For thousands of years, whether ancient or modern Or foreign, men should be married, women should marry, and marriage and family are "natural and righteous" things. In recent years, the current situation of marriage has made people worried, and the marriage rate and the divorce rate of repeatedly reaching new lows are indeed incredible in china's cultural environment of extremely particular etiquette and face, and people have begun to reflect on the meaning of marriage and the root cause of the low level of marriage.
In general, this problem is caused by two aspects, on the one hand, the material aspect, on the other hand, the spiritual aspect, the material aspect is reflected in the current high pressure of life and the high cost of living. The spiritual aspect is reflected in the fact that modern young people are highly educated, pay special attention to life and freedom, and the more cultured and thinking people are, the more they understand the importance of life and freedom.
In recent years, the number of marriages has shown a rapid downward trend, and it is expected to hit a new low in more than 40 years in 2021, the house price is too high, the bride price is too high, the cheating rate is high, there are many women and boys, the feminism is rampant, the concept of marriage is weak, the sense of selfish responsibility is not strong, etc., which is the main reason for the low marriage rate.
According to data from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, in 2020, the marriage rate fell to 5.8 ‰, which is already the lowest value in 40 years. In the first three quarters of 2021, 5.886 million pairs were married in China, down 1.245 million pairs from the same period in 2019, a decrease of 17.5%, which can be described as a sharp decline in the marriage rate, according to experts and scholars estimate that the number of marriage pairs in the fourth quarter of 2021 is about 1.7 million, so we can calculate that the number of marriage pairs for the whole year last year was about 7.586 million. According to this marriage data calculation, the marriage rate in 2021 or about 0.56 ‰, that is lower than the marriage rate in 2020, can be described as a new low for more than 40 years, the so-called marriage rate is a certain period of time (usually refers to a year) The ratio of the number of marriages to a certain range of people in the same period is to indicate the degree of frequent marriage.
The gradual decline in the marriage rate has its deeper reasons.
First, the house price is too high, almost empty the wallet of the second generation, and marriage always has to have a marriage room, many young people have been pushing back in marriage, want to have their own house and then get married, but the reality is very cruel, if the parents can not help, how can they afford it? So year after year, I have become an older youth, my heart to get married is also cold, and the high house price has shattered the dreams and future of young people!
Second, now some rural bride price is too high, because there are more women and boys, some places the bride price is often hundreds of thousands, and even have a car and a house, which undoubtedly makes some poor marriageable young people unable to marry a daughter-in-law.
Third, in this materialistic society, all kinds of temptations, all kinds of comparisons, women want to be handsome and rich, even if they are married, they are also a mountain to look over a mountain, resulting in a higher and higher rate of infidelity, so that many young people fall into fear of marriage.
Fourth, now people make their own money and are dashing, their thinking has changed, their concept of marriage is weak, they all like to enjoy, they all want others to be good to themselves, they are not willing to be responsible, or because they are too selfish and will not tolerate.
Fifth, now the pressure of life is too great, endless overtime, day after day 996, high climbing house prices, low salaries, overwhelmed, how can there be the desire to get married and have children, think about it is afraid, can support themselves is already lucky, marriage is really all kinds of trouble, but also to endure the current women's unreasonable trouble and all kinds of demand, there is really no need to swim in this muddy water. After economic development and material abundance, people are reluctant to marry again after they clearly see the nature of human nature.
In summary, the pressure on young people is too great, education, medical care, employment, housing, and people's worldly vision of poverty and love for the rich, etc. These are all obstacles for young people to get married, so that most young people no longer have the motivation to struggle, and they are also afraid of marriage, so the marriage rate will continue to decline, and the downward momentum seems to be unstoppable.
