Stripper Hired to Dance at Funeral

[krykrykrynunit]

There is a bond that some children have with their parents that can never be stripped away.
Cai Ruigong, a Taiwanese man, proved that recently when he hired an adult dancer to perform at his father’s funeral.


Ruigong’s father, Cai Jinlai, was 103 years old when he passed away. Jinlai was famous for his interest in strips clubs and often traveled around the island where he lived, visiting various strip clubs. Jinlai was the oldest person in his village and had over 100 descendants.
Ruigong had made a promise to his father that if he lived past 100 years old, he would have a stripper dance at his funeral.
Jinlai would have been proud to know that he went out in style, with a $160 stripper dancing for 10 minutes in front of his coffin.
We recently published a video that was sent in by one of our readers that showed strippers performing in front of children. Apparently strippers are not frowned upon in Taiwanese culture.
In China, there has been a practice of having strippers at funerals to help boost the number of mourners.

“Local villagers believe that the more people who attend the funeral, the more the dead person is honoured.”

I say this is totally disrespect to the death. I don't understand why Taiwanese do this, funeral is not party!!!

Hey man, a funeral is supposed to be a happy time where you talk about the good times and memories in a persons life, sounds like strip clubs were a part of his life. You can't deny the old man happiness now can you?

The son is honoring his fathers request

Yeah I know, but it's just weird, it doesn't seems to connect, for me funeral should be solemn while everyone mourning about the lost of their important one. A review about the person's life should be done in more proper and respectful ways. Anyway maybe that's their culture and norm.

i have to say i agree wholeheartedly, but at the same time i can see how that ppl want lots of mourners at their funeral... although i don't know that you would find many mourners at a funeral w/ a stripper X3

[meitanteiconan08]

weird, strange and they don't respect the dead people.

[nurul_hussin]

Hmm....I wonder if the people come to mourn or to watch the stripper.
It's weird anyway....

yea, i agree wif u.... the stripper is stealing the limelight from the B & W portrait of the deceased...>___>. if the deceased wans a stripper, the chinese can always burn naked female effigues during rituals...to hire strippers...well...not kinda acceptable to me. a funeral should always have a solemn mood (which is appropriate).

[noobacc]

seems ok if you ask me,some tribe also celebrate when a person die,and his son is just giving him 1 last service before he is gone forever

[*~Angel~*]

I dunno, to me its just strange? I understand how they want to "boost the number of mourners" but it makes me wonder if the people are there to mourn the person who is dead or there to see the stripper. I just find it totally unappropriate.

o Wow!!! It is strange but it changes the mood of a funeral.

yes.
also, wouldnt some ppl go but for the stripper rather than paying their respects?
