Smile!
Probably one of my favorite things about Chinese women is their love of all things happy.
When I was in college, I would often watch crazy foreign shows on the International Channel. I especially looked forward to the Chinese shows, although not for the reason you might expect. No, it wasn’t the invariably beautiful actresses or the dramatic plotlines I could never hope to understand– no, my friends, it was the commercials. Those comedically happy, colorful, and sappy commercials were full of pretty flowers and little girls smiling so wide you thought the top of their head was going to fall off. And those were just the commercials for phone cards!
As an example, here’s a pretty typical Chinese commercial, this one in particular for McD’s:
In stark contrast: Here in the US, one McDonald’s commercial features porn star Ron Jeremy.
The innocence of the Chinese is something it’s taken me years to understand. They’ll deny their innocent ways when confronted about it directly, but it’s etched deeply into their brains and a part of their culture.
So what does this mean when it comes to picking up Chinese women? Simple: Smile! Smile like you’ve just traveled back in time to get in on Google’s IPO. Smile a big, goofy grin and the switch in their brains will immediately identify you as one of their own. Once you have this down, you will have opened a new door into success with Chinese women. Now go out and practice what you’ve learned!
Until next time, my friends…
