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."

It's shocking how many articles I've seen in recent years with only one or two sentences.

Not MSM, though.

I wish

MSM are actually the only people I've seen do that.
