Zhang Yan, a 24-year-old woman from rural Zhang Yan married Li Qiang in September 2002 and despite repeated invitations, Li refused to consummate their marriage.

Zhang grew even more depressed when neighbors blamed her for not having a child. She left her community and traveled to After her husband found her in Back in the village nothing changed and the couple still did not have intercourse. Zhang finally went to the local court in May and asked for a divorce. A gynecological check-up at a local hospital showed Zhang was still a virgin. Li Qiang defended himself in court saying he didn't want to have a child so early and that there was nothing wrong with his sex ability. Li even provided a medical report which showed that his semen was normal although his virility was slightly below normal. The court decided that Li Qiang's denial of his sex dysfunction lead to the marriage break-up and supported Zhang Yan's divorce request on October19.
