In recent months, Chinese censors have blurred the lobes of the ears of some pop artists in China in their presentations on television and the Internet, for fear that their perforations and jewelry give a too feminine example for the young people of the country.The prohibition caused gestures of annoyance and even some jokes, but illustrated the dark interference of the Communist Party even in the most trivial details of life in China.
Men's earrings are not the only objectable article that Chinese censors are blurring, covering or cutting.Soccer players carry long sleeves to cover their tattoos.Women who wear costumes in a daring video game convention have received the instruction to cover their necklines.Raperos can only rappel about peace and harmony.
