China's prostitutes are better-trusted than its politicians and scientists, according to an online survey published by Insight China magazine. The survey found that 7.9% of respondents considered sex workers to be trustworthy, placing them third behind farmers and religious workers.

Uhhh... ...

...

huh. I can't think of anything funny to say here without getting a warning from Toady or starting a flamewar.

I think it's the same in any country. Kinda why prostitutes would work as spies back in the old days.. people would tell them their secrets and assume them too dumb to know anything.

I guess I can kinda see the sense. But they ranked third. That's pretty high up on the trust scale.

Well, it says they think farmers are more trustworthy.

Doesn't mean they actually are.  :-\

Ahhhh, so he was under McArthur.

I don't find it surprising that they (Chinese people) don't trust religious workers as much. Think about it, this was a hard communist country for forty years.
