they're not really smelly, some of the professors smell worse. but their breath sometimes REALLY reeks. and that's a problem when you're teaching them how to talk because you have to lean in pretty close...
ok, that explains a lot. i learned the first time i went to china that chinese deodorant is not very effective, so bring extra. while i recognize that chinese people largely produce LESS b.o. than white people, they still stink. for a while i was like, ok, their deodorant sucks, its not their fault. but they aren't even wearing any!? man, the olympics are only 2 years away. homies have got to get that shit figured out, and soon.
haha...i showed them my deodorant today and they were like, why don't you just use perfume? i explained that my goal wasn't to smell nice, it was not to smell bad. and i explained antiperspirant. they had no idea.
did you read the thing about beijing saying the worst habit was spitting, and they have to teach people how to "spit correctly" before the olympics? it'll be a while before they get to the deodorant problem.
yeah, i remember hearing about that. honestly, i think some basic hygiene skills should be given higher priority.
and yes, more people need to understand that taking something that smells bad and adding something that smells good does not result in something that smells good. i could think of so many entertaining examples to demonstrate that point.
