A college in Beijing has found itself at the centre of public fury after it allegedly asked a student to prove she was on her period to qualify for sick leave.

A viral video, filmed inside what appears to be a clinic and posted to social media this month, shows a young woman asking an older woman: "Does every menstruating girl have to take off their trousers and show you before they can get a sick note?"

"Basically yes," the older woman replies. "This is a school rule."

Creepy! I remember one time having a hall pass and going to piss and having the adult hall monitor follow me in (after seeing the pass) and listening outside the stall. It's difficult to explain how...demoralizing that is?

Should have went directly to the principal and reported them for breathing creepily outside your bathroom stall.
