<<I think if SLE had done some research on Chinese culture, they would not have spent big bucks in this kind industry of sexual appeals in China. "Sexy", by no means, is a flatterring word in Chinese culture. If anything, it still has a lot of negative meaning associated with it. In most cases, women are not being viewed as sexual objects in modern China. So there is no "functional" need for Chinese women wear wonder ...<g>. Although that does not mean no market for it, it just won't have a big market as it has in Western culture. FWIW>> Actually as I know Chinese women (upper class) were forced not to let their breasts or feet grow to 'normal' sizes. I don't know if that culture did hurt the genetics :>) I think Asians still like the look of large bust (at least the Phillipinos/Vietnamese/Thais now love normal/large breasts) but no way SLE can compete against local cottage bra industries... Any copyright violation here? :>) I still can not imagine how locals have to pay 100 bucks for a genuine software/products while they can buy a pirated version for 1 buck, while their income are even about 1/10 of non-working people here.
