Now I know my question is impertinence in west country ,and I feel very sorry to everyone,espeacially to Nic.Thank you all!You have taught me a significative lesson.I promise I will pay more attention to my saying in the future.And I hope you can forgive my ignorance.In my mind,you're my friends,just like my sisters.
Yes, as long as we honestly and earnestly try to understand each other and clear up misunderstandings, there is no reason people can't get along. I'm glad you were able to help us understand where Solar's question came from. We completely took it in a different way then intended!!!
Ditto! Also...it's good that we can discuss different issues and help each other to understand each other's cultures without falling out.
well i get cultural difference but just so you know i think since, in america everyone is succeptable to being stalked....celeberties are more than a 100 times more succeptable this is probably why your question just felt ultra creppy so us americans have learned this is ok in other parts of the world and you have learned that not in the US especially hollywood hell even i have had a stalker in the very rural area i live in still nothin but love 4 u
i am not going to insisting on this. but i think this question is totally different from what some Mrs. quoted. it is not a question offending personal privacy, not a question of obscenity, which i said, totally different from some of you left on the board.
i view this question is at the level as " what is the color of your eyes" or "do you prefer coffee or tea", or "is swimming your favorite sport?" questions like those, not "what size of your underwear?", or "how much do you come?" i hate to say this,but just an instance...
i''m not familiar with some of the cultures you came from, i even don't know which specificly are they, that's true, but my western friends in Europe, when we communicate, we don't suffer same problems. we happliy change information as long as it is without an offending intention.

I simply adore our Solarwing but to tell you the truth, the question about what blood type Nic is threw me for a 'loop'. However, since you say it is a perfectly acceptable question to other cultures, then I apologize if I have hurt Solar's feelings with my comment.
Good to see you back, btw!
Thanks Bella, you are so nice.^_^ I sometimes made mistakes and am not sure if i would keep myself away from the new mistakes(though i am doing my best). so you and the ladies please kindly help debbie out.^_^I am sure you will, right? making mistakes by mistake and then correcting them are always the things we are doing, through which we learn more and get to know each other.

Hi my dear ladies, Bella, Lesley,Tiger, Darcy ,Cagefactor ,Cagedin and Solar etc. I am back. Miss you guys so much.^_^
Here our Solar asked a question which is acceptable to Chinese People but impolite to those friends out of China. So comunication works here and get us friends from different cultures together in Cagefactor. Is that right?^_^
It is a long way to learn to bridge the culture gap and it takes us patience. Thanks you guys kind help to let us on the trip more easy.
I totally agree, that's creepy to ask! I mean we all love Nicolas Cage as much as we can without actually knowing him. But blood type, why would you need to know that? If someone found out my blood type without me openingly giving it to them, it would be very creepy to me. It is very personal information. If he needs a kidney or something, maybe you should ask then.
We are friendly but lets face it...there are some questions about Nicky and his private life that shouldn't be asked let alone answered! It's one thing to admire Nicky and his work and even make the occasional friendly comment about his private life but to ask what the man's blood type is seems strange...next you'll be wanting to know the man's sperm count for goodness sake!
