The Chinese are rude, dirty, ignorant of those around them..
What ignorant bullshit.
The rude, dirty ignorant ones are idiots like you posting here.
I have spent a fair amount of time in China- from the north to the south and I have never been treated rudely- EVER- in China by Chinese.
The people in China are not obsessed with cleanliness as we are here, and yes- I would love it if they would clean the damn toilets more often, but they aren't dirty, and they are as educated as most Americans.
The level of ignorance and bigotry here at USMB still amazes me.
Ignorant bullshit huh? You know nothing about me to know whether it's ignorant or not.
You've spend "a fair amount of time in China", what's a fair amount? A few months?
You've been to the north and the south, wow, amazing. I've been to the north, the south, the east and the west. I think I trump you there. You base all of what you say off of your limited personal experience in China.
But I can prove EVERYTHING I say.
The Chinese are rude.
Even the Chinese govt is dealing with this. This is especially rampant among the new rich Chinese.

"Not only are the Chinese bemoaning their rudeness at home and abroad, the government has responded with new rules that took effect this week, aimed at keeping loutish travelers in check."
In Switzerland they made a train just for Chinese tourists.

"A mountain resort in Switzerland will run special trains for Chinese tourists, after receiving a litany of complaints about "rude" Asian travelers, authorities said."
Why are Chinese tourists so rude?
What the Chinese think
"
Why are Chinese tourists so rude?"
"They are seen as pushy, loud, impolite, unruly, and they are everywhere."
"A Chinese man who was recently vacationing at a Maldives resort flipped out after discovering that the restaurant where he wanted to eat was fully booked, Wang said. He yelled threats and slurs at Chinese staff until one member was in tears."
"“You cannot reason with these kinds of people,” Wang said. “They think they can do anything with their money.”"
"Apparently taking photos on campus was not enough. Some camera-toting Chinese would also stride into libraries and take photos without the permission of students, according to media reports."
I could go on all day.
Here are some personal experiences.
I went to Turpan in Xinjiang. I went of a self made tour with two Japanese and one Chinese Canadian (born in China), and it was the Chinese Canadian who had to go touch everything, typical Chinese. They were touching a 1,000+ year old wall in a very hot desert that was basically crumbling away. The Japanese and myself didn't touch it, we didn't feel the need and could probably see it was old and needed respecting.
Getting off the subway? Well, you'll have Chinese people pushing and shoving to get on the subway train before you get off. Irritating as hell. They do the same in elavators. The elavator comes close to the floor, they'll be standing right in the entrance, regardless of whether they know everyone is going to get off or not. And then when the door opens and they're confronted by 10 people waiting to get off, they'll push on anyway.
The Chinese are dirty.
Oh, where do I start? Picking noses, EVERYWHERE. Sat on a plane from China, next to me was a middle aged man digging in his nose for maybe 10 or 20 minutes.
I went on a sleeper bus, for my sins, you have to take your shoes off and go in socks or barefoot. The guy next to me was spitting on the floor. I basically told him (without words) that he was as disgusting as anything.
Spitting happens in a lot of places, in elevators, anywhere really.
Children peeing and pooing anywhere.

They throw rubbish anywhere and everywhere. You go to natural places, I went to one called nine dragons pool. The people would just throw their rubbish into the countryside. One girl was coming down the mountain and said "don't bother, there's nothing at the top", yeah, nothing except the whole of nature, but they don't care about nature.
The Chinese don't care about those around them.
Well the spitting, the wanting photos with waiguorens and louwais and just coming up and sitting by you and having their photo taken without even asking.

Want fresh air, just open the door. Who cares if your flight will be delayed by two hours, hey?
Scooters. Oh my god scooters. How many times have I nearly been hit by the idiots who ride these things. You can have a scooter lane right next to the sidewalk, and they'll be riding their scooter on the damn sidewalk.
Sitting on the bus. They'll always take the outside seat, no matter what, and force people to squeeze in to get into the seat by the window.
Again, I could go on all day.
If you think this is ignorance, then you're keeping your head away from the sun.
