A video of a woman kneeling in a shopping centre in central China, pleading with her husband to buy her a down jacket, has gone viral on social media, igniting widespread outrage against the man.
The clip was recorded in early December outside a clothing store in a shopping centre in Xiaogan, Hubei province.
In the video, the woman is seen on her knees, begging her husband to purchase a 299-yuan (US$40) down jacket for her. Meanwhile, the husband berated her for several minutes, according to a report by Henan TV.

The man, with his hands on his hips in a dismissive stance, can be heard shouting, “I won’t buy it,” throughout the footage, as noted by the report.
Further details of their conversation were inaudible in the video.
