Q: Leasing a girlfriend to show your parents?

Lots more girls than boys
pressure from parents

Do Chinese men ever lease girlfriends (pay her) to show parents they got a gf?

I've never heard of that but have heard many stories of the opposite (as girls get WAY more pressure to marry than men do)

There is no such thing called inheritance for me, I won't take any money from my family.

Well, if I don't have choice, and my family understands that no good Chinese man will marry me, they will accept u.

We have to go to Inner Mongolia. We might have to go to Qingdao as well. There will be a lot relatives who want to check u out.

The difference is Inner Mongolia is a province in China. Outer Mongolia(we really call it like this at home) is Mongolia, is another country.

Njord, can u just stop putting thrum down on all my answers?
U said u love me, why don't u offer to come home with me, scared? Thought u r a man……

My family came from north west of Mongolia.
Do your family still live in tents and move every time the ''toilet'' gets full ?

Don't know if the question was meant to shock and stir a random debate, but 'lover leasing' actually does exist. Some young(ish) Chinese do it around Spring Festival time to reassure their parents they've got someone.

Here's a two part article about it.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change student visa to labourer one is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
