How are customs different in Taiwan and Mexico?
Taiwanese culture is a blend of Confucianist Han Chinese, Japanese, European, American, and Taiwanese aborigines cultures while Mexican culture is a mix of Native-American (i.e: Mayan, Aztec), southern European and until very recently, American culture. These cultures have their commonalities, but more often than not, both are completely different:
Taiwanese are superstitious about anything concerned with dying. This means do not write people's names in red, nor point at cemeteries or graves (it shows disrespect for the dead), nor whistle or ring a bell at night (it is an invitation to ghosts).
On the other hand, Mexicans celebrate death, remembering the life of those who have passed away; this takes the form of a celebration that even mocks death itself: Day of the Dead (November 1 & 2) are days for celebration, including people dressing as skeletons and mounting elaborate altars to honor the dead.
Some taboos of Taiwanese culture include:
- Never giving umbrellas to anyone, as it has the same pronunciation as "break up" in Chinese.
- Never give off clocks, as it sounds the same as "to perform the last rites".
- Never offer shoes as a gift (it means sending someone to heaven).
While some Mexican taboos include:
- Topics like sex, politics and anti-church ideas are a huge no-no when talking to a Mexican, unless you are talking to a young Mexican and have a closer relationship with him/her.
- Most Mexicans are Catholic and as such, most of them are deeply religious and conservative in character, specially on small towns and villages.
- If you speak in Spanish you should be aware of where to use tú or usted. When talking to elders or important people, the usted is required; tú is used for children or very close people.

Who does laser hair removal in mazatlan?
After years of nightmare hair removal options, I finally decided to look into permanent hair removal options. My research led me to a consultation at Manhattan's salon. I found a website http://www.hairlaserremoval.co.uk
There are many useful information to me. Thanks to them. At my consultation I wasn't expecting to go under the laser. In fact, I wasn't sure what to expect. My technician, Michelle, was laid-back, confident and attentive. When I asked what the results would look like, she lifted her arm and showed me the most perfect hairless armpit I'd ever seen. Knowing I was
writing an article, she even showed me her bikini line. I was blown away with the possibility of never having to shave again. Step 1: Paper panties
Technician leaves you with paper panties. I was given the paper panties then Michelle left. She came back in and I laid on the table in basically a splayed position (a bit uncomfortable, but then Michelle was so laid back and had showed me HER bikini line so what did I care?). Step 2: Ice cold
Ice cold jelly-like goo is squeezed onto all the soon-to-be-lasered spots. The goo apparently protects skin and offers some sort of barrier from the heated light. Step 3: The laser wand comes out
I had no idea what this looked like until I saw it. Lasers vary, but the one Michelle used on me reminded me of the part of your printer that you attach to your computer. The part that is closest to your skin is about 4 inches long and an inch wide (although they vary). Michelle gave me a pair of sunglasses. Step 4: The procedure begins
Basically Michelle worked along my bikini line. I had asked about the pain and she said it would feel like a rubber band snapping the skin. She was right.
The pain wasn't unbearable at all, nothing like the searing pain of waxing. The laser pulses with light and you feel a 'snap.' She moves along with each 'zap.' Step 5: Clean up
Once the lasering was over, Michelle scooped up the goo, I got dressed and that was it. No need for creams or lotions or potions. Michelle told me the hair would fall out within 2 weeks.
On my way out the door the woman at the reception desk told me I was going to love the results. I left happy and confident she was right. Then the waiting began. Two weeks later, the hair was gone and a new hair cycle had just barely begun to grow in. Hair grows in cycles so you should get about 6 treatments to ensure you kill all the hair follicles. A month after my first treatment I went in for my second. Find out what happened in my 3rd installment of Diary of a Laser Hair Removal Guinea Pig.
Why didn't Mexico recognize the Lone Star Republic?
Because although it has allowed settlements on its land, it was still part of Mexico. No country wants to just give up some of its land voluntarily... especially when it thinks that the people will eventually merge with a neighboring county, as they eventually did.
