Q: When do you think "twerking" will become popular in China?

If you don't think the dance will catch on, how about the "teddy bear" outfit that Miley Cyrus/Lil' Kim wore? It's cute - cute enough for a Chinese girl?

I hope not. Twerking is not an export to be proud of. Whatever happened to demure, classic beauty? Miley Cyrus is selling herself as a piece of flesh who desperately wants "backend" action. It's disgusting. One day when she actually becomes a mature adult she'll look back at her antics in shame.

happywanderer:

Yeah but gazillions a dollars can totally blanket shame.  I'd swing naked on a wrecking ball for what she earns but only da freakz would be interested.

I twerked like crazy in 1992 to the tune of Achy Breaky Heart. It's so last millennium.

Twerking, a Cyrus family tradition?

I have no idea. Sometimes the vodka is talking, after all it is Monday morning or so. But 1992 must have been about the year I started going out to clubs, and who knows what my dance style looked like. (White dude with no good sense of rhythm)

If it did ,No good would come of it. The sad thing is I know the words to Achy Breaky Hart. Just glad there are no Banjo's involved

cooter:

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've sang that song once or twice at the local KTV winkangry

Twerking is just gross. Seriously. It's repulsive as hell.

I seriously hope it never catches on in China.

I just had to google 'twerking', I had no idea what it was. Now I wish I hadn't bothered.

to the anti-twerking crowd. Don't be so judgmental and don't be concerned. Twerking is too much effort for most Chinese to do. Slow movements is the way of the people here.

I just googled it.  looks like girls fkng the air with still a bit of clothes on...  logical progression of the idea of dance I guess.  I'll pass on it though....  sexy stuff appeals to me more in kinda a private way... like a 'secret' shared between two partners...  If it is publicised it just doesn't do it for me.  I went to strip clubs a coupla times when I was in my 20's because it was something us fella's just did. clubs and this kind of 'dancing'  lack the intimacy that I believe gives sexuality it's strongest appeal...   but don't they say each generation does weird things as it is 'finding itself' ?  I use to put tobacco in my mouth and spit.  odd behavior eh ?

For some girls it probably already is.  Depends who you hang with.  Personally I'm not a fan but still prefer it to sa jiao.

i'd prefer a dog to a sa jiao..

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
