You know you've been in China for too long, when...1.8 is considered "quite tall"! |

Chinese people CAN be tall!
Go up north and look at those people - it's like land of thew giants.
I know a bloke from Chengdu who is definitely over six foot.
In the south - all shrimps.
In February I went to Hainan and I felt like I was head and shoulders above all of them, came back to Shanghai and it was like everyone had grown two foot in height.
And yes, Mao had green teeth. Plus he didn't like to bathe very often but he was very good at swimming. He used to eat KFC every Saturday with the family. |

I thought be bathed in the yangze every day, and slept with peasant virgins to test self control. Or was that Gandi? |

According to his doctor, he failed the test regularly (that and the STD test the doc gave him). |

yeah ppl @ north are tall. All my cousins (my mum's side are from the north) are over 185.
yeah mao did have bad teeth. becoz he never brushed them!! (yuck! i dont envy jiangq ing, imaging having to kiss a mouthful of tea stain)
also he had strange sleeping pattern. sleep for something like 1.5 days and stay up for 2-3 days, and sleep again.
his bed was full of books.
it puzzles me. what happened after his favourit son died. cant he produce speerrrrms again for more kids with random women he 'danced' with??? @_@
well 'black cat white cat whoever catches the mouse is a good cat'. Deng xiaoping was a shortie he was still a great man.
in fact a lot of the great military men were/are shorties. think napoleon.
I bumped into this top general dude of Turkey last year. he was soooo shorttt!!! one head shorter than me! I suppose bullets just go over their head instead of hitting them. |

Bad teeth: brainwashed Westners tend to forget that Mao was a revolutionary that spend decades escaping, hiding, fighting. Hence the bad hygiene.
Sleeping with virgins: bad when supposedly done by Mao - a mere human, ok (or downright false, unproved, propaganda) when done by the da1a¡ 1ama- a living god.
Chinese people's size - I really dont think Chinese are short. Amazing how people who actually live here can say that. |
