| mmm... just a comment about Taipei, as your friend mentioned... I have lived in Taipei for several years now and you can find girls walking late late at night on the street and they don't encounter any danger at all. I've never heard of any girl being scared to go home late at night alone in this city, even more so if they have a scooter. I have a feeling that what your friend told you is the exception because it is definitely not the norm. Taipei is almost mystifyingly safe, that is I don't know how the news gets enough crime stories each day to fill the evening news... |
