From My Paper Journal 6 Weeks Ago

Written during my year-long stint in China.

I almost totally forgot that Chinese people consider American girls sluts until yesterday.  Last night, Greg said his girlfriend asked about my lasciviousness. A while ago, I had called him in a moment of panic, fearing I misled a local boy into thinking that I liked him simply by letting him accompany me on some errands. So I called Greg for his perspective on the matter. I ended up talking to his girlfriend and although I thought the conversation went well, apparently she asked exactly how ‘kai fang’ I was immediately afterwards. And how easily did I give boys “a chance.”

Well, fuck her.
