Waist War in China; New Social Media Trend Gets Attention (SEE)








Can you touch your belly button by reaching behind your back and around your waist? 

Well, that is the new social media trend that has kicked off in China, with thousands uploading photographs of themselves undertaking the challenge. The trend has already been mentioned more than 130m times among Weibo readers – a social media platform.







However, some experts argued that China's new belly button trend bordered on encouraging eating disorders and "distorting" society's standards of beauty. "Quirky poses and pictures can be fun but sometimes they also become expressions of competitiveness or insecurity," said Jolene Tan, Programmes and Communications Senior Manager at Aware, a non-governmental organisation in Singapore championing women's rights. 

It's difficult (but i did it). Can you try?
