Q: Can I go swimming if I have tattoos?

I've heard that in some parts of Asia - notably Japan - people with tattoos are denied access to public swimming pools. Does this rule exist in Beijing, and if so, where? (I like swimming, but I have tattoos!)

You certainly can. I have tried and tested. Lot's of people will stare but suprisingly enough people like tattoos in China and they are always saying WOW.

Yes. Of course. If you arent sure, head over to the pool and check out all the other tattooed people.

Of course! I didn't even know it was a problem in some parts of the world. Never had this issue in China though. The only problem i had was to give blood, they refused my blood because i had a tattoo the first time, not the second... strange!!

A:1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look over the Internet with "Requirements for an English teaching job in China" in search for more details.You could also look at the guidance titled "How to use an Internet, search engines in particular ..." for more in-dept knowledge. 3. As you can see from no. 2,, main requirement for an ET job in China is holding of a native English passport (UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and S. Africa), no different than anywhere else in the world. 4. Non-English native passport holders qualify for an ET job in China only if they hold BA degree completed in the native English country.However, most recruiters and hiring managers in China aren't aware of that exemption, so if you hold a degree from one or two native English countries, I suggest you include that into Introduction letter. Good lucky! P.S.Application for the NASA's Moon-to-Mars Program at the Cape Canaveral is less stringent than applying for an ET job as a non-native Englisher ...That of course, is an opinion of a non-English native teacher with lengthy English teaching experience in several different countries.  -- icnif77
