Q: Vanity and Chinese women - does your girlfriend strut proudly when outside with you?

Arguably every girl has a sense of vanity and pride when it comes time to showing off her boyfriend/husband. That seems to be magnified a hundred fold here.

 

I feel so used. A piece of white meat. Sad

Yes and no.  I find my gf especially wants to show me off much more after I have gotten her a new dress..or hair extensions....or an iphone....etc.

Having a foreign bf isn't enough...it's showing off to people what he has bought her too.

Vanity is part of the culture I think.

She hates it. She can't stand all the people talking and staring, even incidental comments like "hey there's a foreigner". It took me years of pointing out to her that that's what I deal with 24/7 for her to agree to go to Canada. :/

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 from student to labourer visa 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
