Shein Bans Sex Dolls Amid Controversy in France
In response to public outrage and threats from French authorities, Shein has decided to ban all types of sex dolls from its marketplace. The controversy erupted after allegations surfaced regarding the sale of childlike sex dolls, leading to significant protests and boycotts in France. As Shein prepared to open its first store in Paris, the French government warned it could face a market ban if such products continued to be listed. The French consumer watchdog has reported Shein for its actions, and the company has vowed to cooperate with authorities in an investigation surrounding the sale of these controversial items.
