What is this “blame the victim” mentality? I thought that was bad?

Adam, my understanding of the word “honey trap” or sometimes “honey pot” is: a women who seduces a spy / government official / diplomat in order to get information or to black mail him.

Wikipedia has this:

“Honeypot or honeytrap may refer to:

* Espionage recruitment involving sexual seduction in reality or fiction.
* A type of sting operation such as a bait car or … a trap to help fight unauthorized computer access.

Anyway, I’m all for Shanghai Scrap covering the city’s trannie prostitution scene, it’s a good fit with scrap metal, heritage destruction, Catholicism and the US Pavilion etc.

I don’t think there’s much overlap between your and shanghaiist’s readers so I wouldn’t worry about it.

Well, well – it looks like I need to do a better job of scanning Shanghaiist. See above links. They got there first, and I missed it entirely. Way to go, Shanghai Scrap.

Clever Snark – You know you’ve made it when people start comparing you to Joe McCarthy. Awesome. I’m forwarding that around, and pronto. Makes me feel better about screwing up the post.
