Sex culture has degenerated along w/ other aspects of culture. Wasn't aware of Naked Attraction, so I looked it up. Here's a promo that includes a montage of naked contestants at the end. The first 2 bodies shown seem to be trans. Not only included but given prominent place. Thereafter the main thing I noticed was all the women were shaved. This is an abomination. What's the appeal? Doesn't it make them look more like children? Isn't the contrast of the mature delta a primal signifier for male arousal. WTF? No wonder birth rates are plummeting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8EI1U3u2kg
It's interesting that you say Taipei only got bombed once. My late mother-in-law grew up in Taipei in the 30s and 40s, and according to her, bombing was not an infrequent occurrence when she was a schoolgirl and the Japanese were still running things. She claims she lost several bookbags she had to drop to run from the bombs.
She spoke the native Taiwanese at home, and was taught Japanese in school. After the war she was unable to go back to school, so she reached adulthood and spent her life unable to speak Mandarin, and only could read what she picked up here and there. When she told me and my wife about all this, it was only my wife translating from Taiwanese that made it possible for me to hear the stories. In fairness, even had her mother known Mandarin, mine is too rudimentary to understand that much.
On the other hand, some would say that a mother-in-law that cannot talk to you is the perfect one to have...
Thanks for the correction. I should have read more carefully about all the smaller raids that preceded the big one in May of 1945. Will work on rewording article now.
My Hakkanese mother-in-law is a peach. Can't love her enough. Generally speaking, for their daughter's sake, mother-in-laws in Taiwan treat their son-in-laws very well.
On another note, I remember when I came to Taiwan many years ago, lots of the old people couldn't speak Mandarin and only spoke Japanese and Taiwanese/Hakkanese.
I applied for new visa at the airport in Saigon, just minutes after I had technically exited. Should get my new visa today or tomorrow. I still have a week left in Taiwan, however.

Hi JustPlainBill,

I wish I had remained ignorant about Jordan Gray. But I looked it up expecting to be appalled and I was.
Saved me the trouble. Thanks for taking one for the team!
Very interesting. How long will you have to stay out of Viet Nam?
Hi Peggy,

It's an early morning city. Walk directly North from where you are, all the way to City God temple. It's a nice walk in the morning.
