China bans seductive eating of bananas

It’s presumably OK to eat a banana in a seductive fashion in China. But the official word is out that live-streaming the act is now forbidden.

The move is the authorities’ latest attempt to clamp down on “inappropriate and erotic” online content. In April, the Ministry of Culture announced it was investigating a number of popular live-streaming platforms for allegedly hosting pornographic or violent content that “harms social morality”. News of the banana ban has prompted thousands of users to chime in on Chinese social media.
