    Yep, I’m a woman and I’ve posted here before.

    I still don’t understand where anything about this post talks about China or tea. I’m just trying to make sense of this string of comments.

    ETA: screenshot of the post I see, with context

      Look up the phrase “the price of tea in China”. Then consider that perhaps things that make no sense literally may be an idiom rather than literally meant.

      The clue might also lie with me referring to playing the game “non sequitur”.

        I understood the initial commenter as basically saying they do what they want so long as it’s not immoral, which is a response to the post’s theme of not trying to follow what others tell women to be.

        Which is why your comment felt more like a non-sequitur than theirs did.
