Don't tell me you didn't consider this happening before. Do you think a lot of white guys are just 'interested in Korean culture' as they like to say? Really?

Half of the guys I know who went to Korea were horrific perverts who were probably in Korea to escape charges for sex crimes back home. There was a particularly repulsive pick-up artist from Montreal I knew who liked to brag about how many Korean girls' virginities he'd taken, but that's neither here nor there... The other half were fairly normal guys who hated the whole experience because of the previously mentioned perverts who soured it for them and made them all look bad.

These places ought to have background checks, I swear to god...

Ugh. This x1000.

I went to Japan a couple of years ago on an exchange student program, and about half the Western guys in my class were only there to pick up Japanese women. We went to Hiroshima, Osaka Castle, Tokyo Disney and all sorts of other tourist locations during our stay in Japan, yet instead of seeing the sights and learning about the culture/history of Japan, the guys spent the entire time chatting up Japanese girls and having sex with them, then bragging about how many girls they tricked into thinking they were special then ditching them after sex because the girls either couldn't understand English or didn't know their real names. Some of the guys even bragged about having unprotected sex with virgins, then joked that the girls would have to bring up babies on their own if they got pregnant. I hope that's not true, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is. So gross tbh.

Holy fuck those guys sound like dickbags and remind me uncomfortably of some of the guys I knew while on exchange. So many goddamn white guys there to pick up Japanese girls. But I also heard the other side of it - Japanese girls who exclusively dated foreign guys so they could a) practice their English and b) have a casual relationship that was sure to be over within a year. I don't think Japanese girls are that naive; there's a lot of mutual use going on.

My spirits were lifted also but one really decent guy I knew who was in a long-term committed relationship with his Japanese girlfriend - they'd met in America, done the long-distance thing, and he went to Japan and studied Japanese for her. Totally sweet guy.

That sounds a lot different from what those guys were doing, though. I mean, if they were lying to the guys and saying "I looove you I'll go back to your country with you and we can get married and live in a cute suburban house and have three kids and a dog and get old together! <3" but were secretly planning to dump the guy before he went home, that's pretty cruel. But casually dating to practice their English isn't that bad and can easily go both ways (the guy is probably practicing his Japanese, too, either with her or with whatever Japanese friends he makes there) and having a short relationship, provided both parties understand it's intended to be just that, is totally different from "trying to trick girls into thinking they're special and planning to dump them if they get pregnant."

Honestly I think Japan had the right idea in the 1600s when they boiled foreign interlopers alive...

D: That's disgusting.
