"Thought Some things about the West you can't explain to Chinese students because they don't make sense -- the simplest language possible is unusable because the Western thing transcends common sense and simplicity".

That is an intriquing thought - can you please give any examples? 

Me:

Try explaining the following to Chinese students:

The difference between Punk and Heavy Metal Music

Why we sit on toilets

Why we have a safety fetish

Why we  are so obsessed by sex

Woody Allen

Roman Polanski

Marxism

Oprah Winfrey

Golf

Baseball

Cricket
