So it essentially reconstructs a ruptured hymen, allowing her to bleed upon having sexual intercourse, to simulate the loss of virginity.

In October 2009, Mohamed Al Rahal ordered a hymen kit and posted photos in his blog, as noted in a previous Global Voices story.

Such is the hymen a 5x7cm folded piece of plastic of albumin, the notice promptly corrects me covered on one side by dark red ink.

And as if Egyptian women were all waiting for the miracle hymen to embark on pre marital sex, conservative parliament members want the product banned and any importer exiled or beheaded.

Egyptians began wondering if Egypt will start importing Chinese Hymens and Amira Al Tahawi, who used to work with Radio Netherlands at the time, got fired for blowing the whistle over the fabricated Chinese hymen story.

She needs someone to defend her the way she defended Egyptian girls when imposters claimed that they are waiting for the fake hymen to cover up for their immorality. I urge every Egyptian woman to return the favor and defend Amira who lost her job.

While bleeding on the wedding night is still the proof of the bride's honor in Egypt and Middle Eastern countries, Radio Netherlands broadcast an Arabic translation of the Chinese advertisement of the Artificial Virginity Hymen kit. Youm7 newspaper announced that the product will be available on the Egyptian market for LE 83.
