Those of you with an eye for the news are no doubt aware of the current protests in Hong Kong. J.Smith has certainly been keeping an eye on things and recommended we look at what’s going and some of the ladies involved.
Hong Kong residents have taken to the streets in protest against the electoral reform proposed by the mainland. After enjoying democracy while under British rule, the HK residents can now choose between up to three electoral candidates nominated by the central government. Is this real democracy?
The protests began on September 22nd, and on the 26th they moved into the forecourt of the Central Government Complex, occupying the public space and preventing public servants from going to work. On September 28th they blocked the two main roads in northern Hong Kong island, and subsequently troops moved in with rubber bullets and tear gas to move the protestors on.
Whatever the rights or wrongs of any of this, when the leader’s daughter makes comments like these, I am not surprised some people have taken things to heart.

Pic #7: 10,000 assholes building in background, right? Sorry, an architecture fan as well as a fan of Asian girls.

This is a terribly disrespectful article.

Good choice guys who’d ever think a protest would be a place to score chicks

So cute and so very brave to confront the communist party.

Dr Lee,
I don’t like the idea of objectifying women at a protest for democratic rights. When women are modeling with the intent to be seen (Playboy, JAV, etc), it’s fine but when everyone is looking at a protest and just pointing out the asian hotties, then you’re really missing out on the motivation of the actual protesters. It’s marginalizing and I don’t think it’s right. I love this site, and I’d rather see the “hot asians of the import car show”, rather than the “hot asians at a protest for electoral reform”.
Discussing the actual point of the protest and political points is fine, just not something I’d expect on this site.

Jillian, I am the the person who suggested the Hong Kong protest post. I deeply regret any feelings of disrespect you may have derived from the post. I can assure you Asian Women have my greatest respect. I do notice if a girl is hot, but that in no way detracts from the incredible courage the protesters are displaying. I think Boston tea party or Selma March when I see the protest.
