ooo.. u mean that... but the thing is, not all eng ed are open-minded and not all chinese ed are conservative... it's just a general asumption...but how do u define open minded and conservative? i think it's all very individual
Everyone is unique, yes, but people can be grouped together by their common elements and behaviours. You can apply this to chinese/english educated people. Culture and language plays a huge role in a person's upbringing and in shaping the way they think. For instance, gender roles/social etiquette/rules/etc. are very strict and rigid in chinese culture. They're taught to respect and listen to authority, often to the point of complete submission. This is probably why you don't see chinese ed people asking many questions during lectures and such, they think doing so would be challenging authority.
I don't see chinese educated people as being more shy, more introverted, etc. I just see that they think differently, and personally, I dislike the chinese educated mentality. I know quite a few exceptions, but generally, its something I cannot stand.

HOW many topics like these have we had? Sheesh.
oh and I read that someone said they wouldn't date a guy if they see no future ... but not talking about marriage. What the heck are you talking about? A future in a relationship = marriage.
Now you know the kind of vagueness and contradictions guys have to put up with oh and I read that someone said they wouldn't date a guy if they see no future ... but not talking about marriage. What the heck are you talking about? A future in a relationship = marriage.
