What the hell is WRONG with this country? They are made out of paper mache for shit's sake. BUT NO! CNN had to put a fuzzybox over the nipples in the video. :wtf:

1. Considering piñatas are beat with sticks to get the candy out...
I have to wonder about the psychology of making them to look like strippers/women. Of course, you have kids beating Elmo too...

Yes, I agree, this country is monitored by a bunch of prudes, Europe laughs at us regularly.

2. It's very misogynistic.
This notion of teaching children to get candy by beating women.

3. The video said guys were buying them for bachelor parties too.
When you really look at it, it is just wrong to hit with a stick, any symbol of a living being, to get candy from the inside. Piñatas ought to be made to look like repug faces, then I wouldn't have a problem. Maybe we could make a suggestion to the owner of the store.
