Watch Out For Those Chinese Golddiggers

When I first read this article I have to say all I could do was laugh. A few weeks ago I wrote a blog about China's new 'respect' program for girls. The Chinese government is trying to educate young girls about marriage and how they should stay away from sugar daddies. This article laments the fact that, because of the gender inbalance, Chinese women hold the all of the cards in terms of dating and marriage. And Chinese women are not looking for just any average Joe, they want the whole package. Well, at least the whole financial package; they want the money and instant status improvement without the hassle of work. Many women are unapologetic about their obvious intentions, much to the dismay of China's large bachelor population, who have parents nagging at them about their single status. Guess the Chinese should have thought twice beofre giving up their girls. Oh well.
