Watched the midnight wuxia that plays after The Four on GTV last night.

It is hard to imagine what men and women in ancient China considered as sexy in each other, considering that all of them were swaddled  in robes, and similar robes at that. Was it their faces that made them sexy? Their hair?

I also have yet to see a wuxia in which characters are swimming in a river. Do they keep their clothes on? If not, what did they wear when doing so? Nothing?
