Taiwan parents hiring pole dancers for son’s graduation leads to police action

A couple in Taiwan have sparked controversy by hiring two pole dancers to perform outside their son’s secondary school as a celebration of his graduation.

The performance took place outside Taichung Municipal Wanhe Junior High School in mid-June, just after the graduation ceremony concluded and students exited the building, according to CTITV News.

Many shocked students and parents gathered to watch the performance of the two female dancers, creating a buzz of disbelief in the crowd.

A young boy, who was invited to stand between the performers, appeared visibly embarrassed during the minutes-long show.

The dancers later climbed onto the roofs of two sport utility vehicles, where separate poles were installed, and continued their performance from there.

The boy’s mother told the media that the pole dance was sponsored by a friend and choreographed by herself, aiming to “stand out” among various graduation activities.
