Not your toastmaster type
BoxofBeans is an Asian American currently living in Hong Kong.
She just wrote a post depicting how tactless Asians can be during conversations.
Go over there and read it.
Now, don’t you agree that’s just a bit too much information to share? With a stranger? And a MALE stranger at that…?
Next he’s going to want to diagnose all of BoxofBean’s “issues” when really, he’s just eager to show the world his own problems.
At least the sandwiches and drinks were superb.

I couldn’t stand those type of people. I meet them E V E R Y D A Y here.
“Married? When? So no child yet? Your fault or your husband’s?”
“What? No kids? What’s wrong? You on control?”
“When? No plans yet? It’s about time, don’t you think?”
I am so happy that my husband doesn’t speak Chinese. He would be terribly upset if he knows what strangers are asking me all the time.
Well, if they give me free porkchop sandwich everytime they ask me those upsetting questions, I’ll be fine …

LOL! Totally innappropriate, but poor guy…he’s probably feeling self conscious about his “abilities” and decided to consult a total stranger instead of a medical professional……now if he thought she was single..that would have been extra bizarre..

Yes Chinese people are tactless! My husband has not been getting used to how “rude” people seem to be in Hong Kong, but that’s just how they communicate.
Betty’s last blog post..Huh?

That’s why when you go in to a Chinese store or restaurant for take-outs, NO eye contact. LOL! Otherwise, you will end up getting these kinda weird conversations.
