The Forbidden City has reported that it plans to press charges against the naked model who rode on a stone dragon as part of photographer Wang Dong's controversial photo shoot. The museum is currently working with the police the build a case against the woman.
The Forbidden City has already spoken out against the photo shoot, saying that it was an insult to Chinese cultural heritage.
The museum cited “Security Administration Punishment Law,” Article 44 in its decision to press charges. The law states that indecent exposure or deliberate public nudity can be punished with five to ten days in jail.
The photographer and model may also be charged with disturbing public order, and interfering with tourism. If accused, they could be given a warning and fined.

This is surely to reduce the number of copycat wanna-be photographers from performing similar stunts. Originality isn't in their blood and the government acknowledges that with this ridiculous prosecution

I feel so sorry for the model. Oh dear, seeing a naked Chinese girl is gonna really hurt people, statues, and the Forbidden City. What is that woman's name, maybe we can recommend her to help some floundering businesses abroad with the kind of attention she has been getting. But then again, I just read news that someone is suing actress Zhao Wei for "staring at him too long" in the tv screen.

Someone didn't read the article, the photographer is also getting punished. Also what makes you think the photographer is a man in the first place?

And on and on they go... with this boring topic. Well, that's fine if they want to make a big deal out of it and send a signal to all Chinese women that their bodies are insults. It will just keep making it easier for foreign men to scoop them up and appreciate them.

Hey coward, I mean Guest(some random number for some random insignificant dude). I have a Chinese wife, and I didn't have to steal her. She ran into my BARE STRONG HANDS because the alternative was DIRTY WEAK HANDS. I chose her out of many opportunities. But hey, at least you have a couple of opportunities too. Left or Right.
