A blind date in Fujian ended in a wrestling match, but not the, er, “fun kind” that usually proceeds a nice date. After a lovely dinner, the pair planned to go on a moonlit stroll when the man decided this was the perfect time to insult his new female friend’s baby-making abilities.

As they were about to leave the restaurant, the man let the woman know that, well, she’s nice and all, but she isn’t well-suited for him. His family has only one son in three generations, and the pressure is on him (well, his future wife) to bring the family a baby boy. He sadly informed her that it was obvious that she would be unable to bear him a son.

She asked him how he could possibly know that, because clearly science and logic are not lost on her.

The 34-year-old man explained, “My mother said a woman with big hips is most likely to give birth to a son. But yours are not big and so I assume you could not have a son.” Good work, mamma’s boy. What exactly did he think would happen after making that pitiful announcement?

He clearly did not expect the girl to slap him (you go, girl!), which she did. And in response, he pushed her to the ground and they engaged in a good old fashioned tussle, which was broken up when the police arrived. But to be fair, these two should have been grateful: it could have been so, so much worse.
