Lust lost in (Beijing's) translation


It is ironic that Beijing's latest campaign to turn the world's most populous country into a sexless nation coincides with the release across Asia of Ang Lee's award-winning film, Lust, Caution, which takes eroticism to new heights in Chinese-language cinema.

While Lee's co-stars - veteran Hong Kong actor Tony Leung Chiu-wai and film ingenue Tang Wei from the mainland - engage in sexual calisthenics for packed audiences in cinema houses throughout the region, China's State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) is busy banning advertisements for women's underwear. The problem, it seems, is the targeted lingerie's provocative selling point: propping up sagging tops and reining in expanding middles.

The ban also includes products that claim to improve sexual performance, sexual toys and "inelegant images" - whatever that might mean - in ads for "adult products". "Illegal 'sexual medication' advertisements and other harmful ads pose a grave threat to society," warned the SARFT notice.

This latest salvo from the broadcast watchdog is the continuation of a campaign against sex and violence on the airwaves that started this past summer and has since gathered steam. Last month, SARFT ordered 11 radio shows off the air in southern and central China for broadcasting content that, at its worst, the agency described as of an "extreme pornographic nature". In addition, the watchdog censured two radio stations in Sichuan province for airing programs of "indescribably squalid, erotic, and indecent content".

Television shows about cosmetic surgery have also been axed, as have American-Idol-style talent shows, apparently because regulators are rattled by the mass voting, via mobile phones and the Internet that they encourage,

8. Authoritarians generally hate/fear sex.

Censorship of nudity and sexual expressions is a classic hallmark of the kind of control freak mentality that wants to run the lives of consenting adults. Doesn't matter if its done in the name of the Pope, The Communist Party of China, or some other misguided institution or agenda.
