China has been creating this artificial hymen (pictured above) for quite some time, but it was its advertising in the Middle East that caused an uproar.
The “hymen”: a 5×7cm folded piece of plastic – of albumin, – covered on one side by dark red ink. Placed in the vagina before sex, the plastic hardens slightly, and rips upon intercourse. A few drops of “blood” will stain the sheets, preserving the woman’s, her family’s, or society’s “honour”.
