Ever Heard of Funeral Strippers? Well, they Exist in China
Would
you hire strippers to dance at a funeral service? For a growing number
of people in China, the answer to this question is “Yes.”
According to Cosmopolitan,
people in China who choose to hire strippers for funerals, do so to
make the service more fun, as otherwise, “no one would come.” Also, some
believe that having a large crowd present is “a harbinger of good
fortune in the afterlife,” and so strippers are used to attract a crowd.
However, the Chinese government has started to work with policemen to crackdown on funeral strippers.
AsiaOne
reports that one woman organised strippers to perform at her husband’s
funeral “to venerate her late husband’s memory and let him feast his
eyes from the afterlife, as during his time, he famously had a penchant
for looking at beautiful women.”
