China is experiencing the forth "single" tide, according to Urban Single Woman's Living report written by Chen Yaya, associate researcher of Shanghai Academy of Social Science, The Guangzhou Daily reports. |
《廣州日報》消息,上海社會科學(xué)院助理研究員陳亞亞的《都市單身女性的生存狀態(tài)考察》指出,中國正經(jīng)歷第四次單身潮。 |
There were three tides of being single in the history of People's Republic of China. By the end of 20th century, with the rapid development of economy and the improvement of women's independent awareness, the fourth single trend appeared. More and more women voluntarily choose to be single and they have promoted the "single economy." |
中國內(nèi)地之前曾出現(xiàn)過三次單身潮,到了20世紀(jì)末,隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)的飛速發(fā)展和女性自主意識的提升,第四次單身浪潮逐漸顯現(xiàn)。主動選擇單身的“單女”明顯增多,還帶動了“單身經(jīng)濟(jì)”。 |
The single women's living pressure is also huge. Most of the single women in Shanghai are very busy and 57% of them work more than 8 hours a day. Four percent of women choose to be single due to their sex preference.

但“單女”的生存壓力也是巨大的,上海的“單女”大多工作繁忙,57%的人每天工作超過8小時。也有近4%的女性因性取向而選擇單身。 |
