Speaking of 美女 (beautiful woman), a friend recently told me that 美女 has taken the place of 小姐 in many parts of China.

I know that 小姐 can have a negative connotation (i.e. prostitute), but can anyone in China confirm 美女?  My friend said you could use it casually, even with a stranger.  I know in the states, if I went up to a woman stranger and said "Hi beautiful woman", that she'd slap me silly!

I could have used a picture of the penguin but she looked nicer. ;)

I could have used this one but there's no obvious 腾讯 connection in the picture. :P

I am not familiar with 腾讯 at all... I followed the link under the picture and read a couple of lines, not that I quite now yet where that story is heading;) on the banner at the top of the page: can anyone explain to me what  

型不型

你说了算

means ? Just a random question.

The article seems to an interview.
