<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1318675, member: 26302&quot;]Seriously? A man, who is married to an asian women, who has studied Chinese coins and numismatic history for over a decade, (not just bought coins but studied the history and background), simply talking about the EXTREMELY well documented history of contemporary counterfeits that the largest group of people in Singapore have experience with is stereotyping/racism?</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry I am simply offended. I did not speak of a minority, but the majority. I did not speak unfoundedly, but based upon numbers of books and numismatic history. I did not pick on a group of which I wish to persecute, my wife is a member of that group. I did not speak from geographical ignorance, I have been to China and all of SE Asia including Singapore. If what I said is unallowable, then basically any statement about any group of people should not be allowed on this board. If that is true, then why even bother studying history? Is NOTHING about any culture allowed to be uttered in public? Am I allowed to discuss how Hepthalite women were married to all of the brothers simultaneously, or is that sexist and racist?</p><p><br /></p><p>I just need to take time away from here I suppose. I would have hoped anyone who knew me and the hundreds of hours I have spent studying Chinese history, Chinese numismatic history, and Chinese culture would not labeling me racist or a stereotyper against a culture, (and a wife), that I love. Evidently not.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
