The two-finger test (TFT) was once widely accepted but is an inhumane and scientifically unfounded practice historically used in Bangladesh to provide medico-legal evidence in rape cases.

Neither the condition of the hymen nor vaginal laxity can scientifically prove or disprove sexual assault or a person’s consent.
