Unable to wash clothes using a washing board is poor life skills? Are they going to accuse him of being non-tech savvy if he cannot use a typewriter?

@anon Actually, she might be able to climb in the financial world. Probably get into private banking as a relationship manager. After all, I doubt she would mind sleeping with her clients to please them.

TVB's actresses quality is reflective of their management's quality. Lousy.

@coralie Well, pretty much every beauty pageant is just a gold digger so you are right. The verdict is not with us but with the panel.

@rika These other pageant winners were stripped of their crown because their were secretly married, pregnant, transgender or pose nude in magazines. Besides do people think Tracy Chu should promote to runner up? or do you think Tracy is even bothered? Do you want me to IG them? Pfft get real! I think it is too extreme people need to back off and give it a rest.

@rika LOL....rubby rubby... haha. That is true thou. It's like where was her hand going? omgosh....Couldn't believe it really in a public taxi of all places. So dense or just plain shameless. My goodness! It's like they can't hardly wait literally.

@rika They could, but that'd mean they should strip Michelle Reis, Anita Yuen, Ada Choi, Shirley Yeung, Queenie Chu and Sire Ma of all their titles, too.

@dimsum5678 "It her title to keeps." ---- Not true. There have been cases globally where pageant winners were stripped off their crowns due to misdemeanors. After all, it was a title "granted" to her so she doesn't exactly own it and really can't do anything if the panel decides to take it back.

@rika My opinion won't do it alone on any issue.Society's mass opinions can change laws and cultures. Why do we now ban capital punishment in many countries? Why is it illegal not to have fire alarm in house? Why is it against the law for kids to not wear seat belts? Not saying that the Japanese culture is wrong yet in this case but my initial opinion based on the article is that it is very uncomfortable.Maybe your mind needs to open up a little bit and accept change if it comes rather than use the argument 'it's culture so it's right'. Is burning women at stake for being accused of witchcraft right? Once upon a time,it was a tradition...

@jimmyszeto So? Not like your opinion is significant enough to change an entire country's culture.

@rika Not bothered whether it is traditions or culture. I will still express my own opinion...

@coralie It's called genetic sexual attraction.

@littlefish At least Wayne Lai gets the cultural difference. The rest are just using their personal benchmarks to criticize another nationality's culture.

@rika this! I’m glad someone get it’s a different culture.

Ignorance. The culture in Japan is completely different from HK or China. The concept of mixed public bath (sentou) in Japan has existed since the Edo period. Granted that it may seem weird in the eyes of a Chinese or Westerner that Kitami bathes with her family, it is a pretty normal thing for Japanese families to bathe in an onsen or sentou together.

@hazel Well, IIRC she is managing a cosmetics surgery business so it makes marketing sense to use her company's products and putting forth her face as the ambassador.

Silly, "bankruptcy" is often used as a method to avoid liability repayments. Chances are most of his wealth have been placed under his wife's name or as a different legal entity's assets.

@linda Kaneshiro Takeshi.

@rika Having sex is not a crime neither are taking provocative pictures or videos. Or am I missing something here? What is the problem exactly? Enlighten me please. I guess you think Tang Wei is f**king stupid for doing an award winning movie with an Oscar-winning director that ultimately got herself banned from working in mainland China? If you don't then you're a hypocrite. What IS f**king stupid is shaming people's individual choices that are neither evil nor unethical instead of the irrational public reaction and victim blaming. The fact that this can 'damage one's career' says more about the stupidity of our society and culture than about her intelligence. I don't see Tony Leung's career burn up in flames after "Lust, Caution" so why should any victim of leaked nudes be scrutinized by people like you? I guess sex and nudity is only okay for you when it's made to be consumed by the public and not when it's supposed to be private between two people? Logic.

@rika You are blaming the victim. It may not have been a decision that you or I would have done, but it isn't her fault that those images were stolen and distributed. This outrage should be placed on the thieves that mentally raped all those who had their privacy violated.
