Bras, Underwear, & Sex Toys: China’s Social Pollution

With how much China has been banning just about everything these days, it is hardly going to be shocking that they have decided to ban Bra, Underwear, and Sex Toy ads from all radio and tv broadcasts.

“They not only seriously mislead consumers, harm the people’s health, pollute the social environment, and corrupt social mores, but also directly harm the credibility of public broadcasting and affect the image of the Communist Party and the government.”, said the SARFT notice issued on their website.

SARFT already banned 13 radio stations off the air for talking about sex on their shows. They also banned shows like “American Idol”, which require mass voting.

Yes indeed dangerous advertising….. Let me see…. The result of you throwing yourself into the chest of a suitably busty fellow commuter is that she will go with you to a big field of flowers, take off her clothes and demonstrate the elasticity of her underwear…… OK, personally I want to live in advertiser land…….. Don’t try this in your city boys and girls!

Well, this particular ad is very misleading. I’d agree the ban.
The guy lean over and accidentally bumped into the girl’s boob and she said, “No, it was very comfortable.” Perverts might think that all ladies enjoy it!
Anyway, very stupid ad.

I think that if you are going 2 have a bra company on line, you should have pictures and display of your bras being worn and not being warn………..what do you think ? that is how you get more customers, don’t you know.
