Netizens Sarcastic Protest: "Schoolmaster, Sleep with Me if You Want! No Pupils!" Including Ai Weiwei

June 1 is China's Children's Day, however, this year the festival is doomed to be ruined by several continuous scandals of girl pupils' being sexually assaulted.

The first case broke out in May 13 in Wanning, Hainan Province. A schoolmaster and a government official in Hainan Province were arrested in connection with the sexual assault to 6 primary school girls. The government spokesman said the girls were sexually molested but not raped. However, the government bureau and police refused to have the girls' health condition further checked, while the parents of some girls posted the pictures of their daughter's underwear, proving that rape(s) took place.

The incident triggered national outrage; many netizens questioned local government and required those who should be responsible punished. Some netizens even questioned China's current related laws, which failed to offer enough protection to minors and many suspects who raped young boys/girls under 14 found it easy to escape from legal punishment.

The incident also disclosed many other sexual-assaulting cases, and the series of scandals rocked the whole China. The astonishing fact even angered netizens because the Chinese media purposely deleted lots of related reports and discussion due to the demand of propaganda, while there is few reports about how the local governmental suspects be punished, which, in China, could be interpreted that no one has to be responsible for the harm to girl students.

Started by Ye Haiyan a well-known feminist, a sarcastic protest prevails online. Ye went to Wanning, Hainan Province and stood outside the school where the scandal happened, holding a poster saying: "Schoolmaster, Sleep with me if you want! No pupils!"
Ye paid the bill: she was soon arrested in the name of legal disputes against her neighbors. However, lots of netizens immediately imitated Ye's move to support Ye and the girl students in such a sarcastic protest:
Everyone holds a paper saying: "Schoolmaster, sleep with me if you want! No pupils!" Some netizens just wrote the words on their body, inluding Ai Weiwei:

Some netizens even edited the photos of many famous people to protest sarcastically, including Kim Jong-un, Sister Feng (a well-known internet people among China), and some Japanese AV stars well-known to Chinese netizens.

The protest does not end so far; yet, the lack of enough protection to minors in China keeps a serious issue until policy-makers understand people's happiness is far more important than their abnormal need.
