[sub][sub][sub][sub]NOW... THESE ARE JUST MY OPINIONS AND ANSWERS TO MY OWN QUESTIONS, BEING ASKED, FEEL FREE TO ANSWER THEM DIFFERENTLY IF YOU LIKE

1.Yeah i can agree with this one. But us Hmong dudes get assumed the same thing, "Oh is that your new girlfriend?" haha but you gotta realize, if you were dating someone and you saw him walking around with a girl you didnt know, you'd say he was cheating.. well some girls haha. People just assume things too much.
2.Past 11 there are some crazy people out there. I usually cruise the strip til then and come home. Drunk drivers and all of that etc etc. Dont want my baby to get hit by some intoxicated asshole. Plus a girl whos home early, and up early in the morning looks better than a girl who comes home early and gets up hella late!
3.Well they "assume" the dude did something to the girl. So its either pay and go home, or pay and go home with the girl. Its just a way of making money haha.
4.You can do whatever you want when you grow up. but for now do as your parents say, need to learn how to be "wifey" material ha.
5.Marrying someone that is close is better. You know their backgroung, you know if they are good or bad people. And if divorce ever comes into mind, well are you not embarassed enough to go through with it. Hmong couples last longer because of this. Americans divorce whenever.
6.I wouldnt know. Im not a daughter ha. But "wifey" material?
7.They cant understand, or you cant understand/realize?
No intentions to hurt feelings, just my opinion. Im first generation here, but i beleive in our hmong people's rules and ways of life. Good subject by the way (:
