Recently, a video named "Pole Dancing in Shanghai Metro" appeared on Tudou and other video websites and was soon reprinted by major forums. In response to this bold behavior, many Internet users expressed their shock and disgust.
In view of the endless subway performance arts that have emerged before, Professor Bo Haibao, director of the School of Politics and Law of Shanghai Finance University and municipal people's congress deputy, submitted a proposal at this year's two sessions, hoping to prohibit performance arts in subways and other public places through local legislation because these arts are beyond citizens' acceptance.
