HKH recently came across a book by Rachel Wright, who spent years living in Hong Kong and now lives in Beijing. A lot of the book revolves around dating in Hong Kong and how it is, as one of her friends says, “difficult”.

There is not a lot new in the book for anyone who’s been in Hong Kong for than a year, and in fact some of the stuff will seem downright depressing when you are reminded of it. Things like:

“Dating expats

Either I have very unfortunate girlfriends or they are representative. T speaks for many when she describes the expat dating scene as ‘in a word: difficult’. Like other women friends of mine, T was asked out by married expat men or men with no intention except having a good time. One-night stands are common and a casual relationship is virtually the norm. Compared with Asian women, Western women have a reputation as being difficult to please and uninterested in home-making and child-rearing. Financially independent single women here are acutely aware of the fact that they are competing for partners with younger, attractive Asian women who, for many men who plan to stay in Asia, are the ideal route into the culture.

Comments from expat men published in the South China Morning Post reflect a stereotypical view of Asian women:

‘I just love their boutique size. My Chinese girlfriend makes me feel ten feet tall’;
‘They are skinny and cute’; and
‘They know the rules of love affairs – which is to follow wherever your man goes’.

Another said:

Maybe all Western men look the same to them. Or maybe they just don’t care. Because, let’s face it, an ugly guy like me would never get such a beautiful girlfriend back in the USA.

Many expat women are not interested in dating Chinese men, either because they don’t find them physically attractive or because of cultural differences.

Once you’ve cut out the local men, the gay men, the married men and the men only interested in Asian women, you’ve pared down the field quite a bit. M, 46, has been in Hong Kong for the past ten years. According to her, it’s a numbers game. She says:

A couple of my friends have asked me how I expect to meet a man in Hong Kong. My answer was that I didn’t come to Hong Kong to meet a man – I came to experience Hong Kong and develop aspects of my life … But one of the greatest things about Hong Kong is there are lots of intelligent and interesting men. … I’ve dated lots of men during my time in Hong Kong for varying periods. In one year, I think, the youngest was 32 and the oldest was 61.

In spite of the apparent difficulties, several good expat women friends of mine met and married expat men here.”

But, you can check out this link, which has a few more excerpts, some of which actually include a few positive tidbits.

New Date Site Alert!: Zhenai.com

Recently HKH spent a night at East, a swanky new hotel in Taikoo (who knew?) to do a review of the place that The Girl is writing for a big old fashioned print newspaper (yes, they still exist). Over a nice (but not great) breakfast, I stumbled upon an article in the South China Morning Post about a new online dating site called Zhenai.com.

I won’t be reviewing right this moment because, well, it’s in Chinese and I can still barely ask where the bathroom in Mandarin, much less read anything. But, Google translate will come to the rescue, I’ll sign up and give you a full report soon. In the meantime, here’s what the story had to say in part (via Divaasia) :

“HONG KONG – It is definitely not perfect, but the world’s largest matchmaking website for the Chinese believes mathematical calculation is a good guide to pairing off couples.

For the rising number of single women in China who are well past their marriageable age but still looking for an ideal spouse, the Beijing-based www.zhenai.com is a beacon of hope with its brand of ‘scientific matching’.

Using the mathematical knowledge he learnt at Cornell University, chief executive Li Song has come up with the perfect dress code for charming one’s potential mate – from hairstyles to the shade of one’s tights, the South China Morning Post said in a report yesterday.

And all this is retrievable from a database which the multimillionaire has painstakingly built up, the paper added.

Holding a doctorate in finance from Cornell, Dr Li worked as an investment banker in New York and then Hong Kong before returning to mainland China to apply quantitative finance to love.

He bought a free-dating site in 1998 and subsequently transformed it into an integrated Internet and call centre matchmaking service.

Zhenai.com, which means ‘cherished love’, is now the largest matchmaking site for the Chinese in the world, boasting 400 call centre matchmakers, 23 million registered members and a daily sign-up rate of 30,000.

Explaining why he goes for ‘mathematical matchmaking’, Dr Li said: ‘Because my background is more mathematically inclined, and I don’t have a (psychological) theory to begin with.’ He added: ‘What I do is based on statistical results, reverse engineering, and make it a learning process.’

