No Spitting BACK TO DATE PAGE
I took this picture in a Shanghai subway station.

No Spitting?
I'd read about widespread public spitting before I came here, so I was somewhat prepared for watching where I step on the sidewalk.

And it's not just the guys.  I've seen little old ladies and sweet young things hawk a gob quite openly.

I guess I won't talk about blowing your nose without a handkerchief and just file this away under "culture shock."
