==================

China is ringing in the New Year by banning television advertising for sanitary towels, hemorrhoid ointments and other items deemed unappetizing during meal times, the China Daily said on Wednesday.

"A new regulation ... will prevent the broadcasting of advertisements for products such as sanitary napkins and medicine for hemorrhoids and athlete's foot during dinner time, as some viewers may consider them to be offensive," the newspaper said.

Hey! China constantly gets depicted as a backwards country, yet men in America have been begging for a restriction on femmine hygene ads for years.

Awesome.

At least there is one country that has some sense of what is appropriate/not appropriate dinner conversation! After having to listen to tales of bowel movements, phlegm and other gross stuff from the older members of my family (who should know better, but probably are just uninhibited thanks to old age), knowing that the entire Chinese government is behind me in my disgust is a comfort.

What happened to my comment?????

Though all of these things are a part of everyday life, there is a time and place for them, and the dinner table is not that place.

I hope that other countries follow suit.
