"Our main question is why out the window?" So... you're wondering why people are careless of where they throw their trash (regardless of how unhygienic/disgusting), and have a total lack of regard for others when doing so? You must be new here. Welcome to China. Enjoy your stay (and watch where you step). Full Comment>>

I already picked that up when I was in Poland, and never let it go. Just makes sense. The outside is (hopefully) dirtier than the inside, so it makes sense to take off shoes.

Actually, you can call it racist and xenophobic. The fact that Caucasians won't be considered Chinese by the majority of the Chinese population, shows that.

The problem is too many non-Chinese (more specifically, non-Han Chinese) just accept the term "foreigner" without thinking, just because it's been heaped on us continuously. If you wouldn't refer to all non-whites as "foreigner", then why accept that all non-yellows are referred to as "foreigner" in China? Full Comment>>
