    Sure! Here's the translation of the given passage:

    "Alright, no problem! Taiwan here turned out quite different from my imagination.

    • Before I went to Taiwan, I had many preconceptions, but when I arrived, it was actually quite different from what I expected!

      • The locals are generally very friendly and make one feel at ease.
        • Let me tell you a story: One day in Taipei, I was eating with a few friends, but we ended up without enough cash! What an embarrassing situation! Luckily, a nearby kind-hearted girl noticed and offered to pay for our meal! She really moved me.
    • ⚠️ Important reminder! Pay attention!

      • Let me give a heads up to those heading to Taiwan about payment methods:
        • Many small food stalls or street vendors and shops with local characteristics prefer taking cash (Taiwanese New Dollars).
        • Although some large shopping malls or chain stores do accept credit cards and other payment methods like Alipay and WeChat (but not everywhere), it is best to carry some Taiwanese cash with you for dining and making small purchases to avoid awkward situations like ours.
        • How should you handle this? Exchange money beforehand or withdraw cash once in Taiwan at the airport, bank, or convenience stores ATMs. It's advisable to ask "Is it possible to use a credit card?" or “Can I use Alipay/WeChat?”
    • There was something else that left a strong impression on me:

      • On the streets, especially in Taipei, you can easily see women with short hair (they call them "T") and their female partners walking arm in arm looking cool.
      • It's just that feeling of freedom, seeing them so natural and happy makes one appreciate the social atmosphere there."

      May I ask what kind of visa you used to come to Taiwan? A friend of mine from Nanjing wants to visit, but after researching and making calls, it seems they can't make it.

            The concentration of lesbians and anime/otaku culture in Changsha is incredibly high.

                It's more like gay people in Taiwan don't have to hide (actually, there are probably just as many everywhere in the world 🤣).

                  Are there few 'T' (butch lesbians) in mainland China? About 8 or 9 years ago, when I went to Beijing with my short-haired classmates, we were constantly asked if we were boys.

                    There are some in mainland China; some just haven't come out publicly.

                      I don't know why, but even though I'm gay myself, I sometimes dislike other gay people. I'm not sure where to seek help for this psychological issue.

                            I'd really love to know how to visit Taiwan. I seem to recall they don't issue individual tourist visas, right?

                              If you're an international student, you just need your proof of enrollment and local proof of residence to apply for an entry permit to Taiwan. It's that simple!
