Zhong Han Euphemism of the Day!
We’re all familiar with Zhong Han’s, err, creative use of the English language. Well, my friends, this time she’s outdone herself. To describe the routine Chinese procedure that her cousin underwent yesterday, she said “my cousin have baby disappeared.” How precious, Zhong Han can even make abortions adorable!
This caps off an interesting year for our friend Han Han that involved a lot of growing up. She went from a 25 year old virgin in college in rural China to a promiscuous drug addict living in Shanghai whose cousin just dropped her very own a-bomb. Welcome to 21st Century China!
Unfortunately, this is a very telling microcosm of youth culture in modern China. Because drugs and sex remain social taboos, drug and sex education is nonexistent. As a result, many Chinese adolescents engage in the aforementioned behavior completely ignorant of the consequences (namely: addiction and babies, respectively).
PS I’ve had a lot of questions about Zhong Han’s new facebook album. And, no, she’s not that hot. It’s called airbrushing, people!

Are you trying to tell me that it isn’t an effective social policy to simply forbid “deviant activities”? This is the first I’ve heard of it.

Then again, colorectal surgery is often a taboo subject, but you don’t see all the kiddies running to get their anooses under the knife.
