LBH Power Tripping


Ah, the famous LBHs. They can be found just about everywhere in China, especially if that place is home to lots of young, willing local girls with visual impairment. For those not in the know, LBH stands for "Loser Back Home" and is used to refer to rather unpleasant Western men who, having trouble getting laid back home, come to Asia to behave like kings and have young women falling at their feet.

Urbandictionary.com defines the term as follows:
-Short for "Loser Back Home".
-Refers to expatriates (Usually hailing from North America or Europe) with low standards who create a completely different persona in their new country to cover for the fact that they are seen as complete douchebags back home.
-The LBH are increasing in number in many Asian countries, specifically Japan and China.
-They usually prey on Asian girls with low self esteem to compensate for never getting laid back in their home countries.

Native: "Look at that LBH, trying to take all of our women..."

Expat with sense: "I'm ashamed for all Westerners..."


LHT: a new phrase has been just coined. LHT = "Loser Here Too" Thank you Andrew for amazing literary input.

Check out this post for a second opinion, it's pretty straight to the point...
