We received some heated responses from expats about what they see as stereotyping Dear Expat Page, I think you're extremely racist in judging expats like this. I have had local guys pestering me to go out with them. I have been out with my boyfriend, who is local, and yet local guys have come up to me. While we ang moh girls are walking down Boat Quay, for example, local guys see us and think they can treat us however they want, staring, making comments and even touching. I get this even when I'm walking to shops.
Local girls are at fault, too.
For example, when ships come in, you see local girls getting all tarted up and going after the sailors. Many times, when I've been out, locals try to chat me up. This isn't ego talking, it's a fact. Plus, I've got loads of female American friends who get approached by local guys. Some of these guys don't leave my friends alone until some of us pretend we're with the girls.
