Agencies in China's Chengdu city are offering rented girlfriends to bachelors who need someone to show off to relatives during the upcoming Chinese Lunar New Year.
Why is the advertisement in English?

#12  I got into a friendship with a chinese woman over the net once. After about 3-4 chats she invited me over to visit -- even offered to pay for the flight!

That kind of put me off. But in truth she was a pretty nice person. I got the impression she was pretty naive.

#11  Oh, I don't know - young Chinese women just want a husband, fast. I've had several fall in love with me, and when I asked if they wanted to leave China or go live in America, they always said they wanted to stay home.

China is just like everywhere else, they think they're the best country in the world.

#10  I have a friend in China, an American, who has been there 3 years and been engaged 4 times. Lots of young Chinese women want out of China. The engagement stops when they realize he has no intention of leaving China. These aren't bad people, just looking for a way out. He's also a sucker for a sad story.

#6  Didn't someone offer to be a 'pretend' net-girlfriend on ebay a few months ago? They would send email, chat messages, and letters but 'Notice that this does not really mean that I am your girlfriend - this is all pretend!'.....
