PLA advice is to avoid masturbation ...
Print Edition
THE military is fretting about the growing number of would-be recruits failing its fitness tests, but says it has the answer — avoid masturbating and playing computer games.
People’s Liberation Army chiefs aim to ensure applicants are in tip-top condition before they join the rank and file of the military force.
The official PLA Daily spelt out a number of reasons why so many potential recruits fall at the first hurdle. It said 20 percent were overweight while 8 percent were rejected due to an enlarged testicular vein.
The newspaper did not say how officers knew about the vein issue but said the problems were caused by too much masturbation, too much time playing video games and not enough exercise.
Obvious or oversized tattoos were also a no-no, it said, pointing out that others failed the test because of liver problems associated with alcohol.
It said that in one city alone more than half the candidates were rejected after failing to show they were fit and healthy.
“China’s recruitment process has strict rules and procedures,” the defense ministry said.
“The quality of our recruits is guaranteed and the headwaters of our military will flow long and strong.”
