Editing Cultural Encounters

'''GENERAL ADVICE:'''

* You can expect personal questions from anyone and everyone.  People will ask about your age, marital or partner status, children, education, career, religion, physical health, your body (e.g., weight, hair, breasts, bottom, skin color), the type of birth control you take, etc.  How honest your answers are is up to you.  It is often to your advantage not to be 100% honest, though.  For example, certain situations will call for you to say that you are married or at least travelling with a man even if that is not the case.  Another example is you may want to be more "modest" about your education or “inflate” your education depending on how that status will affect your interactions with others.  You can avoid answering or "lying" by saying that you prefer not to answer a personal question, but sometimes avoidance can create a negative vibe or confusion.
