I did once see a French dude, with white hair making out with a damn fine, tall, long legged beauty in the subway. I also saw an old black dude with Don King hair with a very good looking, tall, light skinned girl.
Of course the cynical here will just say they were ho's, so what does it matter in the end?
Thanks for the reply, The_Adventurer. Hoes or not, at least those guys got what they were looking for, if only for one night - or is that one hour?
As to not seeing even one foreigner with a "dark homely peasant girl" - maybe not dark, homely and an actual peasant

but there's plenty of evidence to suggest that many westerners punch way below their weight in China. For example, yick recently stated this in another thread:

I've personally witnessed many above average-looking foreigners (especially white Anglos) with local girls who are decidedly meh in Asia, and that definitely includes China. In fact, I see it so often that whenever I see a foreigner out in public, I pretty much expect that the girl with him will be nothing to write home about. And when I do see her face, 9 times out of 10 that's the case. (The remaining one time it's an HA poster's girlfriend, obviously

)
