beijing, day 4, ettiquette (lomosite, 15 sept '04)

look away and try not to gag when you see/hear:

1. people clear their throat and then spit on the ground.

2. little children doing their "business" on the sidewalk or roadside or hutong, big and small.

3. mommies holding the kids who are doing their "business".

4. mommies wiping their kids' butts when they do their "business".
