Red packets
Ronni was out finally, roaming the streets of Shanghai. As usual, she found her victims in the neighbourhood supermarts right in the smack of this cosmopolitan city.
Yup, it's no longer a myth. Local Chinese DO wear red socks during Chinese New Year a.k.a Spring Festival for luck and prosperity.
Wait, what do I see on the top right corner of that picture? Red underwear?!
Yes, they were selling that too. Seems like this is a quite a popular tradition. Though tried as I might, after asking some local Chinese men, none of them would admit to actually wearing it.
Then again, this is China... you never know....
p/s: To all who asked, yes, all pics taken with my lousy camera phone. Think I should start to plan to upgrade to a better phone. Any sponsors?

The striking lingerie might meant for people who like to play mahjong. There is always this myth about red underwear to ward off bad lucks and attract good ones.
About your phone, a phone is a phone, not a camera. You want to take pics, get a camera.
your bro.
The guy who wears this is not normal.
some haiku for you:
undies so kinky
in the dead of cold winter
red makes me horny
