Importation

Top article in the Culture section of the newspaper the other day was an article about the rise in the sale of used schoolgirl underwear in Taiwan.

中古貨通常都要洗過,以示乾淨,但「二手貼身私物」相反,它強調:有人穿過、沒有洗過、保留氣味,等於是「二手物件、一手體味」。

為了證明它們曾經親近芳澤,拍賣者還隨拍賣訊息,刊載穿戴拍賣衣褲、襪子的照片,但見女體擺出撩人姿態,穿戴貼身物件,以取信購買者。

三年前,台灣開始有人引進「二手制服」營業方式,並且有不少客人,透過免付費二手雜誌成交,其中還不乏男同性戀者,指定只要男人穿過的衣物,且收購價格遠高過異性,有的還特別指定要「軍、憲、警」人員。

I swear, if the Japanese decided that jumping off cliffs was a good idea everyone in Taiwan would be splattering himself all over the ground within six months. Come to think of it that might not even be so bad, compared to used-panty-addicts.
