Taiwan is like the best parts of China, Japan, SE Asia had a baby and he grew up to be his own man and add his own flair.
Such friendly people, almost no tourism compared to SE Asia or Japan or China or Korea. It's like China with hospitality, Japan with some grime. I love it.
I think it's the best place in Asia all things considered. Also, the religiosity is interesting.

Name one thing from /trv/ that has ever diffused into normiedom. 99% of the board is people talking about Japan, Thailand, etc. this is one of the most normie boards already. /trv/ is a very closed eco-system more influenced by the outside than the other way around

>name one thing /trv has diffused into normiedom
/trv is like the grassroots hidden gem that is small but powerful. Its the hidden root that eventually gets covered in a youtube or influencers blog and snowballs from there
Just like a lot of words (normie, looksmaxxing , staceys, chads) origin is this website
But yeah its not like this thread is going to ruin Taiwan like this guy might think

Looksmaxxing doesn't come from here. It comes from PSL sphere which goes back to early 2010s. The only looksmaxxing terms that come from here are Chad and Stacy, but I'm not entirely sure about the former. Looksmaxxing sphere on its own doesn't share a lot of with this place, it has more similarities with old bodybuilding forums and late 2000s PUA scene (it grew out in opposition to it).
I see someone idiots from this website claim that looks maxing comes from here and its so retarded lmao.
t. first browsed this website in 2011 and had an account on lookism in 2017

Normalfags won‘t go to Taiwan. Most people don‘t even know the country exists and think of Thailand when they hear the name. And those who do know mostly do so because of tensions with China, which mostly keeps them afraid enough not to go.
That said: you should go if you haven‘t, it‘s easily one of the best countries in Asia. Every single thing OP said is correct and you should go before China eventually takes over in the longterm and turns the place to shit.
