China's Sex Park Demolished


By: Vickie J. Rubinson

China's first theme park devoted to sex has been demolished, weeks before it was due to open.

"Love Land" was going to feature giant models of genitals, workshops on sex techniques and educational displays about condom use.

Lu Xiaoqing, the developer of the park, said he got the idea for the venture after visiting a popular sex park in South Korea. But locals began complaining when they saw the naked statues going up and officials ordered the site's demolition.

Sex is still a taboo subject in much of China, where authorities routinely censor sex scenes from foreign films and books.
