OfflineTwo questions from Formspring about his topic.
The first one is interested in the Chinese "general knowledge":
Do girls in China know about the rumor that black guys are "gifted" below the waist?
The other is asking about romantic potential for blacks in China:
If a black guy can speak chinese, is very in tune with chinese culture, and is a bit handsome would and chinese girls consider looking past the fact that he is african-american?
If you combine the two, maybe the Chinese girl would best be advised not to "look past" the African American features. I'd say a handsome culturally sensitive expat who knows the local language would do great in most places in Asia regardless of ethnicity or race and despite possible negative stereotypes.
Right?

Offline"A handsome culturally sensitive expat" with local language skill… would be in the best position to fight the stereotype, the best position to go deep behind the stereotype (i.e. where it really is coming from). S/he may be more exposed to it too (just thinking of it is quite hurtful and my heart goes to those expats who struggle) – but that could be (in a long run) an opportunity to make a relationship and hence understand each other better - since the relationship would never stop evolving (I'm such an optimist, aka sucker :p)
"Gifted" below the waist eh… +1!

OfflineFrom what I have gathered listening to the Chinese people that have spoken about it, black people are not held in very high esteem. Certainly the reputation of American blacks isn't helping their status.
The comment about the wienie , well if that's the best bait they have and any women bites on it, it's her fault. Lousy way to find a husband.
