Article 150 covers bringing the party into disrepute by living too egregious of a conspicuous consumption hypebeast lifestyle. So it's actually the "party members shouldn't bring the party into disrepute by buying so many gold-plated Bugatti Veyrons that normal people are beginning to notice/complain" clause.
Technically the "don't get caught at strip clubs" clause is Article 151. Actually, to be serious, it's not even that as Article 151 is not really a generalised "party members can't have extramarital sex ever" rule, but just a "don't abuse your power to be a sex pest" clause. The real "don't get caught in a strip club" provision is Article 153 (i.e. don't "violate social public order and good morals") and since the sex industry is, as far as I'm aware, still very illegal in China, a party member being caught in one is basically also a criminal matter as well as a party discipline matter.
This is why I left the Left. In this essay I will demonstrate why forcing me personally to adhere to this many rules is counter-revolutionary, firstly
WTF? Let people enjoy things! Really sick of how our species is so prudish around sex.
Are you serious or is this a bit? Plenty of people in the PRC can enjoy things, it’s just party members who are held to a higher standard
Part bit, part exhausted at people trying to control everyone else's sexy times. If I want to put my dick in some strange, leave me alone
Sure but that’s why you’re not a public official of the communist party. Ur free to do as you please and “enjoy yourself” as an individual, but there are responsibilities associated with being a party member in China
After all, why live if we can't enjoy ourselves?
