Only in China, an event can’t do without perfect usherettes
« on: September 22, 2011, 07:25:25 pm »
“Since when, usherette become an indispensable part of meetings in China?” New Weekly posted the question in its official weibo on the “hell training” of usherettes for the up-coming Central China Expo to be held at Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province.
"..their training routine often includes ballet and folk dancing for overall posture, standing on heels with books on head for body stability.."

Can this be true? Can the fine tuning of "perfection", the Chinese woman, only turn robotic? My ex was good looking....she could balance a beer on her nose for about 20 seconds or so. She thought any time beyond that was beer time wasted.
I looked at the comments section...seems as if a few of the "ugly's" are coming out of their shadows on this.

Now! Now! remember Doctor's Order!    An Apple a day keeps the doctor away. Hmm! Which one is Apple?

I like the one in 3rd column 7th row back with shorts round her ankles!

I will take the one way in the very back holding a letter from the Canadian Consulate in Hong Kong requesting a submission of a new medical and the pages of her passport book!  8) She is the one floating on cloud number nine!

I hope Rhonald's is real.

You better believe it - she finally got the long for waited letter - mailed out Sept. 6 th. Once the new medical & other paper work done, she could have her visa ready around December. Home for Christmas what a treat  8) I will be able to finally make use of that mistletoe and I will even kiss her feet when never again having to miss her toes  for Christmas ::)

mind game
this is interesting from a different viewpoint..a bit more obvious if you play your mind game.
these girls are said to be 17-  22 years of age. their parents are 40ish more likely than not.
now, using my wife as an example, I wonder what life awaits these young women as they
grow into their “prime”?
by prime, I am writing a "Western” standard (today's), say 35- 49. not
the Chinese variety, +35 yrs, you are burnt toast.

my wife is in her mid- 40's & “very conservative” in her life style. her  requirements are simple.
maybe she is a typical Chinese woman or darn close to whatever typical is. I would say my wife is
still in her computer learning curve. probably most Chinese women that age are much the same as
her from what I gather from the posts on this site.

if you extrapolate multiculturalism, gender population trends, socio- economic trends &
developments, and of course, the nightmare of geo- political realities, into the far future, maybe
20- 25 years, what life awaits these fine examples of young Chinese women? The article is just a
taste teaser...in general I refer to all the young Chinese women coming into age.

of course, she can not be like her mother now, things happen, things change.
these young women will more than likely have their different brave new world. information
technologies change dramatically, but the end result is the same. information in a moment.
more understandable...the world will be smaller and closer.

still there maybe the Chinese traditionalism of gender bias that comes into play. how long can
that play out with the increasing disparity of population gender? 
or will the whole world become knowledge institutionalized, the “playing fields” leveling. maybe
the Chinese woman becomes more like her Western sister or the Western man like China 
men.
the question above refers to "what life awaits these young women as they
grow into their “prime”.


(I think today's day & age was a perfect recipe for my wife & I. the future?
I am not discounting anything. today is "what it is").
I refer to 'change".)
