China is blurring men's earrings on TV

Chinese TV is blurring out the ears of men wearing earrings. From CNN:

It's unclear if Chinese regulators have issued a specific directive barring men from being shown wearing earrings, or whether TV stations are reacting to a shift in what is considered culturally appropriate.

When it comes to television, the country's regulations previously barred programs from airing content that expresses 'overt admiration for Western lifestyles,' jokes about Chinese traditions or defiles 'classic materials...'
The country's censors have also been quick to black out content on LGBT issues. Guidelines released in China in 2016 characterized homosexuality as an 'abnormal sexual behavior' unfit for Chinese television, alongside incest, sexual abuse and 'perversion.'
