"He's got a girlfriend?"

“……”

Zhou Fangyuan was excited, and he suddenly felt ...... Something is wrong!

It is said that Mo Ruomu, who knows his son, in fact, this sentence is also true when he says the opposite, when his mother opens her mouth, Zhou Fangyuan knows what she wants to say, but he didn't have time to stop and change the topic, and his mother's next sentence followed.

"You're too old, and it's time to think about personal issues. ”

When he said this, his mother's eyes stared at him vigorously, up and down, just like watching pork in the vegetable market. Zhou Fangyuan was helpless in his heart, and said in his heart What is this called? How old is he this year, just in his early twenties, yes, because he often has to participate in some business activities, and his mental age is obviously beyond his biological age, plus he often shaves, his chin is blue, and he looks like he is in his twenties and close to thirty years old...... However, this is not a reason to get married in a hurry!

But he can also understand his mother's worries, after all, since last year or the year before, the statement about the imbalance between men and women has been very loud, other places don't know, anyway, the local newspapers in Beitong have reported it several times, and it really has to be dug as a big news, and the result is not good, not to say, anyway, it is to surprise the people.

The imbalance between men and women is a serious demographic problem faced by China after entering the 20th century, and it has been alleviated after the 21st century, but with the passage of time, the imbalance between men and women has become more and more aggravated.

The imbalance between men and women will have an impact on the benign and stable operation of society and the social ethics and moral system, such as improper marriage, human trafficking, sexual crimes, and antisocial emotions. The main manifestation of this is that the age gap between male and female spouses is beginning to widen.

This is a very important issue, and it is related to the functioning of the whole country. Some experts also pointed out that the factors affecting the imbalance of the sex ratio of born babies are numerous and complex, such as fertility policies, fertility intentions, artificial technology identification and selection, and underreporting and concealment of female babies born. This is mainly due to the underreporting and concealment of female infants, and in combination with the family planning policy, the increase in the sex ratio at birth has become more pronounced. A large number of statistics show that in the case of undisturbed, the sex ratio of babies born in all countries in the world is basically the same, generally in the range of 102~107, that is, for every 100 female babies born, the number of male babies born is 102~107.

Demographers refer to this indicator as a constant value of the sex ratio at birth. Since the infant mortality rate for boys is slightly higher than for female infants, the ratio of males to females is almost equal by the age of marriage.

In countries with relatively small population bases, the shortage of male/female population can be solved through transnational marriage and male/female migration, but for the general public, transnational marriage is still not practical. Disproportionate imbalance can create serious obstacles to population reproduction, resulting in a serious shrinkage of the population.

In 1953, the first census was conducted in China, and men accounted for 51.82 per cent of the total population, while women accounted for 48.18 per cent. The average sex ratio of the 5~11 age group is 113.72, of which the age group with the lowest sex ratio is 110.45 at the age of 5 years old, and the age group with the highest sex ratio is 116.63 at the age of 10 years old.

According to statistics from the National Health and Family Planning Commission, there are 670 million women in China, accounting for one-fifth of the world's female population. The sex ratio at birth is the ratio of the total number of male and female babies born in a given period, and is usually expressed as the number of male babies per 100 female babies. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the sex ratio of China's birth population in 2015 was 113.51. In 2016, China's male population was 708.15 million and the female population was 674.56 million, with a sex ratio of 104.98 and a sex ratio of 112.88 at birth. This is the eighth consecutive decline in the sex ratio at birth since 2009.

In 2015, the sex ratio of the total birth population was 113.5, and the ratio of men to women in the age group of 0~19 years was 117.47, of which the age group with the highest imbalance ratio was 5~9 years old, and the ratio of men to women was 119.1. In the 20~39 age group, the ratio of men to women is 104.04, this age group is mainly the post-80s and 90s, and it is also the marriage-age group that feels the most pressure to get married, but the gender ratio of men and women in this age group is not unbalanced, but the lowest among all age groups.

In addition, in recent years, the imbalance between men and women has become a common problem faced by Chinese universities.

