Here are the “14 differences between Japanese and Chinese women” as they appeared online this week. We strongly urge you to take this with not so much a pinch of salt as a whole cup of the stuff.
1. In Japan, mothers teach their kids to always stand up for what is right and to put a stop to wrongdoing no matter what. Chinese mothers urge their children to run away from evil as wrongdoers will be punished in the afterlife.
2. Japanese women think that Japan is the greatest country in the world. Chinese women, on the other hand, often feel that other countries do things better, suffering from “the grass is always greener” syndrome.
3. Although Chinese women who marry Westerners take enormous pride in doing so, for women in Japan, marrying a foreigner is almost an embarrassment.
4. Japanese women are ladies in public but turn into whores between the sheets. Chinese women, meanwhile, are vulgar when outdoors but act likes ladies in the bedroom.
5. Japanese women prize fidelity over all, focusing on helping their husbands and raising their kids, but China is known for its shockingly high number of extramarital affairs.
6. Japanese women value filial piety, and women treat their husband’s mother as if they were their own. Chinese women just wish their mother-in-law would die and be out of the way.
7. Japanese wives support their husbands with all their might, praising them for their hard work when they come home late from work. Chinese women scold their husbands when they arrive home, demanding to know “Where the hell have you been!?” when he’s late.
8. Young Japanese women tend to marry men around their own age, working to build a life together. Young Chinese women actively seek out a rich older man, not caring about issues like the number of lovers they have previously taken.
9. Japanese mothers teach their daughters to obey their husbands when they marry, and to show respect for their mother-in-law. Chinese mothers urge their daughters to get control of their husband’s finances as soon as they can after tying the knot.
10. Japanese women can deal with the fact that a man might not have much money, but they have no time for cowards. Chinese women can accept a coward, but have no time for men without money.
11. Japanese women find brave men utterly charming, but Chinese women are concerned that such men would be troublesome and bossy in marriage.
12. Japanese women are able to tolerate a husband’s infidelity. Chinese women are able to tolerate their own.
13. Japanese women do not openly speak ill of their men in the media or when in public. Chinese women openly berate their men in the media.
14. On their wedding night, Japanese women will say, “I’m sorry if I don’t do it right.” Chinese women, on the other hand, say “Come on, let’s see how much money we got from our wedding guests!”
