Im really pleased to see this posted, notions like Westerner seem really out-dated and anything but politcally correct.

In a strange sense I would prefer to see gwailo/laowai written!

In terms of a Westerner coming from a Western culture, what does that mean? Are urban Tokyoites Westerners? Are people from the rural parts of Eastern Europe Westerners?

Clearly “Western” in terms of describing people or culture do not really hold any real meaning.

If Jay is a TBA or an ABT, what about Americans and Brits with ancestory from Hong Kong or Singapore, what are they? following the same abreviations I am BBYILU..(British Born Yemeni-Israeli Lithuanian-Ukranian)…a bit crazy really…..at the end of the day does it all matter?

Ethnicity? (no such thing anymore..at least not how we think we understand it)
Nationality?
Culture? (what ever that means)

Great topic to bring up guys

7 days no update…..ummm….
i second Jojo….she is right.

As English teachers in china,you don’t really need to have qualification,you just need to LOOK LIKE a white ppl.
(No offense.I believe that those teachers surely can speak fluent English. )

Anyway,even Junde wants to be an English teacher,and he has a competent knowledge of English,he may not get the job when his rival is a White.

So why should we have to define what the “Westerners ” they refer to? We all have the answer already.

You see this in the West, too - vapid people fascinated by Asian cultures because they’re different. Let’s not criticize the Chinese for this, Westerners are just as bad if not worse when it comes to racism.

i always thought “ABC” meant “american-born chinese” in which case jay would not qualify as one. he’s more of a “TBA” (taiwanese-born american). sorry, i know that was totally off the subject but i just felt some clarification was necessary there…

aah, free european wine… wish i could qualify. hey, people have said i have white skin and my nose is pretty big. plus i sound like an american. alas, my single eyelids give it away… come to think of it, jay’s skin is whiter than mine, his nose is big enough, he speaks perfect americanized english, AND has double eyelids. he should get in, no problem. jay, go for it and DARE them to refuse you! then tell me how that wine is… although, i have tried some european wine here and i must say that it wasn’t as good as great wall 1998 which is a pretty decent wine, in my opinion.

sorry, dear jay, i talked too much again…
