		<description>A bit late reply to this post, but Ryan, thank you for expressing your feelings.  I truly am shocked and appalled by the injustice and social problems of China.  I am Chinese-American myself, and I will have to say, I never will ever call China my home.  I think it is not my Western views, but pretty much my own beliefs through years of learning and discovering.  Although, I do agree China is making me into a more wiser person about the world, and it has given me more understanding about the lower end of society.  I really look forward to going back, and gladly I&#039;m married to another country, I say kudos for those that have spend more than just a year in this country.  If anything, it is an experience worth trying out at least one time in your life, but I believe there is a life after China. </description>

		<description>Sorry for the spelling mistakes in the previous post. But Ryan&#039;s live feed lags on my computer,characters only appear a few seconds after i press the keys causing me to skip some essential words.

corrections:-
&quot;It is just that they are not very good at synchronizing their research with manufacturing.&quot;

&quot;I do not believe it is a lack of talent,etc......&quot;</description>

		<description>@David Scott Lewis :- You say you have worked in samsung. But looking at it from your point of view does&#039;nt working in a non-american/korean organization probably reduce your silicon valley  prestige. Also you yourself quote :- &quot;Being in china makes things worst&quot;. Does that mean that the level of IT infrastructure in china is much lower than your expectation.

@Fred :- You say that America is a beautiful country and china is not. What makes you say so? Also i do not think everything chinese study is state sponsored stuff. I mean Beijing University is ranked 15th in the world and Chinese Academy of Sciences as far as i know does world class research. Even  in US universities chinese students are generally very hardworking and secure pretty good scores(I am not generalizing). It is just tare not very good at synchronizing their research with manufacturing. Even today it is a shame that china has to rely on cheap ineffective proucts. Do not believe it is a lack of talent,only a lack of proper application in my opinion,though i am not sure the chinese government is doing anything to remedy this problem. But even in the aspect of work culture and education i think taiwanese are far ahead of chinese.</description>

		<description>Tarheel13: Not real clear on what you mean by &quot;apropos&quot;, as it means &quot;pertinent, or appropriate&quot;, which I agree - it is.

As for why I said it, if you read through her posts, or take the long trip through this blog&#039;s comments, you&#039;ll see she generalizes all &quot;Americans&quot;, or &quot;White Guys&quot; as a certain way (racism), and does so in a negative light (ignorant cunt).

Your later comment on my video blog seems to have changed your mind about me. Which, in my opinion, is beside the point. This blog is not at all about self-aggrandizement. I&#039;m a pretty humble guy, but if I speak with passion or authority on something it&#039;s because I&#039;m quite sure of my position.

Ms. Yu, on the other hand, works to position herself as some sort of expert on cock size and the re-education of the masses of stupid girls out there that get involved with white guys... (I return to that racist ignorant bit above). As my wife is Chinese (and obviously involved with a white guy), I find her insulting not only to myself, but also for insinuating that my wife has somehow betrayed her race, or done a stupid thing by falling in love with me.

I didn&#039;t think this needed to be stated, but people of any race or culture background can be in completely healthy and respectful relationships with each other. Ms. Yu promotes otherwise.

If she was saying the same thing about another racial group or if she was a guy saying it about women, she&#039;d be considered a complete dick... but somehow she&#039;s considered a liberal truth-sayer? Bullshit.

She&#039;s a racist, a sexist, and a spammer (she routinely posts comments on this blog and on others not to add to the conversation, but only to ruffle feathers and plug her site).

As for me bringing my values and showing my ignorance. If open-minded, tolerant and egalitarian views are considered ignorant, I&#039;m happy to be called such.</description>

		<description>Rebecca Yu: I actually loved your post. It certainly got under the skin of these arrogant American lads. For Ryan to call you a cunt is so apropos. Anyone who runs a blog of pure self-aggrandizement such as his must be a pathetic little fellow. BTW, this is my first and last visit. The only ignorance being displayed here are by the whiteys who bring their values and expect others to respect, share, honor, WTF. Trite and sad.</description>

		<description>Sounds to me like rebecca either got her little heart broken by an expat or can&#039;t get laid. 

Your generalizations are so off the mark little girl. 

I am an expat. I am neither a white nerd or fleeing my country. I have never had trouble meeting women in America, nor did I come here on a sex tour. Actualy, Chinese girls don&#039;t do much for me. 

I am here taking advantage of global market economics.I will stay in China as long as it is profitable, or until I have amassed enough personal wealth to leave. China will never be home, nor will it ever compare to my home. America is a beautiful country. China is not. Plain and simple. 
I have young mixed race son that I will not subject to the pathetic excuse of an education system that exists here. I want him to have opportunities to experience life as he grows not just study state sponsored propaganda. I want him to be involved in sports and experience nature, and not just study seven days a week. I&#039;d like for him to have an open mind and the ability to think for himself. That will not happen if we stay in China. 

Think before you write girl. Thare are many reasons why expats come to China.</description>
