When funeral strippers are outlawed, only outlaws will have funeral strippers.\
\
\"The country's Ministry of Culture announced late last month that it will be targeting a slew of rural provinces "for their obscene and vulgar performances at weddings, funerals and temple fairs," China's state-run Global Times newspaper reported.\
\
As part of the new crackdown, a special "hotline" will be set up for the public to report any "funeral misdeeds" in exchange for a monetary reward, according to news outlet.\
\
It has been a longtime tradition in rural China for residents to hire strippers to partake in bawdy performances at funerals in order to attract a larger attendance of mourners.\
\
Those locals believe that a high turnout at funerals is a sign of honor for the dead.\"
