Rock,
As to Taiwan, let me ask you something.
First, the cold hard facts are that everywhere I go in Taiwan, the ONLY people who will FREELY talk to me are: 1) elderly Taiwanese and 2) foreign travelers. That fact remains consistent everywhere I go in Taiwan. Taiwanese women definitely do not "freely" talk to strangers. That much is obvious. I think even you know that, but deny it due to your predilection for playing devil's advocate.
Now, don't tell me it's because there's something wrong with me. Every sincere normal Taiwanese male I've asked told me that that's just how Taiwanese women are, not open to strangers at all. It's just a simple fact. Even the security guard in our neighborhood told me that too. Now, note that they didn't say, "Well Taiwanese girls are open to strangers, but just not to you cause you aren't attractive or anything special", no, they said that THEY WERE NOT OPEN IN GENERAL. So it wasn't about me, but about THEM.
So quit the victim blaming. I'm talking about in GENERAL, Taiwanese girls aren't open to freely talking to random strangers, not just me. That is the truth. Do you deny that? Why would you deny something that obvious? That's like denying that 2+2=4.
Now, you say that you've seen a lot of foreign guys do well in Taiwan.
Ok, suppose we are both right. Is that possible? Are my statement and yours mutually exclusive or can they be both right at the same time? If they are both right, then can you logically reconcile them?
Even Western guys have told me that Taiwanese girls are not easy to cold approach or chat up in public. A black guy even nodded and admitted that at the club in Taichung we went to last year. And some western guys have told me that by email too. I mean, this fact is just too obvious. So I know I'm not wrong about this. For sure.
So let's say we are both right. How to reconcile both of our experiences and claims then?