According to statistics, in 1957, female students accounted for 23.2 per cent of the total number of undergraduate students in ordinary colleges and universities in the country, but in 1980, three years after the resumption of the college entrance examination, only 23.4 per cent were still female. In the 10 years from 1995 to 2004, the proportion of female students increased from 35.4 per cent to 45.7 per cent. The year 2007 was a turning point, when the proportion of new enrolments of girls surpassed that of boys for the first time, reaching 52.9 per cent. There were 522 female champions, accounting for 51.84% of the total, and 485 male champions, accounting for 48.16% of the total, and the proportion of female champions continued to rise.

As we all know, the ratio of men to women in China's population is slightly imbalanced, and the 2011 census shows that 51.27% of the mainland population is male, and 48.73% is female. In colleges and universities, this ratio is reversed, and there is an inverted phenomenon. In the top students of the college entrance examination in various places, the proportion of female students far exceeds that of male students, and it is not surprising that the proportion of female students in colleges and universities in various parts of the country accounts for 60%~70% of the total number.

In order to change this situation, many colleges and universities have set a sex ratio in admissions in recent years, resulting in a phenomenon of "women are higher than men lower" on the score line, which has caused some feminist organizations to protest. In response to the imbalance between men and women, there are admissions discourses such as "it is recommended that female students do not take the examination", "the proportion of female students should not exceed 15%", "male students only", "female students are advised to report carefully", etc., which are all restrictions on individual majors in college admissions, and are also considered gender discrimination by the report.

However, in any case, the ratio of men to women in the country is actually stable within an acceptable range, which seems to be quite serious, but in fact it is okay, and it is not as serious as ordinary people think.

There are many reasons why marriage is difficult, and it is not just a matter of male to female ratio.

If you really want to talk about the imbalance between men and women, some countries are much more serious than China.

For example, my country's old neighbor Ah San, the imbalance between men and women is very serious.

In the country of curry, it is widely believed that sons not only carry on the responsibility of the family lineage, but are also believed to bring the souls of their parents to heaven after death. Of particular importance is the fact that the dowry of a curry bride is around Rs 150,000, and the adoption of a son can also claim a dowry at the time of marriage. As a result, curry people generally do not want girls, and abortions, sex selection, and other phenomena are common.

There is a rather frightening statistic, which is that in the last 20 years, at least 6 million female babies have been killed in the curry country due to the use of sex-selective abortion. Such an alarming number of baby girls disappear silently, and as a result, there is a serious imbalance in the sex ratio. According to the latest demographic statistics, the average male-to-female ratio in the country is 1,000:927. The ratio of males to females in the capital region is only 1,000:819, while the southern region of New Delhi, where the rich and wealthy are concentrated, has the largest gap between males and females in India, with a male-to-female sex ratio of 1,000:762 at birth.

In addition, there are also very serious related problems in Siam, in the southeast of our country, where the ratio of men to women is 1:2, and the number of women is twice as large as that of men, and many factors such as the social environment have made the number of Thai women who have been "oversupplied" less and less selective and marryable, and there are much more serious problems than in our country.

In addition, Qatar in the Middle East, with 90% more men than women, is the country with the greatest shortage of women. Women account for less than 1/4 of the total population, accounting for only 23.47%.

Latvia, where women make up 54% of the total population and 18% more women than men, is the country with the greatest shortage of men, so the biggest worry for young girls here is marriage.

Speaking of which, Latvian women have both the beauty of Mao women and the elegance of Western European women, and the general level of knowledge is high, so they should have been the lucky ones sought after and admired by many good men. But there are more girls and fewer boys, so they have to lower their requirements for choosing a mate again and again, and they are already satisfied if they can find a man who can make do. In recent years, many Latvian women want to go abroad to find their wishful husband, so the "dating Internet" and "international marriage agency" business is booming. However, it is not uncommon to see reports of Latvian women being deceived by the internet and illegal matchmaking into working in certain unhealthy professions.

In addition, there is also a very serious problem of the proportion of men and women in Mao. Speaking of which, Mao is also the largest country in the world in terms of land area, and it is also one of the countries with the smallest population density in the world. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Mao's population has been showing a negative growth trend. The demographic crisis in Mao's country is mainly manifested in the imbalance between men and women in Russian society, with more women than men and fewer men, and it is showing a trend of intensifying.

