It’s not just Chinese funerals that use a bit of tit-bounce to promote interest and raise… funds:
Bride lets guests pull down dress and grope her breasts to raise money for honeymoon (mirror.co.uk).
“A queue of people lines up to grope a bride’s breasts…so that she can afford a honeymoon. This bizarre clip, which was filmed in China, shows men and women paying to touch the bride, apparently so that she and her new husband can pay for their post-wedding trip. The woman and those groping her appear to pose for pictures as she takes the money and pushes their hands to her chest. Meanwhile, the wedding party continues around them.”
That’s a novel wedding selfie to put in the Instagram album isn’t it; thankfully though, rather than old uncle Fu:
“The first in line in the clip is a woman who spends some time posing for a photo with the bride, who is still wearing her wedding outfit. Her dress is pulled down to expose her breasts, which are then manhandled for cash.”
Or “women-handled” it seems, which I hear is often more in demand in a pictorial sense, and certainly more acceptable for social mores than say, had uncle Fu posted that one of him cupping bridegroom’s scrotum, to raise funds or not.
“Next in line is a man who gets even closer when the bride pulls his head down to her chest.”
Are we sure this was actually to raise funds other than consensual everything else at a swingers wedding? No wonder uncle Fu just took those wooden dentures out.
“Finally, another man takes his turn while the bride blows a kiss to the camera.”
Indeed, but it’s not just a kiss she is blowing in the full uncensored version. Is this an isolated incident or…
“ The strange custom is said to take place at weddings in China and other parts of Asia. Also common at Chinese weddings is tradition of ‘nao dongfang’, which sees both bride and groom subjected to pranks throughout their wedding reception.”
Indeed, bride breast massage is apparently a Chinese tradition (GoogleTube)—although whether raising honeymoon funds is always a part of it too is not stated. Perhaps it just a cultural tradition where breasts as secondary sex (i.e. non-reproductive) characteristics are already at where those “bizarrely shamed yet oversexualized” wishing to #FreeTheNipple (Pick of the Week 14th Jan. 2015) on New York streets wish they were.

Chinese sex seemingly being the aspect of the rising Asian tiger tabloids see most opportune, and indeed, at least it could be said marking aspects of global culture those reading tabloids are interested in as anything other than mutable:
Newlyweds horrified as groom’s pals burst in on them having sex on their WEDDING NIGHT (mirror.co.uk).
“ Most newlyweds look forward to spending an intimate, peaceful and special night together after their big day. But this couple’s hopes for such a night were dashed when the groom’s pals decided to make a surprise appearance. The unsuspecting husband and wife were having sex in bed when the group of friends entered the room with a video camera. Walking towards the embarrassed pair, they then began to shout and laugh—before pulling the duvet off their entwined, naked bodies. Footage shows the bride crying out and quickly moving her hand to cover her husband’s bottom in a bid to protect his modesty.”
The “modesty” of either the Mirror is equally as unbothered with preserving with “warning, graphic content” copy.
