China Girls
There are less girls in China than boys, less
women than men. While one child is permitted
to each married couple, a couple may try a second
time to have a boy when the first born is a girl.
If it sounds like
Chinese society continues to favor men, that may
help explain why China has the highest suicide rate
for women of any place on earth. It's the only
country where females exceed males in suicides.
In addition to
isolation and seeing no way out of their marriages
when pre-arranged, rural women and girls have more
difficulty in breaking the cycle of abuse that can
occur. |

Women & Girls
in China
A recent survey
of 4,000 Chinese career women under the age of 30
delved into their preferences for marriage or
remaining single. Over 57% want to get married
before age 30.
About two-thirds of women said that being single is
the result of failure to find a mate. When choosing
a potential spouse, 54% sought mates who shared
common interests; 37% seek partners with a solid
career and financial security; and only 1% choose a
mate based solely on physical appearance.
