Chinese bathrooms are the worst things ever. I took a picture a couple of months ago from a bathroom at a truckstop somewhere in Mongolia just to convince unbelievers that I’m not exaggerating.
Whenever you go to somewhere real nice, like a restaurant or something, and you really want to test what the place is like; go to the bathroom and see how clean it is.
Many, many nice restaurants Bella and I have been to have unbelievably dirty bathrooms. Part of the reason is that nobody wants to clean them, so nobody does.
There is also the design of the toiletbowl. Basically it’s a hole in the ground. You have to kind of hover over it and aim. Not many people can, including many Chinese people who you would assume have been doing this their entire lives.
And there is the phenomenon of the country hick, of course. People who were raised in a village and have never learned the kind of behavior that is necessary for making life in a crowded city liveable. You will find discarded used tampons, toilets where somebody’s aim only went into the general direction of the bowl or ones where several people one after the other just didn’t flush.
