Re "yellow fever" OR no options at all: Which one is correct?

Why older white men travel to China seeking younger women are so bitter/anti Chinese when things don't go their way. Consider all this like gambling in a casino, you win, you're happy...you lose, go back home quiet - with your tail firmly between your legs. End of story.

It should be end of story, and I'm sure it is for some; however others join forces on Internet forums with other malcontents and end up blaming China if the only place they ever got laid was in a brothel. They end up on a hate campaign against China in general. Of course they will never admit that it was the Chinese women who found them repulsive which instilled this China hatred in the first place. Least of all to themselves maybe; being in denial.

Seeking Asian Female Film





Seeking Asian Female is an eccentric modern love story about Steven and Sandy -- an aging white man with "yellow fever" who is obsessed with marrying any Asian woman, and the young Chinese bride he finds online. Debbie, a Chinese American filmmaker, documents and narrates with skepticism and humor, from the early stages of Steven's search, through the moment Sandy steps foot in California for the first time, to a year into their precarious union. Global migration, Sino-American relations and the perennial battle of the sexes, weigh in on the fate of their marriage in this intimate and quirky personal documentary.
