what is the first thing a Chinese girl does when she sits in public? She crosses her legs. Bad etiquette according to the queens etiquette advisors. Evidently it draws attention to the fact that she is covering something up. So girls should always sit with their knees together? Franck3
many sit with their legs apart, no complaints from me, where is my pair of sunglasses
ambivalentmace:
corrected, thanks frank, to much johnny walker blue and short skirts around here.
Better etiquette than sitting spread eagle in a miniskirt.
Franck3:
you are like most idiots on here. Must find some kind of dirty minded remark. Who said anything about a girl sitting spread eagle. I was just stating a fact. Franck3

Franck3, are you blind, or just stupid? Pretty much everywhere in China, you'll see a plethora dumb young girls sitting like I described. My point was that it'd be much better if those girls crossed their legs. Virtually nobody in today's world considers crossed legs to be "bad etiquette". Monarchs are the last remnants of a bygone era where genes determined social status. Notice how your question got 9 downvotes and 0 upvotes. Take it as a sign that you're doing something wrong.
What Queen? The Queen of China?
The dictator of the world's humans?
I don't think British etiquette rules apply in China. If politely crossing legs is a problem, I suppose the spitting, farting and public urination must cause unbearable stress.
bayuvar139:
Exactly!!!! why should China again adhere to British rules they had to do this long enough and, the Queen means nothing to them.
Franck3:
What has your comment have to do with my statement? Franck3
Franck3:
You are probably right. But I have no experience in the farting etc in China after spending over a year there???
It's fine - even in London, where I'm from, the rule doesn't apply so much anymore . Good on the girl for crossing her legs and respecting herself.
That doesn't sound like bad etiquette to me. I do it all the time and so do many people I know who are from all over the place.
They wouldn't have to cross them if it weren't for you looking, Frank.

See, this is what happens when old people are allowed to use the internet. They yell at kids to get off their e-porch.
In what country?
nevermind:
No, it's just not the 50s and someone who wasn't ignorance would know that such edtiquette changes from country to country. You're that same Irvine Welsh wanker, aren't you?
In what country? America? Everyone crosses their legs in America. I do it to avoid people gazing upon the foreign penis when I wear shorts. In China, all the women complain about me crossing my le——OH!!! OH! *moment of clarity*

I'm a grower, not a shower. I am also not a bath. Anyway, I give the guy who cuts pineapples good money to buy the long thick middle part. I figure I might as well stuff myself with fruits, healthier than using wood for my wood.
Franck3:
We are talking about girls here not a guy with a two inch weeny.
Who cares what the Queen thinks.? Take all those grandiose ideals and Royalty and remove them. No real purpose in life. Those ideals mainly apply to the Queen, who would want to peek?
Franck3:
But the American public can't get enough of the Brit royalty. They looked upon the Kennedy's as royalty. Why I have no idea. Joe Kennedy made his money running booze so they make him ambassador to England.
TedDBayer:
The Americans think like I do of the Queen. The Presidents don't make public appearances like Kennedy did and that was 50 years ago.
I'm from America and it's very normal for girls to cross their legs.... infact I've always thought that that was proper etiquette.
Just a good example of how different countries have different cultures and standards, what you think is normal in the UK doesn't appear to be normal in the rest of the world and in many cases it's the opposite.
t91camp:
British social superiority died along with the Empire, Frank. Might want to check your calendar.
Franck3:
Yes there is, I am civilized and was taught good manners from birth.
GuilinRaf:
For someone who was "taught good manners from birth" you have yet to show any...
They spit, piss and shit in public on the streets and you picked up on "they cross their legs"? Seriously?!?! Of all the things you could say about Chinese etiquette (or lack of), your issue is with the way they cross their legs?
This just proves your a crazy troll. And what's with signing your name at the end? We know who posted it, your name and avatar are at the side. xunliang
Are you sure you're not a wumao, Franck3? I mean seriously, the only people who complain about anyone crossing their legs are Chinese people, lol. Combined with being born after World War 11, I gotta wonder if there's something funny about you. Hulk
Maybe she would not have the need to cross her legs if you were not leering at her?
You may want to try to be more subtle. Sunglasses help...
Franck3:
You people are so stupid. What have I got to do with the Queens etiquette? I just stated that girls crossing their legs is bad etiquette according to the queens advisors. You all seem to miss the point. No one is talking about me looking up a girls skirt. Just as I expected. Franck3
Hulk:
Franck3, you call us prime assholes and ask really dumb questions, but you think we're the idiots/assholes? Take a look at your posts. The only idiot here is you. Hulk
GuilinRaf:
Well Frankie III, if you just stopped leering at them, then they would not have the need to cross their legs.
As to "stupid" I suggest you take a look at yourself first.
By the way, you live in California yet you leer up girls skirts in China? Wow! You are amazing!
you can stop trying to pass as a foreigner. your teacher taught you wrong.
Franck3:
I think not. At least I got taught, you obviously had no mentor.
