Posted on: China Fruit and Pre-Marital Sex
June 23, 2008 at 8:37 PMI just started listening to the Dear Ambers and it is really fun.
On the sex situation- I am a college(ish) aged american and have spent fairly significant amounts of time in a couple Chinese cities- Kunming, Beijing, Qingdao. My impression is that, at least among upper or upper middle class chinese college students pre-marital sex is fairly common. Chinese friends that I am close to consistenly give me the impression that having sex in college in big cities is the norm, not the exception.
Obviously my personal impressions of sex in China could be very different from actual reality, but I suspect this podcast is seriously underestimating the number of sexually active young people in Chinese cities.

August 24, 2009 at 9:37 PMI rarely post. I just wanted to say that I appreciated this lesson. I would enjoy more lessons on Chinese literature... My literary Chinese isn't good enough to read something lik Sanguo Yanyi or Honglou Meng, but I like these sorts of introductory discussions.
Good job! Thanks.
