Woman claims daughter became pregnant by wearing underwear purchased online

A Chinese company recently published a series of texts between its customer service and a woman who claimed her daughter had become pregnant after wearing underwear bought from the company.

The unnamed company made the allegations made by an alleged customer public as a warning that such stunts could put entrepreneurs out of business. Apparently, a woman claiming to have purchased underwear from the company on Taobao, one of China’s largest online retail platforms, contacted customer support to complain that her daughter had become pregnant after wearing a pair of brand-new underwear. Despite staff’s attempts to convince the disgruntled woman that such a thing wasn’t possible, she insisted that it was the only way her daughter could have gotten pregnant and demanded an explanation.

All attempts to convince the woman that her theory was physiologically impossible failed, so in the end customer service told her that its factory staff consisted exclusively of women and their boss had gotten a vasectomy, so the girl’s pregnancy had nothing to do with the company.

“My daughter is pregnant after wearing your underwear,” the woman wrote on a private messaging board, to which the company’s staff answered that “underwear cannot be used as a means of transmission of pregnancy”.

Fearing that the woman could go public with her own version of the story, the company decided to publish the messages between her and its customer service on social media so people could see just how nonsensical her claim was. Unsurprisingly, the post went viral, attracting lots of humorous comments and theories on how the woman’s daughter had become pregnant. Some were certain that the girl had feigned ignorance to avoid being scolded by her mother, while others came up with even wilder theories such as her getting pregnant after swimming in a public pool.

After the story went viral online, the CEO of the company posted on its official channels that he had tried contacting the woman directly to learn more about this bizarre problem, but after checking her phone number, he learned that she was an influencer who was likely hoping to draw more attention to herself by creating this strange scandal.

“I hate this kind of people,” the man wrote, accusing the woman of making up a story for attention and ignoring the risk of dealing a “devastating blow” to businesses such as his. Some people will actually believe such wild claims and the rumors they spread can actually get a factory shut down or put it out of business.
