Why Are Nearly 100 Million of China's Post-90s Generation Outside Marriage?

Why Are Nearly 100 Million of China's Post-90s Generation Outside Marriage?

A widely circulated estimate says that nearly 100 million members of China's post-90s generation have never married or have divorced without remarrying. The deeper change is that marriage has moved from the beginning of adult life to a result people pursue only after work, housing, finances, child care, and family responsibilities appear manageable.

一项广泛传播的测算称,中国近1亿90后从未结婚,或离异后没有再婚。更深层的变化在于:婚姻已经从成年生活的起点,变成人们只有在工作、住房、经济、育儿和家庭责任看起来都可以承担之后才会追求的结果。
