Young people doubt marriage

Many young people in China’s cities are growing skeptical about marriage. The reluctance is even stronger among women than men, according to a survey by the Communist Youth League. Some 44 percent of the women surveyed said they did not want to marry or were unsure whether they wanted to tie the knot, DPA reported. Among men, the figure was just under 25 percent. The Youth League had surveyed 2905 women and men between the ages of 18 and 26 in various cities.