He said: ‘It’s an iterative process, so you try to match people and then you study the profiles of the people who have dated successfully and put this back into your database.’

Dr Li believes there is much room for his company to grow as it fills ‘the need for a convenient, online version of a traditional matchmaking agency’ at a time when ‘everyone devotes most of their time to their jobs’ and has little time for spouse-hunting.

Besides, his female clientele is fast expanding as more ‘triple high’ women – those with high education, a high salary and a high job position – are being left high and dry as their male peers prefer lower earners.

It does not help that many of these women – meanly called ‘Great Sage that Rivals Heaven’ in China, a name referring to the Monkey King of Chinese legend as ‘sage’ sounds the same in Mandarin as ‘leftover’ – have high expectations of their Mr Right.

There are roughly half a million single women aged between 25 and 50 living in Beijing, with the number reaching a million in Shanghai, the newspaper reported yesterday.

Ironically, data also shows that there will be 30 million to 40 million more men of marriageable age than women by 2020, with one in every five men expected to have difficulty finding a wife.

The All-China Women’s Federation released a survey last year showing that about 41 per cent of single women in China were worried they might not be able to find the right person to marry.

Only 8.1 per cent of single men felt the same way.

That probably explains why a higher proportion of women than men are paying Dr Li’s website to meet up with their matched partners, although they are outnumbered by three to two in his database.

This article was first published in The Straits Times.”

I will reserve judgment for now, but one bit of wisdom that Dr. Li imparts is that women have a much higher chance of getting a second date if they wear a skirt that ends above the knee. Yeah, I did not need an algorithm to figure that one out math boy.

Okey, they are not all hot, but a recent entry from The Dark Side blog has introduced HKH to a great new way to waste time: From the Darkside:

““Mid women,” “leftover women” and even the charming “failed dogs” are the new terms to describe the single ultra-demanding +30 year old ladies of our time. With a new TVB documentary about this phenomenon, it’s become obvious this is a serious problem we need to address. And look, China leads by example.”

Enjoy, but I will not be responsible for how much time you waste with this new toy!

"You are my Density"

Dating Advice, Online Dating Review No Responses »

Feb 282010

Being known among friends and associates as an expert in online dating, having used it personally and professionally for, well, a looong time, I am often sent links to new online dating sites and stories. Usually I am already aware of the site in question, but I was recently clued in to something called “Kou Destiny”. Okay I’ll bite, let’s check it out together shall we?

Part of Kou Destiny’s mission statement is to “create the perfect environment, the right ambience and special moments for you to meet your true soul mate or life partner, and surely have a fabulous time! As a Member, you’ll meet fun and interesting people with a big heart and a lot of integrity.” It is apparently run by someone who I’m told is a “socialite”. Well, la di friggin da!

Now, if there’s one thing I know, it’s that socialites are great at connecting with people on a deep and meaningful level, so this sounds like a great idea! Let’s see how one begins to take advantage of such a great opportunity. First, you have to become a member. Sure, what do I have to do? Just fill out the application form and pay the Membership fee which is “only HK $9,988.00 instead of $17,000” (goes to bathroom, cleans contact lenses, returns, sees same numbers still there, starts to become slightly nauseas). Well, maybe it’s worth it depending on what I get? Luckily for us, there are numerous links to various membership benefits pages. All say “coming soon”. Doh! So, uh, I am supposed to pay upwards of ten grand for undefined benefits? I mean, it’s 10,000 HKD, not USD, but still, not sure I am buying that. However, then I see that you will definitely receive the perk of attending a launch party at the Opera Gallery. And you will be required to wear a lace mask. I don’t know about you, but my rate of success in finding romantic partners when wearing lace or looking at all like Zorro has been disappointing to say the least. And if you are the kind of person who thinks spending 10-20 grand to go to a cocktail party in Central is normal, I promise you that you have already met all of the other attendees at Zuma, the races in Happy Valley and other similar venues in Hong Kong.

