Dating Korean Women Rules Culture

Dating in Koreans is a big major today. Different cultures make it diffucult. Like other Asian Cultures, Korean cultures are more traditional and conventional.

Koreans get their ideas of what Americans are like from our films, so some of them are sold on the idea that all Americans are promiscuous. This may be one reason that some Korean men are opposed to Korean women dating western men, but think that they might like to date a western woman. The double standard is alive and well in Korea. If you're a western woman and you want to date Korean men, watch out for signs of this attitude.

Korean Women do not like to show their affection in public. I have hardly ever seen couples holding hands, kissing, and hugging in public spaces. However, I hear that contemporary trends have changed. Because my parents are old-fashioned, they do not like to show affection in public.

In general, Korean women are submissive. They are taught that women should act in a delicate manner. When they smile, for instance, they tend to close their mouth with their hands. I am not sure if it is because they have bad teeth.

When it comes down to physical appearance, I do not think that all Korean women are attractive. I have seen ugly, beautiful and other women with a wide range of physical traits. I have seen a lot of fat, thin Korean women that are married to somewhat attractive Korean men. I think that their relationship is based more than on just physical attraction... And to be honest, I have not questioned what bonds them together, because it is not my business.

The good news is that this attitude is changing fast. Koreans used to be very matter-of-fact about marital sex and rather prudish about premarital sex. That's not so true any more -- Korea is experiencing something not entirely unlike the US sexual revolution of the late 1960s. In 2001, the Chollian Internet Service asked its users what they thought of living together before marriage. A sample comprising Internet users is probably not (yet) representative of the general population. Still, the vast majority -- 85% of men, and 90% of women -- said they thought that premarital cohabitation was a good idea.

Other surveys report that over 10 percent of high school students have had sex. This may seem low compared to the US and most European nations, but it's high for Korea. Maybe because of this, the Korean goverment has recently undertaken an expanded sex education program in the hopes of increasing contraceptive use among young people.

Lastly, yes, Korean men and women hold their national pride. Koreans are proud of their heritage, because there are many aspects of the culture they are proud of. Focus on education, hard-work, Korean food, beautiful geography, topography and comraderie are some aspects that makes me very proud of my heritage
