Myths

After such a serious post, I gotta follow with a light chaser.

My favorite quote from Chairman Mao is “No investigation, no right to speak”. That’s why I came here. And one of the reasons I love living in China is the stories that come from “investigating”. Everyday a new story. Something crazy I couldn’t experience back home. Living here, one can easily accumulate 10 years of stories in a fraction of the time. When you relay to your friends, you might even break some stereotypes…or maybe just perpetuate them, but it’s good fun nonetheless.

I’m reminded of this because a friend told me that in his home country, there’s an urban legend, that the P of Chinese girls is horizontal. So, say what you will about Chairman Mao, but he was right about this one - no investigation, no right to speak.