After traveling further into the site (it’s a shot trip) I am becoming certain that, while this is a legitimate service, it is also off the charts on the Delusional Rich People Who Think Hobbies Are Jobs Scale. Look, there is something to be said for having a sort of screening process to separate people who are serious about finding love from some of the cheap freaks you find on free online dating sites. There is a range of numbers that seems like a reasonable amount of money that one should pay to find a real connection online. $17,000 is not within that range. Order an escort, I promise you that they will be no less interested in your bank account than anyone you meet on Kou Destiny.

But wait, perhaps I am being too harsh. Let’s take a look at some press the site got from a magazine I have never heard of called Gafencu (misspelled on the Kou Destiny site, so I guess none of those membership fees is going toward hiring a competent proofreader). In an interview, the founder makes it very clear that “The whole idea of this dating concept is that it’s not about how big your bank account is or how much you earn per annum. Instead, it’s all about how you fit the Kou Mantra.” Ignoring the question of WTF the Kou Mantra is, I am going to have to go ahead and call bullshit on this because here are the qualities that she says you need to have: “ready to love, a big big heart, passion for life, sense of humour, positive spirit, wild wild imagination, a bag of laughs, and honour and integrity. If you pass on all of them, good news—you’re in.” I have only been in Hong Kong for a year and I know one thing: none of that is remotely true for people like this. Here are the qualities Hong Kongers look for: how big your bank account is, do you own or rent, how big your bank account is, where did you go to university, how big your bank account is, how many clubs do you belong to, how big your bank account is, who are your parents.

Look, if you are willing to spend thousands of dollars and think you are funny, passionate, positive and honourable, and still can’t find someone to go on a few dates with, I think you need to be giving your money to a personal trainer, plastic surgeon or therapist and not an online dating site.

Stalky texts and calls: Bad no matter where you are.

HKH recently stumbled across an interesting article on the Global Post site. In a nutshell:

“Many Indian men grow up having very little contact with women outside their family, cross-cultural and management consultant Rajeshwar Balasundaram wrote in an email. Men sit separately from women on public transportation and at schools and do not develop platonic friendships. When they meet foreign women, they rely on the stereotypes they have acquired through Hollywood and Bollywood movies of foreign women as free and loose. These men think they can communicate freely with these foreign women, but sometimes they get carried away.”

“Indrajit Chattopadhyay says he flirts with women by sending them five to 10 text messages a day. If she does not respond to the initial messages, he continues sending them.”

Uh, dude. Too much. But let’s face it, most people have at some point made one too many calls or sent one too many emails to the target of their affections. And let’s be even more honest, because at the time you did it, you KNEW you shouldn’t be drunk dialing at 2:00 a.m. to mention what great time you had the previous night. This urge to overpursue and confirm the other person’s interest level is amazingly hard for some people to resist. Woman are often accused of being the main culprits, but as the article shows, it can go both ways. I mean, you saw Swingers right? Yikes.

Even very intelligent and generally secure people can fall prey to this potentially relationship killing practice. Some years ago, I had a very close friend who was dating a cool guy and things has been going well for 3 or 4 months. Then, one day, she called me and asked if I had heard from him since he and I had become friends independently of her. o she did not actually love by the way, but that is a story for another post.

Apparently, he had not spoken to her for a day and she had left him voicemails. “How many?” I asked. “Five” she replied. Oh God. As she gave me more details, it became clear that he had specifically mentioned that he was going to be unusually busy with work meetings and international calls for a couple days. So, I had to break it to her that while he had almost certainly been too busy to get back to her after her first three calls, it was equally certain that by her fifth call he simply didn’t want to talk to her, probably for at least another day now. Not because he wanted to break up with her, but because FIVE CALLS IN A DAY IS TOO MANY! Especially when your partner tells you up front that he/she is going to be out of touch and busy with work.

So, when you get that urge to call/text and you think that maybe you shouldn’t, you definitely shouldn’t. You might be worried that maybe your BF/GF is avoiding you and that calling to talk about it and see how they are will help your relationship. I promise you, the fifth call or text will do the exact opposite and end said relationship post haste.

