Vietnam: Backpacker Exclusive Bar
"Westerners prefer to see a poor and backward country rather than a rapidly growing Vietnam."
Since the end of the Vietnam War in the 1970s, Vietnam has been one of the most popular destinations for sex tourism in Southeast Asia. The sex trade is illegal in Vietnam. Bars and karaoke halls engaged in sex services need to bribe local law enforcement agencies to operate, otherwise they face severe fines and imprisonment.
It is understood that in Ho Chi Minh City today, the most popular are those mixed blood bars. The girls there were half-descents of American soldiers and local women. They inherited the bones of the Westerners' atmosphere, and possessed the unique temperament of the East.

There is a type of bar specifically for European and American tourists who come to Southeast Asia for business negotiations or backpacking.

The girl who works in the bar usually receives a guest who can earn 50-70 dollars, and will pay 10 yuan to the bar owner. Vietnamese heterosexual dating
These Western tourists are more willing to accept the image of Vietnam's poverty and backwardness, so as to satisfy their psychological western superiority, patriarchy, and white supremacy. Most of them have suffered from marriage failure or male self-esteem in their own country.

This kind of men suffering from middle-aged crisis in developed countries often cannot meet the material or social status needs of wives at home. They came to Southeast Asia's playground for fun, saying that the women here are sexy, beautiful and easy to satisfy. In contrast, Western women have no idea how to treat men. They even need to gain self-confidence through the derogation of Vietnamese men by women, hoping to hear their praise for being stronger than Vietnamese men.
While sex workers in Vietnam are earning piao (zi) fees in Europe and the United States, they will also try to establish long-term partnerships with them to obtain a stable economic source.

Asian women in the West have the image of traditional Oriental little women.

Many Europeans and Americans think Vietnam is poor. They like to hear stories of us from poor families who have to do this for a living. I ca n’t look too fashionable in front of guests. If I can make them think I am a Poor traditional Vietnamese rural girls, they will give me a lot of money. "In this way, more than half of sex workers have successfully obtained" donations "ranging from $ 1,000 to $ 50,000 for Western tourists. These little coins can't even satisfy a wife's wish in their own country, and here they can help a family, even a village. Sex workers make these customers feel like a Western superhero who has saved the world's troubles.
This is exactly the same as that developed countries excel at admiring some aid projects in third world countries. Europeans and Americans see that people living in less developed areas are living a poor life at the bottom of their lives that they can not imagine and cannot understand, and funding them is both charity and poverty alleviation, and it also strengthens their psychological superiority from developed countries.

In order to better write this article, I went to watch a Broadway classic "Miss Saigon". The play tells that American soldier Chris meets Kim, a Vietnamese pub woman in Saigon, and the two fall in love, but are forced to be separated by the withdrawal of the US military. Kim silently gave birth to Chris' child, who lived as a bar girl in Bangkok, and Chris met his current wife when he returned to the United States. When Kim learns that Chris is married and it is impossible to take her and her son back to the United States, he resolutely raises his gun to commit suicide, so as to ensure that his son has the opportunity to live in the United States. In the final scene of the stage, Chris' current wife picked up the mixed-race child.
Because the subject matter of the drama involves controversial topics such as sex industry in Southeast Asia, race, Vietnam War, intermarriage, etc., it has been criticized by many play critics. However, aside from the dramatic treatment in the repertoire, the actual situation in Saigon at the time was indeed the same: women at the bottom engaged in sex work in bars, everyone sharpened their heads and longed for a visa to enter the United States. Locally cast aside. It is interesting that the description of the Vietnamese "preferring to sacrifice their lives but also chasing the Golden American Dream" in the play is indeed in line with the "due subordinate relationship" between Vietnam and the United States in Western ideology.
