Buzzword:

"Girls of prey". The term refers to women who chase men all the time, expressing their affection for them once they have the target. As the opposite of "dry-matter" females, girls of prey actively seek companions. Their targets tend to be herbivore men who are passive, sluggish, unwilling to shoulder responsibility and fearful of being hurt.

Culture:

Located 60 km southwest of Hezhou city in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, Huangyao ancient town is surrounded by three rivers and oddly shaped peaks. With mountains, caves, temples, pavilions, old trees and tablets, every corner of the town illustrates a typical Chinese scene. The town is known as "hometown in dreamland". Covering an area of 3.6 square km, Huangyao Town is about 1,000 years old. It was first built in the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), and reached its prime in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