Date Spot Review: Freshness Burger

Restaurant Reviews No Responses »

Feb 162010

Sometimes you just want a quick bite while you are out and about with your boyfriend/girlfriend and you don’t feel like paying a million dollars for an appetizer at Red. You also, like me, may often have a craving for a taste of home and if you’re American this means hamburgers. Unfortunately, many of the reviews I have found are done by people who seem to think that a hamburger should “crumble” in your mouth and that it is acceptable to use lean ground beef to make burgers. These people are also likely to be kind of person that buys Wagyu or Kobe burgers. I’ll let Anthony Bourdain summarize my feelings about these persons:

“Enterprising restaurants are now offering the “Kobe beef burger,” enticingly priced at near or above $100 a pop. And if there’s a better way to prove one’s total ignorance of all three words – Kobe, beef, and burger – this, my friends, is it. It’s the trifecta of dumb-ass. The Kobe experience is principally about the marbling, the even distribution of fat through lean. A hamburger is a bunch of lean beef thrown into a grinder with varying degrees of fat. If you are foolish enough to order a Kobe burger, you are entirely missing the point. Firstly, the fat will melt right out of the thing while cooking. Secondly, you are asking the chef to destroy the very textural notes for which Kobe is valued by smarter people. Thirdly, for an eight-ounce Kobe burger, you are paying for the chef to feed you all the outer fat and scrap bits he trimmed off the outside of his “real” Kobe so he can afford to serve properly trimmed steaks to wiser patrons who know what the hell they’re doing. And fourthly, you’re paying a hundred bucks for a freakin’ hamburger! Get over yourself! You’ve already established you’re too drunk and stupid to enjoy it in the first place.”

I am therefore on a mission to find Hong Kong’s best attempts at making good old American hamburgers and my first stop is Freshness Burger. FB is a Japanese chain that features organic ingredients. Uh oh. I went to the location on Pok Fu Lam Road near HKU. The shop is tiny but has a number of small tables. The staff was very friendly and my “All-American” burger was ready fairly quickly. However, I immediately realized there would be a problem. The burger was not grilled, and right off the bat is a big no no. I know most places fry their burgers, and sometimes they’re pretty good. But you can’t get an A with a fried burger.

The toppings were very fresh, but the tomato and onion sliced were bigger than the burger! I like veggies on my burger, but in this case it was just too much. After removing the offending vegetables, I started in and found the burger to be OK, but here I ran into a problem that seems to be common in Hong Kong. Restaurants seem to add something to their burgers, either in the form of filler, some unidentified spices or both. I know this because when I buy beef at the store and make my own burgers they taste pretty much exactly the same as the ones I make back in the States. Also, lots of places use frozen patties and the freshness burger tasted like it falls into this category. Hong Kong restaurants, I beg you, stop it! What makes burgers good is fat. Pure and simple. So lay off the “healthy” burgers and fresh ingredients. I don’t care. I want a fatty burger made from beef that is nowhere near 80% lean.

They do make a nice cup of coffee tho and have a relatively huge menu and plenty of non-burger selections;)

Overall, it was not a bad burger, but I won’t be going back.

Grade: B-

Good for: casual date

Date Site Review: The Perfect Partner

Online Dating Review No Responses »

Feb 042010

I don’t like posting reviews that are too negative, a) because many sites have cons, but also pros, b) giving bad reviews of online dating sites makes it tough for me convince people that online dating is perhaps the best way to find that special someone. That said, I find little to like about The Perfect Partner. But, that’s not really a problem this time around because TPP is not really an online dating site, but simply a matchmaking site that happens to have a website. Hey, it’s not even a dating site, as they helpfully point out by stating that “We are NOT a dating site- we aim to enable life partnerships.” Well okay then, let’s have at it!

If you recognize TPP at all, it’s probably because you noticed their personal ads in the back section of a few newspapers. That is old school. I thought it was 2010, but I guess they forgot to update their calendars (or go outside) after 1985. Anyhoo, what does TPP do you ask? Good question.

TPP will start you on “Your journey to finding a quality international potential life partner begins by completing our questionnaire. Complete honesty is essential when filling in your questionnaire and will ultimately help Wendy fulfil your requirements.

