Was brows­ing through ShanghaiExpat’s fo­rums to­day and found this gem. I’ll at­tempt to trans­late it into Chinese.

hi, my name is mike, a chi­nese man, 34, i am here to find a forgein woman who likes to hang out with me, or have a sex if it’s al­right for her.

你好，我叫MIKE，中国人，三十四岁。我希望在这里找一个外国女人陪我逛逛，或者上床如果她愿意。

to be per­fectly hon­est i am mar­ried, my wife is study­ing abroad…

说实话，我是一个已婚男子。我的妻子在国外学习。

sex is not the only thing i can think of, in fact, i am re­ally into amer­i­can eng­lish, i would love to have fe­male friends only for this pur­pose, and i could teach her chi­nese as a reward.

我不是只想到上床。其实，我很喜欢美国英语，我也很希望只为这个目的交女性朋友。作为回报我可以教她中文。

if you are in­ter­ested, send a mes­sage to —

如果感兴趣，发送邮件到－－－。

(To English learn­ers, this guy’s gram­mar is poor so don’t use this post to learn English.)

After re­ceiv­ing some mockery:

your west­erns seem like much opener? i guess i am damned wrong, cheat­ing sucks, can we for­get about the sex part?

我以为你们西方人非常开放。原来我错了。作弊是不好。我们能不能把上床那部分忘了吧?

but i am not a bad man, be­lieve it or not, you wouldn’t re­gret to meet me if you still wanted to, i mean, for lan­guage learn­ing part

我不是一个坏人，相信与否。如果你还有兴趣与我会面，你不会后悔的。我意思是为了学习语言那部分。

But of course the beat­ing con­tin­ues. Enjoy! Actually I feel they went pretty easy on him.

Today’s les­son: “Hang out with me, or have a sex” is not a good pickup line!
