I'm sure this has been posted here before but I was reading old longform articles and I ran across one about Chinese business culturequote:As Zheng details in her book, getting overly sentimental or romantic toward women is seen as a sign of weakness and lack of masculinity. If a businessman is unfortunate enough to love his wife or girlfriend, using it as an excuse to avoid sex is a massive faux pas. I’ve seen some instead plead tiredness or drunkenness, a more acceptable excuse, or use everyone’s 2 am exhaustion as a chance to slip away. Yet it’s not unknown, according to sex workers, for men who have retired with the girls for the night to pay for “special services” the next morning that they never received, instead spending the night watching television or sleeping chastely. http://www.chinafile.com/reporting-opinion/postcard/bro-code evidently getting so drunk you puke and then watching your flabby middle aged boss rail a wan, dead-eyed KTV girl is critical for conducting any kind of transaction. i mean I knew about the whole boys culture associated with Chinese business but lmao at the descriptions this person does

I'm in the room next to my professor and he's on speaker phone coordinating international students from Chengdu university, and he's talking about making sure they have special access to kitchens because everyone knows they won't eat American food. lmao
