Middle-aged women in China are joining unique “sex appeal training camps” designed to teach them how to seduce their husbands to prevent infidelity. The training camp charged each participant a substantial fee of 2,999 yuan (US$420) for a two-day program, according to The South China Morning Post. A poster promoting the event declared, “Sex appeal is a woman taking control of her life.” Participants were asked to wear form-fitting cheongsams paired with black stockings.
## Sensual Dancing and Kissing Taught in 2-Day Class
On the first day, women attended lectures on the “essence of love” and techniques for achieving orgasm. The following day included classes on kissing, sensual dancing, and playfully tearing their stockings. Participants also engaged in role-playing exercises aimed at teaching them how to display their charm in intimate situations.
A 54-year-old woman who participated in the camp revealed that she developed feelings for her son’s classmate but was concerned about her “diminishing attractiveness.” Another participant, a housewife, faced the prospect of divorce after discovering her husband was cheating.
Women aged between 35 and 55 decided to enroll in the camp after reading the slogan, “Reignite passion in your marriage, revive your erotic life.” Female instructors at the camp claimed to be “advanced therapists in intimate relationships and sex.”
## Social Media Reactions
The news of such a camp operating in traditionally conservative China has sparked criticism on social media platform Weibo. One user commented, “This is an unethical business practice that takes advantage of women who are vulnerable and anxious about their lives.” Another wrote, “These middle-aged women cannot discern right from wrong. We can improve our attractiveness healthily by reading and continuing our education.”
