“Don’t ask foreigners their age, marital status, income, past experience, address, personal life, religious beliefs or political beliefs, it says.”

By “personal life” we assume that they mean “sex”. I wonder what people in China (or Taiwan) for that matter, think of such advice. Could be along the lines of “What do you talk about then?”

This is the more reasonable advice. For the lowdown on what and what not to wear, say, and do, read it online here:
