Ori - why is that "obscene"?

In Chinese it would sound obscene, so here I explain it in English.

For a female, the Chinese saying goes:
"in her thirties she's like a wolf; and in her forties, like a tiger."

Hopefully you'll understand it very well.

The Chinese have sex too?

A wolf is supposed to be avaricious in sexual desire in Chinese culture.

Synonyms
Avaricious:
covetous, greedy, rapacious share the sense of desiring to possess more of something than one already has or might in normal circumstances be entitled to. Avaricious often implies a pathological, driven greediness for money or other valuables and usually suggests a concomitant miserliness: the cheerless dwelling of an avaricious usurer. Covetous implies a powerful and usually illicit desire for the property or possessions of another: The book collector was openly covetous of my rare first edition.
Greedy, the most general of these terms, suggests a naked and uncontrolled desire for almost anything—food and drink, money, emotional gratification: embarrassingly greedy for praise. Rapacious, stronger and more assertive than the other terms, implies an aggressive, predatory, insatiable, and unprincipled desire for possessions and power: a rapacious frequenter of tax sales and forced auctions.
