An odd item via China Digital Times:
An odd regulation in Beichan village, Dazu county, Chongqing province, China, now requires emigrant women laborers to have a medical exam for “virginity verification” if they desire to receive compensation for land requisition. Five unmarried women are at their wits-end with this regulation now in place.
I have a feeling there are a few conservative Republicans in Congress who would imagine that denying state benefits to non-virgins would be a good way to promote abstinence - thankfully the idea of stealing "requisitioning" land would be a hard sell to the rest of the party.
