I wa...I just wanted to tell you, I love this post.<br /><br />I want to frame it in my bedroom as a reminder of the white privilege I am in being adopted, but then I'd feel funny about it.<br /><br />Thank you so much for writing this.Mei Linghttp://adoptionparadox.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1695345272433215686.post-46334785608261979172011-02-07T12:34:30.269-05:002011-02-07T12:34:30.269-05:00Embarrassingly, I myself (as a Taiwanese American)...Embarrassingly, I myself (as a Taiwanese American) was shocked when my Chinese friend told me his long distance girlfriend didn't want to move to the US from China to be with him. "But why wouldn't she want to come here for a better life?" I thought. <br /><br />He explained that China is doing better economically and she has a good life there. I'm so used to the stories of Chinese women trying to marry US citizens in order to come here, at first I thought that was why she was dating him.<br /><br />They have since broken up, but I have learned my lesson.Anhttp://burdenofthought.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1695345272433215686.post-4000661926594612712011-02-06T17:23:11.262-05:002011-02-06T17:23:11.262-05:00"When you think of Chinese culture, you think..."When you think of Chinese culture, you think of poor people, don't you?"<br /><br />Yes.
