In fact, here are millions of young ages feel in trouble with looking for lovers or spouses. And it's called "Single Hazard". They will face the pressure from parents, elder ages of their family and other people.

Now our sex ratio imbalance, men blame women "money worship" should not blame women looking for a spouse when asking for too much. While women in turn denounced the year because of ideology "patriarchal" which led to the imbalance between men and women, now "disastrous", and now a small number of women feel that their not too much. With the growing contradiction between the sexes, in recent years, our population has also declined to some extent. Now the situation is basically: do not buy a house, can not afford housing; do not get married, then can not afford marriage; find the object, not to find the object.

So to speak, merchants making profits led consumption greatly inflated a small part of irrational men and women, and a small number of errors Three Views of speech and breed out now called "patriarchal", "feminist."
