China Bans Bra, Underwear, Sex Toy Ads

BEIJING (AP) - China has banned television and radio ads for push-up bras, figure- enhancing underwear and sex toys in the communist government's latest move to purge the nation's airwaves of what it calls social pollution.
Regulators have already targeted ads using crude or suggestive language, behavior, and images, tightening their grip on television and radio a few weeks ahead of a twice-a-decade Communist Party congress at which some new senior leaders will be appointed.

The latest move by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, or SARFT, also bans advertisements for sexual aids such as tonics that claim to boost performance in bed.

The notice indicated that regulators were concerned about both lascivious imagery and outrageous or insupportable claims about some products' benefits or effectiveness.

"Illegal 'sexual medication' advertisements and other harmful ads pose a grave threat to society," said the SARFT notice, issued in the past week and posted on the administration's Web site.

"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," the notice said.

China has already also issued strict rules for TV talent shows, including the banning of "American Idol"-style mass audience voting by mobile phone text message or the Internet.

A few weeks ago, SARFT ordered 11 radio shows off the air in southern and central China for talking too explicitly about sex or for broadcasting material of an "extreme pornographic nature."

Regulators have also banned television shows about cosmetic surgery and sex changes, and a talent show that they deemed coarse.

I wonder if china will try

I wonder if china will try to ban access to every adult site on the net, they really need to loosen up and realize that sex isn't bad. But in a country with so many people maybe it's understandable the last thing they want are more people in their over populated country as it is.

This is ridiclous

This step from the chinese government is another example of the iron fist which they use to rule their people. Quite unpardonable actually, curbing the right to freedom of expression, curbing ones right to freedom of speech and now this, its common place as far as china is concerned and doesnt come as a surprise. What is surprising is the blind eye which the western powers, the self proclaimed defenders of human rights have turned towards the inhumane & rogue practices of the chinese government.

Furthermore what the chinese government doesnt understand is that by banning sex sited you cannot ban the ides of sex and this will only lead to more furstration and more exploitation of the chinese women as if whatever they were going through was not enough.

London Escorts are the best.

Why would they ban such

Why would they ban such thing.

One Wonders

It's funny that it always tends to be some Government official (probably the one making these laws) that tend to have five mistresses and their hands in the till. They seem to use these petty things to divert public attention from what they are really up to. In Dubai where I live I often enjoy the company of Dubai Escorts. This is now tolerated because the Government is busy running the country and concentrating on what really matters!

I described Amsterdam

I described Amsterdam to my Mom as "A bastion of hedonism". Sure, it has beautiful canals, nice people, amazing sights, about a billion bicycles and a ton of charm, but what is truly impressive about Amsterdam and what differentiates it on a worldwide scale is the liberal policies of the Dutch government concerning drugs and prostitution.

For instance, we stayed in a guesthouse in the Red Light District and within two blocks of our guesthouse, anyone with the money can legally buy "soft drugs" like marijuana, mushrooms and hashish in small quantities and sexual services from a host of licensed prostitutes who display their wares in large windows under red lights. I suppose you could also see some music and complete the hedonists triumverate of sex, drugs and rock-n-roll.

The Smitten Kitten

The Smitten Kitten is the only sex toy store in the world that has a anti-PVC policy resulting from our commitment to our feminist ethics and environmental justice perspective. Not only do we sell PVC-Free sex toys; but, more importantly, we DON'T sell ANY so-called toxic toys or sell ANY lubricants or massage oils that are packaged in PVC bottles either!

I think that is quite fair.

I think that is quite fair. China is the most fastest developing economy in the world but at the same time the culture in that country is different and advertisement for bra and Adult Toys should not be allowed as this would not be accepted by the people residing in that country.

Commercials showing lingerie

Commercials showing lingerie or bikini clad models wearing skimpy seamless bras are really not the thing would like the kids to see on prime time TV.

The Chinese are really a

The Chinese are really a different nation. The government will do a cover up on human rights and then even ban adult advertisements. Adult VOD

best adult shop online

A sex toy is an object or device that is primarily used to facilitate human sexual pleasure. The most popular sex toys are designed to resemble human genitals and may be vibrating or non-vibrating. The term can also include BDSM apparatus and sex furniture such as slings, however it is not applied to items such as contraceptives, pornography, or condoms.

They'll eventually relax

They'll eventually relax their rules. If you look at China compared to 30 years ago it's come a long way. In another 30yrs they'll be as liberal as the rest of the Western world.

Sex toys are items designed

Sex toys are items designed to be used in self-masturbation or sex to aid or intensify sexual pleasure.

Social pollution that really a term made up by the communist

Social pollution that really a term made up by the communist brains of the country's politicians. But they are completely right in clamping down on such advertisement because children and young adults view prime time TV and this could really have an impression, which parents always want to keep them away from. TV advertisements for sex toys now that is ridiculous isn’t the internet already a huge source for sex toy ads why reach homes so directly. One day we could see that televisions are the new Live Sexcams in all our homes.

China bans

BEIJING -- China has banned television and radio ads for push-up bras, figure-enhancing underwear and sex toys in the communist government's latest move to purge the nation's airwaves of what it calls social pollution on frontpage hosting.

Regulators have already targeted ads using crude or suggestive language,asp hosting, behavior, and images, tightening their grip on television and radio a few weeks ahead of a twice-a-decade Communist Party congress at which some new senior leaders will be appointed.

The latest move by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television also bans advertisements for sexual aids
China bans "vulgar" crime reconstruction TV series

Beijing, Sept 25 (PTI) -- China has banned a television crime drama jsp hosting which reenacts real crimes committed by women, saying it was detrimental to the society.

The ban order on "Red Question Mark" was issued by China's State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), the broadcast media watchdog on free web hosting.

"The production is bad and vulgar as it focuses on and exaggerates the process of committing crimes, which leads to a negative social effect and brings shame on the image of the whole TV drama ...

Yes, because banning

Yes, because banning lingerie is so much more important than making sure they don't export toxic food to children toys. Ugh. Priorities people! Where are they?

It's ridiculous

It's ridiculous to hear that China has banned the ads for Push-up Bras and Sex Toys. They can advice the tv channels not to show the ads on prime time rather than ban the ads. If the government policy is to prevent sexual violations, I must say this is not the actual way. Open discussion is the only way to minimize the problem, I think.

Funny policies

It's funny that a government is imposing laws to ban tv shows related to talent shows, cosmetic surgery and sex changes. I know those kind of shows have some negative impact on children. But in a civilized society everyone should have the freedom to decide what to do or not to do. The country is opening it's door widely for the foreign business houses and on the other hand is banning talent shows, inspired by "American Idol"! Ridiculous.

Hilarious

China has banned ads for push-up bras, figure- enhancing underwear and sex toys to protect the next generation youth from sex addiction. It appears as hilarious to me. What about those websites flooded with wow nude movies? I think no government can ban those sites by putting laws.
