I am getting a suspicion that someone just peeled off and swapped the M and F, which would explain the poor alignment…

… although it would imply that “female” was originally printed under the Chinese male, therefore it may have been an attempt at a fix instead of a prank.

@ algernon: It must be one of those “imperialist running dogs”.

OK, I take back my comment from yesterday. Looks like someone over there is a joker.

On the other hand, those urinals look pretty low to the ground, so maybe this restroom is only for bald-headed little guys who hold their pinkies up to the corners of their mouth.

@Stopchicks: I don’t think it is a joke. I think the following happened:
– Hey Cheng, a tourist told me that the English translations have been swapped. We should fix this.
– Hmm, I don’t know any English at all. In Chinese, we would only need to swap the first characters, so this will also work in English, right?

On memales yams and yachts.

This bloke had been on a desert island for years since he was a boy, and had never seen a female. One day a yacht full of female yachties arrived on the island.

One lady thinking this will be a novel experience, decides to show him what sex is. Meanwhile, her companions, having been ‘drummed up” on what was about to ensue, watch from behind the bushes, trying to suppress their giggles.

When they have finished, she says: “How was that?”

He says: ‘Great! But look what it has done to my yam digger.”

Am I the only one here that’s bothered by the fact that the bathroom doors are made of glass and that there are no sinks in either restrooms?
