To get the most out of this post, you MUST watch the videos.
Very interesting thank you for posting.
QRD? What are some of the parallels? Something Red, Something dead?
Your blog had nothing to do with the videos, why are you
Sending people to your blog to view them?
That’s pretty scummy, dude.
Seems to me that weddings (used to be!) religious and cultural ceremonies FROM the local religion and culture (family most important in that group) ONTO the new family (for children, future money, etc.)
But in today’s millennium global-centric/Western-hating/Christian-hating/America-bashing youth, maybe they’ve been taught the “me, myself, and mine” culture of anything non-Christian/non-Jewish is always better.
Bet you will find no Muslims doing this. Their kids are raped, beaten, and enslaved into their common culture.
Spare me, I am not a fan of China and this wedding page won’t change that
This poster is a Chinese propagandist, that’s why. Trying to get people on FR to think China is A-OK. But it ain’t.
is the poster a man? Just curious.
Who knows? He is always posting superficial clap trap about how great a culture China is, how wonderful things are there, it is utter horse manure.
you could be right. every time he posts it’s about how fun and delightful and amazing freaking China is. Not the actual truth which is that China thinks it is better than everybody, has no problem ripping people off, enslaving its own population, killing people and aborting babies and wants to take over militarily
ok thanks
I like MetallicMan and have been following him for about a year.
This guy is a genius, knows tons about China, and he is a deep enemy of feminism and liberalism in general:
That is pretty rare for an ex-pat.
Thanks for posting, keep it up.
Besides, any guy that can write (only) a 5 part series on “Discovering China by Watching Pretty Girls” is worth listening to.
I can just imagine the chaos at the Filene's Basement wedding gown clearance with all the crazies fighting over not one dress, but four or more.
BTW, in China right now, they're having cat-fights over Starbucks cat's paw coffee mugs.
Chinese Wedding Recommendation # 206
Build a Great Wall make the Bride’s (Groom’s) family stay on the other side of it!
One point I can identify with is how drinking liquor is considered a skill, a valuable skill to many Chinese.
Think of it as “handling your liquor”, and how well you can “handle your liquor”. Most Chinese I know, by practice, talent or otherwise, can drink considerably more hard liquor than anyone else I know, and not manifest many attributes of being out right drunk. They certainly, all of them, can “drink me under the table”.
One of my good friends likes to play poker and drink - hard liquor. I think she knows that after any number of drinks, her game is as good as it was at the start, while those of us playing with her may not be playing as good as we might have with fewer drinks under our belt. I’m glad she agrees to play for small change.
A few years ago, I spent nearly a month in the small city of Panjin, in the far north of China, near Shenyang. At first, I was staying in a local hotel near the city center. Starting on a Thursday night, and going through the weekend, I kept hearing loud fireworks going off, in the MIDDLE OF THE FREAKING NIGHT!
When I looked out of the window, I would see pickup truck, or cars driving with a trail of loud firecrackers behind them. This was around 4 am, just an hour or so before dawn.
I asked our local agents what was going on and he described that this was part of their local wedding ceremony. AFTER the wedding, the bride goes back to her parents house. The groom has to go pick her up during the night, and bring her back to his house before dawn.... but, they cannot consecrate the marriage (ie, for those of you in Rio Linda, HAVE SEX) until dawn. As the groom is driving her, he sets off firecrackers to let everyone know how excited he is, and how GREAT the sex is going to be. So, of course... he wants them to be loud and long.
Apparently, the city center is the place where you want to do this, so the MOST PEOPLE POSSIBLE can know. I said, “hmm... fine.. PLease move my hotel away from here”.
It was quite a tradition. They also have a very thriving business or renting Mercedes cars to drive the bride around during the wedding day. Also, big parties in several of the hotels where I was staying.
How about a simple small ceremony with no fuss. Save all that $$$$$$ for the marriage rather than wasting it on a few hours of wedding hoopla.
Chinese Wedding Suggestion # 313
Tie Groom’s (bride’s) family to chairs. Suspend buckets full of water with a small hole in the bottom over their heads. Wait!
