Around China : Karajorma commented on news Inflatable Sex Dolls a Popular Buy on Singles’ Day

You know you've messed up when you've had to defend women only cars as being a step forwards rather than the victim blaming nonsense they actually are. Don't like China's attitude towards sex? That's fine, I don't either. But if you're going to try to claim that Japan has a healthy, adult attitude towards sex then ... Full Comment>>

Around China : Karajorma commented on news Wealthy Chinese Student’s Maserati Confiscated in Scotland after Drunk Driving Charges

I'm fairly sure that the sentence isn't actually ungrammatical, just really badly constructed. I agree that it definitely is confusing and should be rewritten but "A student’s Maserati" sounds fine, as does "A wealthy student’s Maserati" With each additional qualifier the sentence gets harder to understand, but as ...

I don't think it's white being better so much as not really believing (or not thinking they can get the parents to believe) that someone non-white can be just as much an American or Brit as a white American or Brit. Full Comment>>

Articles : Karajorma commented on news Kindergarten Accuses Parents of Libel for Complaining about Russian ESL Teacher

I've got to disagree with that. It doesn't matter whether you are qualified or not. What matters is your motivation. Sure, there are a lot of students who will never become fluent. But if someone is the kind of teacher actually believes that no one you are involved with the teaching of can ever reach fluency, no ... Full Comment>>

That's hardly a fair comparison though. Many Indians are effectively bilingual. India's version of Mandarin (a common language for the whole country) is English. It's not really a second language for many of them. Full Comment>>

Articles : Karajorma commented on news Kindergarten Accuses Parents of Libel for Complaining about Russian ESL Teacher

If someone is a native English teacher but believes that non-native teachers shouldn't teach, they must have a really low opinion of themselves. Surely a goal of teaching a foreign language is to allow the person learning to reach fluency. So why teach if you believe you aren't ever going to get someone there? Full Comment>>

Then explain why Sally said “Russians cannot teach English. Not as long as there is a white person that can fill the roll,” instead of something sensible about having a native English speaker fill that role. That comment basically torpedoes your entire argument, she quite obviously doesn't understand ... Full Comment>>

Driving at 237km/hour and then posting evidence of your crime on social media is a pretty special kind of stupid. If you make it really easy to convict you, then you are going to get prosecuted. Full Comment>>

Completely misunderstanding of the fact that the use of the word "You" doesn't not have to mean I'm actually speaking to you personally. Not really surprised either. The kind of person who can read an article telling them why they should have an open mind and then completely ignore the reasons stated isn't going to ... Full Comment>>

You decided to visit China, so yeah. If you didn't want to put up with that, perhaps you should have just stayed at home rather than deciding to backpack through a foreign country and then complain about everything that makes it foreign. Full Comment>>
