Exercise 3 - Observing CULTURE of different people...

Today Robert ask us to find 5 persons after lesson and try to "guess" their personal culture by using theory.. Then i had took the following pictures in the MTR( Although Robert ask us not to do so... because i afraid that i will forget what they wore)


This girl is wearing a suit set..White shirt and black suit skirt with black high heels. I think she is a professional and working in financial area. Her face is quite young, and has long light brown hair. Besides she also got a LV bag, but a simple detail one. Usually younger girls would like the more simple cutting one and mature women would like to choose detailed and delicate one.
As a result, i think this girl is about 24-25 years old and her family is in middle class (due to the LV Bag).
The second one is a foreign woman, wearing black blouse ( a little bit see through) and pink pants.

Although she is quite pound, i guess her is not American...she may from British or other European country. Because she has got some accessories like necklace, rings..which are made of crystal/ stones. She painted her toes nails in red, her finger nails in white. ..According to my personal daily observation, most American are less willing to spend time on "beautify" themselves so always wear simple. On the other side, Europeans are relatively fashionable.

I think she is about forty something...middle class, living in Hong Kong...because she is quite familiar with Hong Kong's MTR station network. I saw her sleep in the train, but most visitors will be looking around and concern where to get off. Moreover, she is traveling Ma On Shan line and get off in Shek Mun station...As i know there are no hotel in there.

The third one is this girl in front of me. I think she is about 22, She is obviously from Mainland...except speaking Mandarin, her dressing also reflect the culture of her nation.

The 1st point to focus is her shirt. Women from Mainland love to wear shirts anytime (usually match with suit pant or A line skirt which is dull color ); while most Hong Kong ladies preferred shirts only in working days.Moreover, she matched this shirt with a gray tight and mini pullover and a gray A line skirt as well. Hong Kong girls were seldom wear same-same color on their bodies.

One supplementary point is...i'm sorry to focused on her armpit...i saw some hair there... This is also what Mainland girls is different from Hong Kong's - even go out with boyfriend (next to the girl in above photo), they will not clear their armpit and do not think this is a matter.
