Restaurant in China Helps Identify Prostitutes
You would think that if you were a prostitute you would know it, but one poor establishment has had to go to go to great lengths to help inform unknowing call girls that they are indeed prostitutes… and that they are not welcomed.
Zapata’s Mexican Cantina, a bar and restaurant in Shanghai, China, states it clearly in their sign that “if you are unsure whether or not you are a prostitute, please ask one of their friendly security guards to sort it out for you.”
Thanks ‘El Patron’, for making my nights a little more lonely.
Lol Wow they tell you to ask a security guard if you’re not sure o.o I bet the security guards sleeps with the ones who ask
Wow that is amazing. Is there that much of a prostitution problem in China?
Yes, it’s a huge problem. That and the general lack of knowledge about STDs and contraception has helped create an AIDS epidemic.
That just has to be a really bad translation!
They probably mean to say, “…If you are unsure whether or not you are WITH a prostitute…” That way the security guards can help you from some *honest* mistake.
Em….. i think that is not true. the chinese language part does mean ‘if you are unsure your identity (whether or not you are a prostitute), please ask our security guards for help.’
The translation is wrong, all its saying is if you have questions to ask the employees.
Who writes this stuff anyhow??
no? i can read chinese and it says “if you are unsure of your identity”
I can read Chinese and it clearly states “if you can read this, you must be Chinese.” Damn gringos, learn a furrin language or something.
I bet you the commenter above me, with the name “Chinese person”, is in fact not chinese. His comment also does not make sense, he should learn a language or something.
It is translated correctly. The sentence starting in the 4th line translates roughly to “If you are unsure of your own identity, …”
ahh~~~ this is very interesting. to me, it somehow looks like an advertaisment. emm…. does it *actually* means that ‘we have our own hookers and competitions are not welcomed’?
this is just for advertisement so they can get more customers more american men with lots of cash will know where to go or the area.
Surely it’s obvious…..
Any local girl with a Western man is obviously a prostitute. Because as we all know, Western men only ever travel to Asia as sex tourists. Far be it from reasonable consideration that a Western man might choose to live and work in Asia. And it is completely inconceivable that a Western man might form friendships with local ladies who are not prostitutes, but are in fact doctors, and engineers, accountants etc.
So make sure you don’t let them bring their whore mistresses into your establishment. You are quite justified in treating such ladies like the trash that they obviously are…….
Yes indeed the staff of these most saintedly moral establishments are such a good judge of these circumstances.
Don’t call me Shirley
“Any local girl with a Western man is obviously a prostitute.”
Great generalization GA. if I am an asian and my man is an american does that make me “obviously a prostitute”?
generalizing all girls just because some of them are prostitutes are the most idiot way of thinking I’ve ever see…
“What?? I’m a prostitute? And here I just thought all my many boyfriends just had really holey wallets!’
I wonder if any of you has the phone number of the woman in the photo?
Thanks!
ahem…
This Restautant may be doing these girls a favor. It may be a wake up call and they may just change because of it, I sure hope so. Prostitution is one of the biggest waist of womanhood and I am on the owner’s side. For a female to sell herself to anyone is just another form of slavery and the only one that benifits from it is the low life Pimp.
Aside from all that they help in the spread of every STD you can imagine. To some this is just a laugh until some you know has the disease or catch it yourself and then it’s no laughing matter.
These girls are also adding to our already outragious healthcare costs because their victims, oh I’m sorry “customers”, go to public clinics paid for by OUR taxes or to an ER and never pay the bill,,,again causing us, U.S., tax payers to foot the bill through higher insurance rates and some morons think it’s funny. Sad isn’t it.
curious as to where you get your “facts” from
US taxes…we are about China. Go sit in a corner.
Oh my antenna gone…oh no its right down here, maybe if i wiggle it around i’ll get more service
Love the corporate sarcasm.
China has LOADS of hookers. Just stay in Guangdong for a couple weeks trapped in a hotel…..they are everywhere waiting for western business men.
“I’m gonna build my own amusement park. But with gambling and hookers! Ah, forget the amusement park.”
Chinese need to learn: A Mexican cantina with no pick-up girls around is no Mexican cantina… steer clear from bad imitations!!!
funny thing: zapata’s is a very popular bar with the expats/ english teachers in shanghai. i hate personally never seen any prostitudes there although you see them almost everywhere around shanghai. dont mess with zapata’s (free tequilla every night in the weekend), or i will mess with you!. be warned.
what?! zapata’s has loads of prostitutes. wait until 2 am. usually it seems like you a picking up a normal girl- then it is do you want to got to hotel?
Heh, I actually ate there back in 2001, their food was pretty decent.
As for prostitutes, yeah it’s a major problem in Shanghai. When going out for drinks or to a club I was warned not to even casual talk to girls who approach you. They may try to charge you a talking fee for just doing that, and if you refuse you get hussled by their pimp.
It better nowadays compared to back in 2001, regardless though, you still see it all over Shanghai.
(if you would like to see taller girls go to Beijing =P )
I have been there during a holiday, they were all over the place. I thought it was pretty easy to tell.
I wonder why it just “hit the news” now…i think this sign has been up for months, if not years?
I love being Mexican <3
as a chinese man, I think it’s no problem to find ur object in street, so much rooms which docorated as “洗浴房“and “足疗”,especially KTV and recreational guild, are the right place to find ur girl .hehe…..
have interesting ,let me tell u more about it, my email :mplj1111@yahoo.com.cn
