Truly inappropriate actions convey feelings of disrespect or arrogance such as spitting on/at someone, swearing at someone, laughing at someone, being inconsiderate or impolite, and inappropriate hand gestures.
Some more specific examples can be:
- Giving gifts, presents, namecards, papers, etc with only one hand. (Always give/receive items with both hands.)
- Moving things with feet. (Bend down and move things with your hands. Don't move things with your feet.)
- Pointing the bottom of your feet towards another person.
- Don't touch another person's head. Not even when it comes to children.
- Do not beckon people with your hands or fingers (This is what you do with animals and pets.. not people.)
Some of these may or may not have been passed down from generation to generation. While some might not think twice about some of these things, some will take great offense. But always remember...regardless of race or culture, treat others as you would like to be treated. If you do something 'inappropriate' by accident, people will, more often than not, be able to tell and will inform you of something you may have done that offended them. At which point, apologize and make note not to do so again.
Yes. Howerver, people will say it doesn't count if they benefit from doing so.

While most of YouTube has appropriate content, some people do upload inappropriate videos.
"Inappropriate" is in the eye of the beholder. What is inappropriate to some is not so much or not at all to others. So, what you may find inappropriate really opens up the range of possible answers to why anyone might "make" anything inappropriate.
Either to express their point, get your attention, or sometimes they use gestures to give a better picture or understanding. Other times they are unconsciously aware of it.
Inappropriate aid is when aid is given to people, but they can not utilize that aid because it is inappropriate. e.g. if you were to give a family in the highlands of Nepal a electric oven when the do not have electricity.
Chinese people are Chinese because they have lived and derived from China. That is similar to saying "Why are American people American?".
Because Chinese people are from China and that means that they will obviously have Chinese children.