The results of the three all-Russian censuses of 1989, 2002 and 2010 showed that the ratio of males to females in Maoist countries was 1,000:1140, 1,000:1147 and 1,000:1163 respectively. Women make up 54 per cent of the total population and men 46 per cent. The number of men and women in Mao is more than 67 million and 77 million respectively, a difference of 10 million, which is very staggering for the 140 million people of Mao country.

The imbalance between men and women in Mao has caused a series of social problems, the most serious of which is "polygamy". A man once said that Russian men love to drink, have a short temper, and have a poor sense of responsibility, and the current situation of more women than men makes it difficult for Russian women to find a good man. Therefore, a good man like him naturally has the opportunity to maintain a substantive "marital relationship" with several women. A later statistical report corroborated his words: in the 2002 all-Russian census, 65,000 more women than men claimed to be married. This also means that at least tens of thousands of men are in a de facto "marriage" relationship with more than one woman.

Another social problem is the proliferation of transnational marriages.

The beauty and almost innate artistic temperament of Mao women have made the "Mao bride" a "hot commodity" in the "transnational marriage market". The "foreign marriage" of Mao women began in the 90s of the last century, and men from France, Spain, Italy, and the United States were the first choice for Mao girls to "marry outside". According to the statistics of the Ministry of Justice, in the past few years, 75,000 Maoist women have immigrated to the United States by marrying citizens of the United States, and their average age is 28 years old. Although foreign marriage can objectively alleviate the imbalance between men and women in China, many Maozi experts still expressed concern.

The reason is very simple, because most of the Maozi brides who marry outside are well-educated, young and beautiful elites. Therefore, the intensification of foreign marriage will have a negative impact on the overall population quality structure of Mao.

A similar situation exists with the white hair adjacent to Maozi, and the ratio of men to women is 0.88:1. The small Eastern European country of Baimao is a country that imports other strategic resources such as oil, natural gas, coal and steel from abroad in addition to timber. However, this country, with a population of only 10 million and a fairly poor natural resource, has another kind of resource ——— beauties that others envy. However, in recent years, similar to the massive brain drain from many developing* countries, the exodus of white-haired beauties has also become increasingly serious. For this reason, President Lukashenko even personally ordered to restrict the "export" of beauties in order to protect the "national strategic resource" of beauties.

Other countries, such as Ukraine, South Vietnam, Moldova, etc., have similar problems.

Especially in Moldova, in fact, in the history of Moldova, the integration of various ethnic groups is common, and now there are Romanian, Moldovan, Maozi, Bulgarian, Ukrainian and other ethnic groups living here. Beautiful girls are often the product of multi-ethnic integration, therefore, Moldovan girls are generally dignified and beautiful. It is known as the "capital of beauty". So Moldovan beauties often appear on the stage of major beauty pageant winners, and the ratio of men to women in the country is about 0.91:1.

It can be said that the development of human society to this day, because of various reasons, such as war, such as economy, such as geography, etc., many countries have the problem of imbalance between men and women, and my country also has such a situation, but it is relatively minor, but this does not become a reason for us to ignore this problem. As for the difficulty of getting married, in the final analysis, it is necessary to find the problem from yourself. Why can someone else marry or marry into the door? and not with some people?

If there are considerable problems, then there is no way, and no one can change the objective problems. What about the subjective?

Zhou Fangyuan's last life was an example of how difficult it was to get married, but he never felt that he couldn't get married because of the ratio of men and women...... Maybe some people don't dislike these, but he is far from encountering them. It is completely understandable that even ordinary people he met looked down on himself at that time.

With his current status and conditions, to put it mildly, if he is willing and let the wind go, the woman who wants to marry him can go from Beitong to the capital, so he doesn't think marriage is a very difficult thing. Mom was worried about herself at this time, it was completely unfounded, but Mom might have other ideas, but Zhou Fangyuan knew that he couldn't be too entangled with her in this aspect, otherwise he would have a hundred mouths that couldn't say Mom.

"I still have something to do, let's talk about it when it's over!"

Leaving a sentence, Zhou Fangyuan ran upstairs.

Leaving Zhou's mother standing in the living room by herself, looking at Zhou Fangyuan's back, she smiled helplessly, "This stinky boy is running quite fast." ”
