Wuxi Expat English Teacher Ivan Fence came to work without pants last week. In face of stern admonishment from school management, staff and some students, Fence was defiant and said Capitalism was to blame.
"Wearing pants is really a bourgeois conceit, when you think about!" said Fence, who moonlights as a pub socialist spouting his socialist ideology to anyone who will buy him a drink or lend him a cigarette.
In an interview with the editors of Wuxi Socialist, the official magazine of the Wuxi Expat Anarchist Socialist Egalitarian Lesbian Society (WEASELS), Fence continued his harangue: "We are in the People's Republic of China for goodness sakes! None of us should be practicing the so called bourgeois virtues of saving money, wearing underwear, paying off debts, paying off bar tabs, coming to work on time, thinking ahead, coming to work sober, getting married or taking showers! Chairman Mao, Che Gueverra, Barack Obama and Hugo Chavez would be rolling in their graves if they saw us imitating the worse excesses of the bourgeiose!"
