In some ways I find HK to be so refreshingly free when it comes to conversation.  It may be because the cantonese culture favors directness and telling it like it is with regards to describing people and situations.  It took me awhile to get over the shock of ppl here using words that have been deemed banned because of political correctness.  Some ppl or situations just cannot be adequately described with the language of political correctness, just too much vagueness.  

Now when I visit N.America I have to take some deep breaths and relax my mind on the plane ride over so that I can prepare myself for that atmosphere of political correctness.  So much mental work is required in N. America.
