|
|
| Im not kidding, over here in China there has been a major unforseen reaction of the Iraq war....the US army has become the hottest fashing statement. Green and Khaki military looking cloths with US Army tags and insignia are everywhere, it's pretty halarious. But best of all, if your really hip you have a full American dress uniform....I'm not kidding, at some of the bars or clubs I hang out at it's not at all uncommon to see a table full of guys and girls in full army dress uniforms with rank, berets, unit insignia and ribbons, and people think that this is the coolest this since the audi a-6. Yet another reason I don't see any major conflicts between our 2 countries in the near future....... |

| American cultural influence. It is such a blessing in some ways and in some regions, and a curse in others...... |

:wink: China has the tradition to welcome to variant culture,
generally,it's a different culture out of other nation's mind.:lol:
sometime ,the China is a old guy and a kid at the same time.
chaos is permitted in the culture even from antient China philosophy. |

And in some area, bad business.
I was looking at how I put that, and I guess I need to expand on it.
In China, and Japan, and in other places it is welcome. It brings freindship and commenality.
But it also brings with it moral decay. Maybe we should have a ban on exporting Hollywood. :lol: |

can't say as I agree with you on that in terms of Asia....China's just begining to rediscover it's own culture after the commie tried to wipe it out. Western liberals ideas and the resulting opening up of China has a big part to do with China's cultural re-awakening. Plus in terms of Morals China had nowhere to go but up man....... |
