Topic1 Weird English names Chinese people give themselves The Washington Post has carried an opinion piece on its website saying the adoption of unconventional English names in China and other parts of East Asia is the source of perennial fascination and mirth among expats.

The article mentioned a humorous report on a satirical Chinese Web site done in the style of China's state broadcaster CCTV that offers advice to Chinese on how to choose their English names.

It says any young Anglophone who teaches English in the region could rattle off a host of perplexing names he or she had to call out during class.

Is it a valid concern? Is it true many Chinese have weird English names?

Topic2 Is Cheating OK?

Men are tired so it is OK for them to cheat. This slogan is printed on boards which are held by 6 guys in a so-called performance art activity in Chengdu recently. They all wear sunglasses and facial masks during the performance and claim they want to justify men who are busy but can't get enough care and love.

Is it OK to cheat?

Topic3 Mistress Terminator Many marriage counselors would receive customers whose other half is having an affair. Usually, the counselors just help their customers by engaging in conversations with them.

However, some marriage counselors in Chongqing seem to think talking is not effective enough. So they approach the mistresses and try to end the affairs using different strategies.

Is there a need for such kind of service?

Topic4 Unisex Public Restrooms were Set up in Shanghai Many moms who have sons and dads who have daughters may have experienced such an embarrassment when taking their children out alone: the mom or the dad wants to go to the restroom but no one could take care of the child, while it is not appropriate to bring the boy or the girl into the female or the male public restrooms because others may feel annoying.

Shanghai is trying to solve the problem by building up unisex public restrooms in many public areas. The unisex public restrooms are equipped with toilets both for men and women, even another set of mini toilet for children.

Is it necessary to set up such restrooms?
