Do ethnic Mongolian, Manchurian, and Tibetan readers get annoyed reading Jin Yong?

No, a Real Man abstains for 110 years.

That's what he said.

You know, it's hard to believe 2 years have passed since this lively and thought-provoking discussion took place.

In case anyone missed the lively and thought-provoking discussion the first time.

Well, coming back from long hiatus. Mongols would be pissed off by reading Jin Yong novels, if they ever read. I know only one Mongolian who reads Jin Yong, and that is being me.

How do you know that they would be pissed off? You don't represent the whole Mongolian race. If Jin Yong novels are being translated into other languages, I bet some of the population would enjoy it. Pretty much all Manchurian people read Chinese, I bet they enjoy Jin Yong and other wuxia novel just as much as other ethnicity.

They probably do (although some of them might also get a little peeved too). Bruce Lee movies are HUGE in Japan, even though Japanese characters are routinely villains in many of Bruce's movies.

The funny thing (I may be out of date here but knowing you, I doubt it) is that you, the threadstarter, asked such a question having never read a single JY novel!

Gawddang! I just read the 1st 7 pages of this thread. Can't believe I missed out on it all this time!

Name calling! Warefare debates! Racism! Trolling! Satire! Even Fawlty Towers!!!!

It's not relevant; I know their general content and, more importantly, I'm not Mongolian, Manchurian, or Tibetan.

Epic, isn't it?

Get everyone back here and continue!

In the words of JY: "This was indeed an extraordinary opportunity which no one has ever encountered before, and now with [its completion], no one ever will get a second chance."

Haha I was re-reading the Ultimate RPG and noted that you were just as bigoted as JY :

The eyes of the Tibetan monk cast fear upon the remaining heroes of the Central Plains.

They all thought: "Third Master Pang Yu's kungfu is well-known throughout the realm. Even a First-Class Fighter would have trouble withstanding his mighty blows. And yet, and yet..."

"This monk finished him AND Super Divine Saintly Man Dongfang Hong, both in just ONE stance!"

Heroes of the Central Plains knew they were doomed.

The Tibetan cannot be a friend!

Tibetans are never a friend!

[PJ]

I'll take that as a compliment.

I know. You are American. You belong to the civilized world .

It has been three years and you are still picking on me. You can't just let go, Can you?
