Monsters are not Welcome in China
A few months ago, the Chinese government launched a moralizing campaign against erotic shows. Now it prohibits the sale of videos containing “elements of mystery and horror” that can compromise “children’s and teens’ character formation”. The government also exhorts the producers to remove horror elements in the movies under production as well. Last May, Beijing banned horror comics, become a must among Chinese teens. The initiative was taken following the big success of Death Note, a comic book that told in detail any type of awful death, pledging that if the reader had written a person’s name in it, the poor thing would have died within a few days. I hope this comic never ends up in the hands of my ex.

Yesterday the China Daily published a mini reportage about homosexuality, whit a photo portraying two Chinese men’s ardent kiss as well. Read it! It’s very interesting and really revolutionary too. As a matter of fact, the China Daily is the mouthpiece of a country which, until few years ago, jailed the gays. Have a good read.
