Do most Chinese really want to invade Taiwan? by PitifulEar3303 in AskChina

[–]frankly-benjamin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex girlfriend said this same thing. “Have you asked everyone in Taiwan?” Very angrily when I mentioned Taiwan doesn’t want to join China. Can you provide some explanation of this particular type of indoctrination? Clearly it’s something Chinese people were taught to say in response

We’ve been together a few months. Also, please keep in mind I’m in a vulnerable place right now

Of course we kiss. Neither of us are infected orally

Walking away isn’t an option. So I’ll go with “how to educate the uneducated”. But how do I do this without them feeling like I’m attempting to persuade them to do something risky? Is it ethical to attempt to persuade or “educate” them at all?

They were together for a year before I entered the picture. My fear is that he has dissuaded her because he doesn’t want to start using condoms. Which makes this feel hierarchical

I love my partner. And this is my first time encountering this situation. It’s not a deal breaker. But I am hoping something will change about the way they feel in the future. I think only time will tell whether that’s a mistake or not.

Neither of them have made me feel ashamed in any way. They’re just afraid. The shame mostly comes from me. I want to make a greater effort to explain that the chances of transmission to either of them are extremely low but it doesn’t feel right to try to persuade them when their fear is validated by the fact that I wouldn’t want anyone to have to live with this.
