A husband caused a scandal over his wife's examination by a male obstetrician and demanded a divorce.

A high-profile incident occurred at a hospital in the Chinese city of Changchun: a man went into hysterics after learning that his wife had been examined by a male obstetrician. He demanded an immediate divorce and caused a scene right there in the hospital.

The poor man brought his pregnant wife for an examination and was shocked to learn that the obstetrician was male. The husband began screaming that he no longer wanted to live with a woman whose genitals had been seen (and even touched) by another man. The decision to divorce was compounded by the decision to die right there in the hospital, as the jealous man began banging his head against the wall.

The hospital stated that patients have the option to choose the gender of the doctor. But even if a woman is examined by a man, it's important to remember that this man is a doctor, not someone of the opposite sex. It's unclear whether the angry stranger and his wife will ultimately divorce, but he was eventually calmed down. The doctors put my husband in a wheelchair and gave him oxygen.
