Our Princeton University Press textbook prides itself on evoking student's interests and increasing conversation by covering some controversial topics.
Haha, controversial, indeed. Monday's chapter was, "The President has a Girlfriend" 总统有了女朋友, yesterday's was a psych-ish piece on lonely children in China, 寂寞的孩子...
Today's was: 中国大学生对性的态度......Chinese university students' attitudes about sex. Basically, the overarching theme was, sex is absolutely forbidden. Ha - but at least I know how to say "premarital sex," "self-protection," "venereal disease," "knocked up" (aka being pregnant before tying the knot), "virginity," "abortion," and "morals." If that doesn't give you an idea of what the lesson was like, then I don't know what will.
I am so not looking forward to our practicum on Friday when I have to ask my dear, precious, innocent, and extraordinarily naive Caili about her attitude about..."it"
My new home.
