora it's just how I was raised)

Would being very reserved and formal be bad?
>>
>>25513684
Im not asian but Japanese and korean are heavy on the honotifics, and the way you speak to someone is predicated on your relationship with them. I know that exists in english but it is more explicit in those languages.they will always use language that maintains distance to outsiders

This would never happen anywhere else in the world. Because everywhere else, Barbie ends up with Ken, not his underemployed, socially-awkward, samurai-sword-collecting neighbor, Kevin.

Whites feel very threatened sexually. There has always been the idea and fear of colored hordes outbreeding whites and stealing white women.

Whites fear dark skins for their physicality and penises, whites fear lighter skinned minorities for their competition and wealth.

In the 19th century, whites literally had to ban miscegenation because too many blacks and asians were marrying white women. Tens of thousands of whites went on riots over single inter racial marriages.

I actually hear a lot about this from every person i know who has dated a Korean (male and female and different races including other Asians) who basically say they are incredibly self-absorbed, materialistic, rude, and very much obsessed with status and power. Korean females will literally ignore you to the point of not looking you in the eye and ignoring your presence if you dont have nice and expensive things with a great job.

You only get to have one job of being an english teacher.

>>25511522
nah I'm Asian and all my Asian families in Asia hate foreigners, they will never welcome a foreigner into their lifestyle only because like any other culture (if not most), see foreigners as a threat to their already static and traditional lifestyle.
