She did it herself, all right.

A woman was caught on camera masturbating while half-naked in a Chinese
IKEA store, prompting the DIY furniture company to pledge stricter
security.

The two-minute pornographic clip shows the unidentified woman wearing just
a white shirt as she pleasures herself in various sections of the store.

As other shoppers walk by, the woman initially sat on a chair, touching
herself as she thrust her butt toward the camera.

She then sat on a bed with her legs spread wide — at one point seeming to
catch the eye of some guys walking past — before taking off her shirt in a
more secluded spot in the store.

After going viral, the X-rated footage was soon scrubbed from Chinese
social media — but with interest so high, even the Swedish furniture
giant’s response got 9 million views, according to Agence France-Presse.

“We resolutely oppose and condemn this kind of behavior, and immediately
reported it to the police in the city of the suspected store,” IKEA said
in a statement, without revealing the name of the branch.

The homeware group said Saturday it would take “even more careful security
and public cleanliness measures” and encouraged all customers to “browse
stores in an orderly and civilized way,” AFP said.

Chinese citizens can face up to 10 days’ administrative detention for
deliberate public nudity, while those who upload and disseminate obscene
content online face up to 15 days’ detention and a maximum fine of 3,000
yuan, or just under $425, the agency said.

Some Chinese social media users have speculated it was a store in
Guangdong province, as Cantonese — spoken in parts of southern China — can
be heard in the background store announcements.

With nobody wearing a face mask, it is also assumed that the pornographic
clip was filmed before the coronavirus outbreak, which brought China to a
standstill from late January. The pandemic had forced IKEA to temporarily
close stores around the world, including all 50 in its second-biggest
market, the United States.

“This woman is so brave, I don’t understand, [she’s] just doing it in
broad daylight,” read one Weibo post that gained more than 8,000 likes.

“There are so many people around, I just don’t understand,” another wrote.

It is not the first explicit video to cause a stir on China’s tightly
controlled social media platforms, AFP noted.

A Beijing branch of the Japanese clothing chain Uniqlo became infamous in
2015 after a clip of a couple having sex in one of its changing rooms went
viral.

Police arrested five people, including the young couple in the video, over
the matter, while Uniqlo firmly denied that it was a publicity stunt.

The clip “severely violated socialist core values,” the Chinese Cyberspace
Administration said at the time.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.

President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

Senile loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi got "Trumped" on February
5, 2020. "President Trump, Not Guilty."
