I love Shanghaiist. If you have never been to their site and are a Sinophile like I am, hie thee to their site right away.

Today there are two headlines that made me laugh out loud, The first:

Survey: China is the World’s Fourth ‘Horniest’ Country

The survey was done by AskMen, China is the fourth horniest country. Who’s first? Greece. I suppose they grew tired of the Occupy Greece movement and moved on to Occupy Vagistan. Here’s what AskMen has to say about China:

“Just in the past eight years, 5,000 sex shops have opened in Beijing alone. Plus, China even has a SEXPO, where Chinese residents come to check out sex paraphernalia.”

I don’t want to bust anyone’s condom but Australia also has a SEXPO and it didn’t make the Top Ten. (FYI: Australian SEXPO is next week!)

But all in all, China’s fourth place ranking makes me wish I was 30-years younger.

The second headline that made me laugh:

Chinese Museum Forced to Close after 40,000 Fakes Discovered

Now if you know anything about China it’s that it is famous for turning out fake products. But a museum with 40,000 fakes items is mind-boggling.

“Highlights include a wucai (five-colour) porcelain vase purported to be from the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) when in fact that the artistic technique was invented hundreds of years later in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 AD). Another giveaway was an item signed by an emperor who reigned between 2696 to 2598 BC – that’s more than 3,000 years before the writing system was even invented.”

If the museum got together with SEXPO, it could churn out 40,000 fake breasts. Now that should shoot China to number one of some survey.
