OK - fair enough/balanced reply for which I am grateful.
First thing first, please do note that I am NOT trying to start a flame war or anything - but you had originally asked a question and when replied to then took the discussion towards the idea that it is de-rigeur to slowly chit chat, check out, bargain and at leisure set parameters for the "encounter." The OP/Aznlover specifically asked about the etiquette/modus operandi when going up to Walk-ups, and whilst you started off asking a question, you then proceded to start suggesting that all you outlined is not only possible, but also should be how to act when going to WG's
This is Hong Kong - and I'd think that since you're already a 36 YO and an ABC who can speak all those Chinese languages AND presumably have already read a few of the threads here - that you'd already visited/quite familiar with Hong Kong and should know that there is no way that these Walk-up gals are even going to entertain the thought of dilly-dallying with what you are suggesting is possible to do. These gals do multiple guys a day and open their doors a hundred times - what, they're gonna let you in and then discuss your requirements? Like I said - Get Real!
I object to your conjectures being masqueraded as facts - specifically when its central to the question being asked by the OP. Yes, OK to ask questions - but not when you then direct the discussion towards cuckoo-land.
OK?
Thanks

edit - and when is it that I wrote/even hinted that it's OK to ask them to show/parade in their outfits? And PLEASE - your statement "... even in the U.S..." what's it got to do with what's being discussed about Hong Kong?? Oh I forgot - U.S.A. the Great!
