    How would you react?

    So Chinese new year will send bzillions of Chinese tourists into Thailand and if you're there they are likely to be unavoidable although the last two years I was there and barely noticed them. Anyway, it is rare but some Chinese (always women) think it's OK to jab you in the back with their finger if you're in their way. This is not gentle, trust me it hurts and leaves you in a state of shock. So, I am curious what would/will you do?

    it is rare but some Westerners (always men) think it OK to turn and shout "F**k off" aggressively which leaves the jab-er in a state of shock, so we now have two people in a state of shock based solely on racial stereotyping

    so, I am curious, what should we do in this situation?

    Difficult to know what bbkguy means with his answer but there's no racial stereotyping if it happened and by only one nation. Sglad, I think your suggestion is unnecessarily unpleasant.

    I know there are many nightmare stories of mainland Chinese tourists in L.O.S. and I live in Pattaya but the few I see are walking in a group and after many problems they and the buses that carry them are not very welcome anymore as for what I would do.....Anyone not just Chinese that jab me in the back will be jabbing the wrong guy....they better not!

    Yes. So what would you do? It;s only been Chinese and it's only been women.

    I live in Bangkok, have seen increasing numbers of Chinese in recent years but have never been jabbed anywhere - a gentle grope on the Skytrain by a cute student would be met with a smile, though

    A jab in the back would be met with a fast about-turn and a glare. If the offending finger was in evidence, I would grab it as though intending to break it. Assuming the woman's husband might be around, I'd then be prepared to run - fast!

    Maybe it's just you Arsenal - maybe you just look as if you liked to be poked?
