A
saying of
Cantonese origin:
Somebody who has soft ears is naive, gullible.
"Soft ears are easier to pour lies into."
My mom always says this to me, it frightens me and renders me paranoid as to who I can trust, especially girls. Girls pour lies into your ears and you'll be dancing at their finger tips...
...like a Muppet with Frank Oz's hand up yer arse.
