【厦门韦博英语】"剩女"门槛定在27岁 招大龄女不满

 

China has upset its young female population by labelling those who fail to marry by the time they are 27 as ‘left over woman’.

中国将27岁还没嫁出去的女孩称作“剩女”,这一称号让这一女性群体很是沮丧。
Growing number of educated, professionalurban females aged 27-30 have ‘failed’ to find a husband.
在城市里,越来越多受过良好教育的职业女性已经年过27,即将步入而立之年,却还未能找到另一半。
‘Pretty girls do not need a lot of education to marry into a rich and powerful family. But girls with an average or ugly appearance will find it difficult,’ reads one article titled ‘Leftover Women Do Not Deserve Our Sympathy’.
一篇题为《剩女不值得同情》的文章写道:“漂亮女孩不需要接受高等教育就能嫁入豪门。但这对于长相普通或丑陋的女孩却很难。”
The derogatory name has caused an outcry among millions of ambitious young and educated females who claim they have been thrown on the scrap heap - and who bemoan the low qualityof suitors.
这一带有贬义的称号引来了数百万受过教育的年轻女性的强烈抗议,这些野心勃勃的女性称她们被扔到了垃圾堆里,悲叹自己的追求者素质太差。

这一年龄段的未婚男性比例高出三分之一,但是中国男性一般都会选择年龄和学历都比自己低的人结婚。
‘There is an opinion that A-quality guys will find B-quality women, B-quality guys will find C-quality women, and C-quality men will find D-quality women,’ Huang Yuanyuan, a confident and single 29-year-old who works in a Beijing radio station, told the BBC.
黄圆圆(音译)今年29岁,在北京一家广播电台工作,是个自信的单身女孩。她告诉英国广播公司的记者说:“人们认为,A男(条件最好的男子)会找B女结婚,B男会找C女结婚,C男会找D女结婚。”
‘The people left are A-quality women and D-quality men,’ she said.
她说:“剩下的是A女(条件最好的女子)和D男(条件最差的男子)。”
But the Chinese Bridget Joneses are fighting back, demanding the government ban the ‘left over women’ term.
不过,现在中国的布里吉特•琼斯们正在进行反击,要求禁止使用“剩女”一词。
