Thank You Very Much for your post, Typhoon...........

Interesting.........

AIUI there is a shortage of women in China.........

After the One Child policy..........
China's poorest men should be made to share wives because a shortage of women means there are not enough to go around, says top economist

BRIDE SHORTAGE, UNMARRIED MEN AND FOREIGN WOMEN FOR SALE IN CHINA

BRIDE SHORTAGE IN CHINA

The high number of male births has also resulted in a shortage of brides. According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences one in five young men will be brideless. It is estimated that one million Chinese men will reach marriageable age every year and be unable to find a wife. Studies indicate that one in ten to one in six men “a number equivalent to the entire population of Canada---will never get married and that unmarried men between 20 and 44 already outnumber their female counterparts 2 to 1.

In the total population of only 284 in Jin's tiny hamlet in Da Xin township in China's Hunan province, the number of single women is zero. There hasn't been a wedding or a new home built here for a decade. "I'm poor and I'm no longer young," says Jin, who's 33 and still boyish-looking. "There are so many bachelors that I will never find a girl to marry me."

Korean women escaping from that frozen hell are quite willing to marry poor even elderly Chinese farmers.......

im seeing mixed views on that and its all quite ironic when you think about it.

they have many older people who sacraficed alot for mao's madness so they cant denigrate them and they also got their own power and legitimacy from that.

vs

violent chaotic revolution agains the upper class and calling it a successful technique is hardly a viewpoint they wish to indulge ahha.

The [former] dictator is enjoying a surge of popularity. But the rise of this neo-Maoist movement could upend China’s stability.

Indeed.

However, these predictions came after the Great Bubble Economy.

During the Bubble Economy, the same pundits, the usual suspects, were predicting that Japan was going to rule the world economically.

At some point, China will have it's own debt blowout. As for when, who knows.

from what i understand china is quite separated between its urban and rural sub cultures so the rurals have an excess of boys doesnt mean the urban will have an excess of good husbands.

lots of unmarried rednecks doesnt appeal to the middle class chicks :)

Thanx , noddy .. makes sense .. seems the girls are educated and in big cities .. the boys in farms .. does not match

The single girls have "biological" clock .. if not married and had children, quite difficult and not good to have children once passed 40.

Is IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation) .. a lot of carrier woman, girls, do this in US .. costly, but carrier woman can afford.

Would become good business in China

Doctors who specialize in IVF, in US, can make 3+ m per yrs.

Quite.

Middle class women in urban China have three minimum criteria that men must meet:

Own a house, or at least a sizeable apartment, in the city.
Own a car.
Have a respected well paying stable job with good prospects.

Other factors include family background and class which have re-emerged as significant considerations.

They certainly are making it difficult for foreign companies to operate in China.

As with Japan, "Chinese snow is different".

Maoists for Trump
Lately some of China’s Maoists are finding inspiration in an unlikely insurgent in the West :
Donald J. Trump.



Nice bedfellow :lol:


Trump will fail .. All those millionaires and Billionaires on his cabinet worthless .. American strength is (relative) penniless people building enterprise, like Bezos from Amazon or those google people or Oracle etc etc, not people like Koch Brothers born with silver spoon in mouth.

Donald going to fail, badly .. all hot air.

Few man, even in America, would qualify with those 3 "minimum" criteria , let alone in China

These days, very few young man own a home in America, let alone a "well paying stable Job" (even without any prospect as anyone can be laid off with a week notice).

Girls should loosen up .. partner is not same as life insurance .. young couples must "make it" together, built their life, including assets, together .. otherwise it would be "love-less" life, worthless .. or they must marry somebody (@lest) double their own age (seems now happening).
