Thread Name: BS: Sex, religion and politics
Subject: RE: BS: Sex, religion and politics
In public the Chinese are pretty subdued about talking about sex, as there is no real religion here that is out and the politics is how they despise their leaders in Beijing for corruption.

But in private the Chinese girls are always comparing and discussing sex. Over here still considered a taboo subject in public.

When Jade and I were in Germany last year on a holiday we were in Munich and she noticed a sex shop. Bit like trying to stop a dog chasing a cat, she was in before I could blink.

In the end it was me being embarassed as she held up various sizes of large plastic penii and vibrators and in a loud happy voice pointing out they were all made in China and then asking why they could not get the big versions in China.

Things are on the change here though regarding sex. Politics will always be taboo unless you are sure the person you are talking to is not an informer.
