The Westernize Marriage in China

According to this topic, there is no doubt that I should introduce the status of men and women in China at first. In the traditional custom, the status of men usually higher than women because most people thought man was stronger than woman in many aspects. So at the ancient time, the wives usually listened to the husbands and just follow him in daily life, so they have no choice of their marriage. Most families were stable; the divorce rate was very low. But as the development of society, the western culture is flooding into China including the custom of marriage. Women are treated as well as men and even sometimes better than men. So they can choose their marriage gradually, and the divorce is also one of the aspects which reflect the infiltration of western culture. In recent decades, the divorce rate has multiplied geometrically becuse many women have the power can choose their husbands; in contrast, sometimes the men can’t choose their wives because of the large number. In addition, the rate of violence and dispute of families also shows an upward trend. So at the same time of social progress, we must consider these questions which have happened.

回复删除I don't think that the women right to choose their husbands is the reason for the high rate of divorce. woman is a human being that has the right to choose as men. But maybe there are other factors in the society
回复删除I agree with Safa, maybe Cary's opinion about women right is a small aspect of reason.
回复删除I agree with Chen, because in the past, women did not have rights to choose husband and divorce. Many men had several wives, and they may married with the person who they didn't love. With the women having more rights and one man can only have one wife, the divorce rate increases.
回复删除In Thai society, some conservative people believe that being a man is better than being a woman. The reason is they believe that if you did well in your past lives, you'll be a man. On the other hand, if you were born as a woman, it means that you did something wrong in your past lives.
回复删除I think that Chian and Korea have the almost same custom about marriage because Korea was influenced from China a lot.
