Chinese Leftover Women

The “New York Times” of the United States pointed out that the term “leftover women” first appeared in 2007, and refers to women who have passed the “marriage age” (27 years) generally considered by society but have not yet married. Since then, the “leftover girl” formally entered the public eye and passed on the anxiety carried by the word through various channels.

The problem of leftover women in China is causing the people across the country to lose their family happiness and happiness. First and foremost is the first priority of life in Chinese tradition-marriage. The survey results show that more and more white-collar women have no chance to marry, and the phenomenon of “leftover women” will worsen.

At present, in Beijing and Shanghai alone, nearly a million senior white-collar women have no chance of marrying, becoming the so-called “leftover women” in the media. Statistics across the country cannot be counted, and conservative estimates should exceed 10 million. Within the next five years, at least 10 million more single women who have graduated from college will be added as the new “leftovers.” Moreover, the better a woman is, the more she cannot marry. This will further reduce China’s future population quality, and it is not known what kind of social problems it will cause. As girls and girls’ parents, we must know this issue and plan early.

Women's standards have changed

First, let’s analyze the root causes of the phenomenon of leftover women:

One: As far as fertility is concerned, because Chinese people like boys’ psychology, some people will always use gender testing methods to determine fertility choices. As a result, baby girls are aborted, so the fertility rate of boys is significantly higher than that of women. According to some “demographic experts”, men will not find their wives in the future. In fact, the backward compatibility of male marriage can easily solve the problem of insufficient women of the same age. If men can marry a woman ten years younger than themselves, theoretically their chances are ten times greater than that of women. It is nothing more than a delay in marriage, so there will be no real obstacles. The real big problem lies with women.

2: Although almost all Chinese couples have only one child, they are very willing to have a boy. However, the higher the cultural level of the couple, the more they can accept “natural selection” calmly, and will not take measures to interfere with the child’s reproductive sex. On the contrary, groups with lower cultural quality are more willing to abort female babies and choose male babies. Therefore, the average family education quality of girls must be higher than that of boys. This created the original “feminine advantage”, and it was this advantage that hindered women’s marriage.

Three: The family that gave birth to the girl, while accepting the girl, also has a rebellious thought in the Chinese tradition that attaches importance to the boy’s habitual psychology: “Who says that a woman is not as good as a man!” Education and training of daughters. At the same time, girls themselves can feel the “sex discrimination” against women in the society. In order to “contend for tone”, they often work harder and work harder than boys, so their average educational quality is also higher than that of boys. At the same time, the family that gave birth to a boy is often more “satisfied”. For boys, the “protective mentality” is greater than the “educational mentality”. The average competitiveness of boys who grew up among parents “beautiful” is not satisfactory. .

Women are strong and men are weak, although this will not affect the possibility of marriage for boys, but these strong girls, because they lack enough, can let them entrust lifelong, truly masculine boys, causing the phenomenon of “leftover girls”.

Of course, there is no way to change this phenomenon. Just say it and no one will listen. Girls, and girls’ parents were unhappy after listening to my solution. The boys would not like me to say that. For example, I think that the solution to the current problem is to change the traditional bad habits. Why do women have to marry men who are stronger than themselves? If they change, men must marry women who are stronger than themselves. This problem will not be alleviated. Of course, I just talk about this sentence.
