The social media trend started on Weibo (basically the Chinese equivalent of Twitter) earlier this week, and has racked up more than 140 million posts to date. Its origins are hazy — but allegedly, the challenge is based on a “scientific” study from the United States that claims if you can reach behind your back and around your waist to touch your belly button, you’re perfectly healthy. (Alternatively, if you can’t, you better start hitting the gym or going to yoga until you can.)

What.

What.
 
Yes, this is the worst I've ever seen of society...
well, the objectification of the female body and the pressure on young people to be a certain size is a problem that permeates through society. yes it's not as bad as say, institutionalised racism or even a particularly overt example of a problem, it is still another layer to the stresses placed on people, particularly young women.
