The only Chinese zoo i had the bad fortune to visit made me cry. The animals were pure entertainment: there were 'elephant shows', 'Big cat' shows, where they had to perform. The living conditions were dreadful and the keepers made no attempt to prevent the public from tormenting the animals. Please do NOT visit a ... Full Comment>>

Articles : sorrel commented on news Foreign Teacher Training Institutions: The Only Qualification Necessary is a Foreign Face

The ideal candidate for Chinese recruiters and parents is tall, blonde, Caucasian and male. Being female you are faced with also being offered mostly Primary or Elementary school positions because "you are a girl and like children". Ability is not important to many places because profit is the bottom line. Full Comment>>

Guys who grope/assault women will use any excuse to diminish their responsibility for their actions and to 'justify' what they do: "she was asking for it" etc. They will still do it even if a woman is FULLY covered - and it does happen, hence the provision in some countries of women only train carriages.
