      If you’re a government worker in a non allied country and an attractive stranger wants to touch your dingle, its a honeypot.

        Same goes for “allied” countries. Since Snowden revealed how the US spied on their “allies” even in the most hideous ways, it should be clear that “allies” dont exist in spycraft.

        As a non government worker who is in a non allied country, I can tell you that lots if people want to touch my dingle. None of them are honeypots because I ain’t got nothing for them.

        Well, besides a dingle that’s statistically much larger than the locals. Many women like that…

        No, its not always a honeypot for government workers either.

      There actually is a legit reason for this. Compromising material on diplomats, soldiers, and their staff are easily acquired this way. For example, creating a secret recording of the the encounter, which then can be used to pressure the target to work for the other side. The Russians love this stuff, I just can’t remember the exact word they use for it. Compromat or something like that. Compromising material.

        Though ironically, this will make it easier for Chinese to blackmail those who get lonely and have relations anyways, since the relations themselves could be used to threaten jobs, rather than needing some extra step to make it scandalous.

        20 year sexual relationship and the dude never figured the woman she had the affair with was actually a dude. Lmao.

        In police custody, Shi explained to doctors how he had hidden his genitals to convince Boursicot that he was a woman. And as the French doctors sent to examine Pei Pu discovered, he could create the appearance of having female genitalia by making his testicles ascend into his body cavity and tucking his penis back.

        One hell of a tuck job
