How will this work they just are ready to open a Hooter's in China. What will the little waitresses wear burqas?

China's broadcasting watchdog has banned all "sexually suggestive" advertising on television and radio, state media has reported.

Adverts for products like sex-related health supplements and sex toys will be prohibited, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television said.

"Vulgar" adverts for things like breast enhancements and female underwear will also be banned, Sarft said.

The watchdog said the move was taken as the adverts were "socially corrupting"

Sexually suggestive is the hallmark of our advertising. I don't watch much Chineese tv anyway. Laughing
