I've been living in Singapore for two years now as a Caucasian man. I'm fluent in Mandarin. While here, I often hear people discussing me, but one of the most endearing moments happened recently. As I stepped off the train, an elderly lady looked up at me in surprise and exclaimed to her friend in Mandarin, "Wow, handsome man!" I couldn't resist and replied, "Wow, pretty lady," as we passed each other. The whole exchange lasted just a few seconds. I caught a glimpse of her blushing and her friend laughing as the train doors closed.
