Actor Charlie Sheen is a classic example of the difference in Western and
Eastern values and norms.
Ignoring public pleas from his father, Sheen has continued a weeklong media
blitz, exhibiting obvious
signs of mania. With no firm hand to guide them, Western media has
deliberately goaded him into making
increasingly delusional statements, more concerned about "winning" higher
ratings than Sheen's own sense
of pride, or the negative example his brash public admissions about his
private sex life and unverifiable
international conspiracies could be setting for society.
How many young people have been led astray by Sheen's boasts about his
substance abuse and
freewheeling sex life? And that was when he was in character on national
television, as a randy bachelor in
Two and a Half Men.
Sheen attracted 1 million Twitter followers in just 24 hours, yet more
evidence that microblogs spread the
most unhealthy contagions in society like a disease. Chinese family,
coworkers, or the authorities would
have taken firm steps to make sure someone like Sheen did not make a public
spectacle of himself.
Take Edison Chen, who humbly apologized and slipped away to Canada. Or Li
Gang's father, who wept as
he sought forgiveness on his son's behalf.
The fact that Sheen continues to embarrass himself unabated, becoming even a
hero to many, points to the
vast differences in cultures.
His employers are unhappy that he was distracted with prostitutes and drugs,
and didn't show up to work
on time. Why not take a tip from the Chinese business community, and make
visits to a KTV parlor part of
Sheen's workday?
And instead of epic parties at his home with porn stars, why not keep Sheen
occupied with business
banquets?
Sheen goes on television and boasts that he has two girlfriends, who both
sleep in the same bedroom. Is he
too poor to set up his wives and mistresses in different houses?
In Chinese society, these problems are dealt with delicately and privately.
Sheen is like a typical Westerner
throwing fuel on the fire with each interview and tweet. It is almost as if
he feels no shame and is loving
the attention.
Racism, spousal abuse, addiction, politics, mental illness, boasting about
mistresses, - these are all
subjects best dealt with behind closed doors.
As much as Sheen has lived a life most Chinese men can only fantasize about,
our admiration of him can
only go so far. He has not only lost face with his public rants, but also
crossed a cultural barrier no Chinese
can abide.
He ignored his own father's advice to keep quiet, who was once the president
of the US. Sheen is a
disgrace, unfilial to his father and his fatherland.
Martin Sheen should at once go on television and tearfully apologize on
behalf of his son for his inability to
keep up appearances and keep his mouth shut. | p**********d
