One guy on the other forum told me that there is a common stereotype in China that russian girls are hookers. It originated in the northern regions bordering Russia where is a plenty of russian women serving rich people. Can you prove it or not?
What is a general perception of people with mixed background who are half russian and half han?
This guy is not sock puppet and he is definitely not ButlerKing.Quote:

I think perceptions are mixed. But generally a Russian who can speak Chinese will be treated warmly.Quote:

I think the key thing is if they can speak Chinese, if Viets and Filipinos can speak Chinese, they can probably assimilate pretty well. Vietnamese especially as they already have a lot of East Asian background. It depends on the region as well. Filipinos can probably assimilate much easier into some Southern provinces phenotypically than they can into some Northern provinces.
Attitudes towards Russians also vary greatly depending on the region. In the South, Russians are utterly foreign and they are rarely seen. In the North, and especially in the Northeast, people are very familiar with Russian culture. There's also a running joke that to Northeasterners, Russia is like a "big brother" because they absorbed many Russian cultural influences during the 50s and the 60s. Also, they love to drink a lot of hard alcohol including vodka and all the traditional Chinese baijiu, so Russians are a very familiar people in that region. Many men also see Russian women as very attractive catches.
In the Northeast, there are some stereotypes about Russian women working as prostitutes but that was more the case during the 90s because of the collapse of the USSR, nowadays, there are a lot of Russians in the region but most are normal people. To Southern Chinese, Russians are pretty foreign, as far as Europid type peoples, they are much more familiar with and accustomed to Western Europeans and Americans (especially in areas like Shanghai/Guangdong, etc)
There is a youtube channels of Russians in China.
They make the same content as many american youtubers do it.
But from the point of russian native about local traditions and how they understand it.

This channel I recommend. This guy lives in Guangzhou and talks mostly about Guandong province and Hong Kong.
He describes his life in Guangdong province from the point of russian native.

Also this channel worth to be mentioned. This person lives in northern China and Beijing in particular.
According to my observations they both completely do not understand people and local traditions.
People in China answering basic questions about Russia.
What do you think about Putin? What famous russians do you know?

Here people on the streets of Guangzhou telling their opinion about war in Ukraine. This is very important topic for Russians.
There is two questions was asked. What do you think about war in Ukraine? and how do you perceive actions of Russia in that conflict?

Common stereotypes about Russia in China that this azeri guy could pick.
1. In Russia lives only russian people, and there is no other ethnicities in Russia absolutely, 2. Russians speak english language, 3. Russians are fat people, 4. Russians drink vodka, 5. Putin is greatest Russian leader, 6. Russia is a cold country.
It's the globalization bug. Resistance is futile, there is no impenetrable culture left :laugh:
I noticed that chinese people are into English Premier League. Is soccer/football a popular sport to play in China?
