How does Li Yinhe continue to be so controversial, yet they don't lock her up and throw away the key?
Among other things the famous sociologist said: Li Yinhe also believes the law is unfairly discriminatory because it was drafted according to upper class values, with no consideration of the rest of society's need for pornography.
Hey, wait a minute! You mean the upper class don't have no need for porn?
Li: China's anti-porn law outdated (http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2006-11/28/content_745317.htm)

Prominent Chinese sociologist on sex issues Li Yinhe has sparked another debate by arguing that the life sentence given to the man who created China's largest pornographic website is unfair. She argued that the law against producing, selling and propagating obscene products should be overthrown.
The Taiyuan Intermediate People's Court in north China sentenced Chen Hui on November 22 for creating Qingseliuyuetian, which translates roughly as "Pornographic Summer". They also ordered that 100,000 yuan, or 12,500 US dollars, be confiscated from him.
Sociologist Li Yinhe called China's anti-pornography law outdated in a blog entry on November 23, arguing that China is the only modern society in the world with such a law.
She also claimed the law conflicts with the national constitution, which entitles all Chinese citizens to freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
Li Yinhe also believes the law is unfairly discriminatory because it was drafted according to upper class values, with no consideration of the rest of society's need for pornography.
She finally said the law should be repealed because enforcement is so ineffective that only one out of every 100 people who breach the law is sentenced like Chen Hui.
