Reductio ad absurdum

A Utah girl is receiving criticism for wearing a traditional Chinese style dress to prom.  Self appointed guardians of Chinese culture have found that in appropriate.

Which is absurd.

I'd go further, but I'll simply note instead that a society that debates a topic such as this seriously has either solved all of its real problems, or is so far beyond even attempting to solve them that it chooses instead to deal with the trivial.
