Trending: Chrismas gift turns out to be boyfriend

School draws line between sexes

A middle school in East China has created a controversy by ordering students of opposite sex to maintain a 'safe' distance of 44 centimeters between each other, reported chinacqsb.com on Thursday.

Teachers in Jinan in Shandong province came up with the number after an expert suggested that it is the proper distance people should keep from each other as anything less than that usually means a more intimate relationship.

Some of the rules the school had earlier announced but later scrapped included prohibiting boys and girls from sharing a dinner plate, staying together at public spaces, and sending gifts to the opposite sex.

The 'safe' distance decree is the latest addition to the weird rules in Chinese schools.
