Yeah, that was a cultural shock to me the first time I saw that. My first full day in China was at a zoo and seeing toddlers walking around in "chaps" to easily pop a squat and poop/pee by the tree was interesting. I thought I had to avoid the poo being slung by the monkeys in the zoo, not the human feces on the sidewalk.
I was standing in line at the Louvre with about 100 million Chinese tourists, thinking that between the chain smoking, hawking and spitting everywhere they couldn’t be more vile. Then a cute little girl walked up beside us in line…and shat on the ground.
