You must be a male for one because a female would just think of it as another thing to carry in her purse and move on about it. Since you have seen all of China already and know everything then I hope you never go out from your house again. Or if you do, don't forget your nappie as it would be absolutely ridiculous ...

Any takers for Line 3/4 in Shanghai? Maybe we can get air conditioning too for Zhongshan park station, woohoo! Full Comment>>

Heaven forbid a foreigner might actually want to interact and do a "local" job. If the Chinese government did anything about this I would just feel pity on them for holding themselves back rather than making new rules and regulations for people who really are interested and good for China.

ok, stop already with the repeat article saying the same thing in different wording. Thanks for your concern. We got the message. Full Comment>>

How is this not an example of "losing face"? Chinese people hate it when others "lose their cool" in public and do and say irrational things.... hmm it seems that Yang Rei indeed spoke out of turn. Anger is not a justification for saying whatever you want... That being said.. China has a right to ... Full Comment>>

Try pof, it's free and people mainly speak English on there. Can also search people outside of China.. Couchsurfing is also a good one for travelers needing a place to crash out.. maybe more? Full Comment>>

oh yeah! you're the guy sorting the W's from the M's at the M&M factory!! You're doing a freaking amazing job! Full Comment>>

unfortunately not all expats are men here and as one person previously stated.. size matters (slimness, thickness, width, height). I completely agree, which is why I don't choose to be with someone whose kneecap is 2 times smaller than my own (as a female, it's quite disturbing). Anyway, my point it, just because ...

Seeing Chinese "lose face" is just like watching the 2006 film Idiocracy come to life. hahaha Full Comment>>

I would like to thank the author for the great ideas in the article. So good to have an article which is helpful and not harmful to the profession. The only thing I would caution is large groups of students standing up all at once, which can really turn into a gong-show to say the least. That being said... I'm ... Full Comment>>

Almost like men... :) Full Comment>>

Oh, you're right! I forgot I'm marrying a guy for his dick size. Hmm in that case I should choose an African or Latin American guy. Thanks so much for reminding me. Hmm, funny thing about people with money... generally points to a clever person with good business sense and a decent education. Why the hell would any ... Full Comment>>

Remember the good old days... the ones way back when they had what was called arranged marriages? As a woman in the 21st century, I'd rather be subjected to that then choose a person I love. Love blinds, love hurts, love is fake as ..... So men, if my parents would not tolerate or choose you, then you are bad for ... Full Comment>>

It's great to read the comments, they are so diverse and amazing passion on both sides... I just want to add a small thing.. I know that in China it is more forced that a man should marry a woman and carry on the legacy and I understand that factor.. However it's not prevalent in all cultures. In Canada which I'd ...

Great article. I have a friend who went through an even worse scenario then this... Living in Wuhan at the time, we went to Tongji hospital for all her regular check-ups because it's supposed to be the best.. also the most expensive for some things. But she had a regular doctor seeing her there and she felt ... Full Comment>>

ok, fair enough. But asking about them being hookers.. I've not been the only or first... sorry in both regards Full Comment>>

I'm not sure about different parts of China for men but there does seem to be differences depending on where you are regarding shirts on or off. I would like to point out however, the female side of that statement. Chinese women are the biggest wh*res I have ever seen in summer time. When I first came to China, in ... Full Comment>>

This is a first generation reaction. In countries such as the U.S, Canada, U.K., etc. where immigration is high, all of these things have a tendency of occurring. The first generation of immigrants often cocoon themselves and stick to the company of people they can relate to. It's a natural feeling when you are in a ... Full Comment>>

And how about the disrespectful and tactless comment he made on western girls.....? Your an idiot. Full Comment>>

Seriously? Like... seriously? How did you get.....? OK, Nevermind. Full Comment>>

Good article. Quite relevant, especially with all the academic contests going on this month. Full Comment>>
