We finally went to have a look at the Barbie flagship megastore on Huaihai Road over the weekend in an attempt to sidestep the first week rush. What stood out to us most: This rather... suggestive... escalator. We hardly knew where we would end up if we entered.

The Sun Yat-Sen University (中山大学) in Zhuhai made headlines recently with the establishment of the first gay support group on a Chinese university campus. This is the first legally registered student group, which will perhaps set a precedent for similar groups at Chinese universities that are still informal or unregistered. You can read an interview (in Chinese) with Ai Xiaoming and Li Yinhe (the latter recently made headlines again because she "endorses" wife-swapping) and learn about some of the issues involved in setting up a gay-rights or gay-themed student group at a university. Apparently Sun Yat-sen University has a history of openness -- they even staged a performance of The Vagina Monologues there. The new student group is called "Happy Together" (an homage to Wong Kar-wai, not The Turtles) in English and in Chinese it's known as the 彩虹社 (caihong she or Rainbow Group).

That's a phrase all men yearn to hear. Wish granted! ... thanks to some brilliant minds in -- you guessed it -- Guangdong province. According to a very vague Xinhua photo caption, a condom-in-a-can (or, if you prefer, it's sexed-up official name: "Nanometer-silver Cryptomorphic Condom") has been approved by Guangdong's "drug administration," and somehow that means it can now be sold throughout China. The man pictured is the proud owner of a spray condom in Hubei province's Yichang.