Your full telephone number, including country code and city code, are required with preference for mobile phone numbers as Wendy will often text message or email before making a call to your mobile phone. Scheduling is usually carried out via email due to global time zones. Please take time out to check your email address is correct on the questionnaire.

Once completed, a private consultation will be scheduled with Wendy. Consequently, you should receive contact from Wendy personally within a seven day time span. If you do not, your questionnaire has not been received.

No financial obligations are associated with your private consultation. Wendy will establish an understanding of your needs, lifestyle choices and preferences. Additionally and importantly, Wendy feels this meeting enhances confidence between the two of you. A timescale of at least ninety minutes is requested for this meeting. All topics will be discussed in English and will be held in the strictest of confidence.

Wendy is available to her clientele seven days a week. She can be reached on her cell phones and email worldwide to listen, answer questions, or to assist you in making a decision about your life partner choice.

If your desire is to speed up this process, call one of our offices and ask to be put through to Wendy. On Weekends Wendy answers the phones herself, dependant on current time zone. You can also email Wendy directly.

The Perfect Partner requires a one time registration fee for suitably qualified international women, payable in her local currency (500 USD/CHF, 300 Euro/GBP). Suitable qualified men retain Wendy as a consultant and the prices of these contracts and length of time will be discussed during your in person meeting.

A completed questionnaire, multiple recent lifestyle photographs and a CV/Resume are required prior to a private consultation being scheduled. Should a professional photo-shoot be required, this will also need to be discussed before the consultation. A success fee is requested upon her cohabitation or marriage which will be discussed during the private consultation.

Escorts or persons in a similar industry are not accepted. The Perfect Partner does not offer dating services, nor does it make use of professional daters. We do not have relationships with modelling or casting agencies for the purpose of recruitment. Married men in search of companions of any kind or fortune hunters will not be entertained. The Perfect Partner prefers quality over quantity.”

Whew. $500 to sign up…for the women? That’s US Dollars by the way. I shudder to think what the men pay for a, get this, 12-24 month contract. Should you need two years to find a partner for the men TPP claims are so handsome, educated and well-off? That’s a rhetorical question.

Also, if you need to dedicate a paragraph to pointing out that you really don’t want escorts or fortune hunters signing up, well, I think you have a fundamental problem with your business model, to say the least.

But, why would fortune hunters be lured to TPP? Well, take a look at the profiles of their female clients and their male clients. We’ll wait for you to come back (begins twiddling thumbs).

http://www.tpp-worldwide.com/women.php

http://www.tpp-worldwide.com/men.php

Notice anything? Besides the fact that the guy in that picture could only possibly be one of the four men profiled. And let’s face it, not representative of I would guess, say, 95% of their clients?

And then, there’s this:

“I met **** a couple years ago and had a few of my friends join her firm. All of the introductions she arranged were so completely and utterly WRONG! She will take on any client for the MONEY. That is HER GOAL.”

And that was the nice part of a lengthier complaint. Although I believe that match making services can work, this mini-rant is indicative of the most common complaint. Ultimately, such services can only have a limited number of people available. So what happens when they can’t find a match for a client? Do they give them their money back and apologize for not being able to find the right “life partner” for them? Uh, not usually. What generally happens is that they send clients on as many dates as possible and pray that something sticks and hope that the guy that wants a tall, blonde, financier, fails to notice that he is only meeting short, brunettes with jobs in administration.

Ultimately, I can’t really give a grade to TPP, because it’s not an online dating site per se, but I’ll just say that it makes me think a little bit better of E-Harmony. I feel dirty even saying that.

Date Spot Review: Maya City Club Hotel (Spa / Sauna), Shenzhen

Restaurant Reviews, Spa Reviews No Responses »

Feb 022010

The Girl and I went to Shenzhen to kill a night and relax and stayed at the Shangr-La. Highly recommended, but that will be another post. This post is dedicated to the spa we tried called The Maya City Club Hotel. For a more proper review go to http://notesfromtheroad.typepad.com/the_rubdown/2010/01/review-maya-city-club-hotel-spa-shenzhen.html because this is going to be more of a rambling affair. I know, what’s new?

