HK Dave reports that Chongqing has decided its biggest tourist attraction is its women, and that they have a special slimming regiment.:

To paraphrase, of course, the chorus of the famous Beach Boys tune. I have read, shall we say, with interest, that the city government has declared their women the city’s top tourist attraction. Apparently the Sichuan babes from Chongqing (yes that’s Chungking for you Nationalists and HK Indian food-lovers) trumped the city’s other major export - oops, I mean attraction, Sichuan hotpot.

I mean, I have heard from everyone that’s been there that the city is an ugly place, but I do find it strange that the city government would declare open season on its own women for legions of domestic tourists, many with a penchant for whoring. Allow me to quote in closing for the city’s explanation of why their women are the hottest:

The city’s climate and migrant background have made it a place famous for beautiful women, the paper said. High humidity and cloudy skies are good for their skin, while the bumpy roads and spicy food help to shape their slim figures, it said.

See Chongqing, we have beautiful women and bumpy roads!

Singaporean men who are too desperate for the government’s Single Desperate & Ugly Social Development Unit’s matchmaking service have also been known to favor Chongqiing.