First of all, the place looks like a Mayan Temple. Or at least what some Chinese designer who had never seen anything remotely South American thought a Mayan temple might look like. Upon entering, we were approached by a woman with a clipboard who wanted to know what we wanted. That’s what we assumed, since she spoke no English. This would become a theme. No one. No ONE there speaks one word of English, except…”Obama!” I would hear that often.

Once we figured out where to go, I entered the men’s locker room. You know that scene in “Animal House” where all the white kids walk into to an all black bar? Yeah. After the initial shock, it was like a petting zoo, with little attendants walking up to me, staring, patting me on the back and saying “Meiguo? Obama?”. Okay, they were more than friendly, but having 6 or 7 dudes just standing around and staring at you while you undress is freaky to say the least. Guys, back the &*%$ up! Needless to say, I won’t be talking about what were surely some nice amenities in the locker room because I got in and out as fast as I could!

I made my way through the shower/pool area for men, and somehow managed to communicate to one of the attendants that I was looking for my girlfriend…in CHINESE! I am awesome. I managed to find her and we found our way to the standard massage area which, by the way, is not much cheaper than the VIP area, so shell out the extra cash. Now, I don’t know much about massage, except that you do NOT get Thai, unless you are flexible and used to getting massages often. I am neither. However, with no Swedish available, I thought the basic Chinese massage sounded good and less fruity than the aromatherapy treatment The Girl was getting. I can think of only a handful of bigger mistakes that I have made in my life.

Our two Masseuses (“M” from here on) came in and proceeded to speak to us in Chinese. I realized that I am not in fact awesome because The Girl was speaking with them somewhat successfully. Me, not so much. And then, it began. My tiny M began working on my shoulders and I began to worry. Okay, maybe she’s just getting me warmed up then will back off and go with the kind of massage that puts me to sleep. I knew this was not realistic. 30 minutes later, she starts in on my lymph nodes and the teeth clenching began. My inner voice cursing me in between repeating “Ow. OW! OMFG, stop it!” It was around this time that I heard the sound of massage oil on bare skin from the table next to me. I said to the girl “I think I chose poorly”.

The Girl: “Really? It hurts?”

Me: “urgh!. yeah”

Her: “Mine is massaging my butt with warm oil.”

Me (inner voice): “I hate you so very, very much.”

I got a brief respite as my M moved to my lower back, but then I realized she wasn’t stopping there long. Oh God, she was going for my legs. Now, I have a persistent knot that comes and goes right under my left shoulder blade. People easily find it, make a knowing sound, and after a bit of pain, it generally gets worked out. That knot has two much bigger, much more persistent siblings and they live in my calves. I’ve jumped out of a plane with no fear whatsoever, but now? I needed my mommy. Soon, I was gripping the side of the table, biting my tongue and making sounds in my head similar to those of a 12 year old girl with front row tickets to a Jonas Brothers or Rain show, except mine were higher pitched.

Then she started twisting my legs. Um, are my bones SUPPOSED to make noises like that? I think not. Then, on to my arms, which was practically paradise compared to the rest. I could only count my blessings and thank some greater power that we got the 90 minute treatment instead of the 250 minute option. I mean, just the that thought I could have chosen that almost made me cry. On the other hand, I was somewhat relieved, since, this being my first massage from a cute Asian woman, I was worried that I might have an…um…embarrassing reaction. At no point during this ordeal was that even a remote possibility.

When it ended, there was at least a bright spot. We sauntered up to the restaurant, which had an extensive menu, including an awful lot of American food for a place that doesn’t seem to have ever had an American walk in. Well, at least not one that looks like me. USDA short ribs? Yes please. Jack Daniels? Yes, oh God yes!

And with that, all was almost right with the world.

Now, I know I am a wuss and I am also sure that anyone who has more experience would say that my girl did exactly what she was supposed to do, and possibly very well. But, I will simply say that if you opt to spend a day at Maya City learn the Chinese for “I am a girly man, please don’t hurt me.”

I don’t want t give Maya too much of a hard time, because it was in fact quite an interesting experience, but I don’t have much to compare it to other than Sunny Paradise (which I am bit foggy about as to my last trip there) and Queen’s Spa, which everyone says is the gold standard. That said:
