Preamble:
In recent years, the change in the concept of marriage and the transformation of social structure have led to the emergence of some new phenomena in the marriage market. Among them, it is difficult for rural men to find a partner, which has become one of the hot topics. In contrast, marriage in cities is more equal, and women have higher conditions for choosing a mate, while men at the bottom have a harder time finding a suitable partner for them. Such a phenomenon has aroused widespread concern and heated discussions from all walks of life. So, what is the reason for this phenomenon, and how to solve the problem of rural men having difficulty finding a partner? Let's take a closer look.
First, it is difficult for rural boys to marry daughters-in-law, and many people face the dilemma of being single
With the continuous development of society, people's concept of marriage is also undergoing subtle changes. Against this backdrop, more and more young people are choosing to postpone marriage, or even choose not to get married. And for rural areas, marriage has always been a very important thing and an indispensable task. Therefore, in such an environment, it is becoming more and more difficult for rural boys to marry daughters-in-law, and a considerable number of people are even facing the dilemma of being single.
In fact, it is not for nothing that it is difficult for a rural boy to marry a daughter-in-law. On the one hand, with the large-scale outflow of rural labor, fewer and fewer young people remain in rural areas, and the vast majority of those left behind are elderly and women. On the other hand, with the large-scale outflow of people from rural areas, many women have also chosen to go out to work, so that there is a serious problem of "more men than women" in the rural marriage market.
Second, women in the second and third marriages in rural areas are popular, and the issue of dowry has become a difficult problem
In the rural marriage market, women in the second and third marriages tend to be more popular, and it is easy to find a suitable partner for them. In contrast, women who are not yet married will face a certain amount of pressure and even be treated coldly. In such an environment, the issue of dowry has also become a problem for many families, because many male families hope to find a woman who is married for the second and third marriages, so that the original family needs to pay a relatively high bride price and dowry.
In fact, it is not without reason that women in rural areas who marry second and third marriages are popular. On the one hand, these women have experienced emotional tempering and have a deeper understanding of marriage, so they will be more tolerant and understanding in marriage. On the other hand, with the continuous progress of society, people's concepts are also quietly changing, and more and more people are beginning to accept the concept of marriage of second and third marriage, so that women in second and third marriage will naturally be welcomed by more people.
Third, urban marriage plus equality, it is more difficult for low-level men to find a partner
In contrast, the urban marriage market is a bit more complex. In cities, both men and women have more choices, and marriage is more equal. Therefore, in the urban marriage market, the conditions for women to choose a mate will be relatively high, while the men at the bottom will face greater challenges and find it more difficult to find a suitable partner for themselves.
In fact, it is more difficult for low-level men to find a partner, not only in the countryside, but also in the cities. In the urban marriage market, in addition to economic conditions, education and skills are also a very important part, and men who do not have enough education and skills often face greater employment pressure and marital difficulties. Therefore, while we pay attention to the marital plight of rural men, we cannot ignore the low-level men in the cities, and we should pay attention to and solve them together.
Epilogue:
The difficulty of finding a partner for men in rural areas reflects the stereotype of men in society and some of the existing problems in society. Therefore, when solving such problems, we cannot blindly emphasize the status and rights of women and ignore the plight of men in the marriage market. On the contrary, we should look at marriage issues from an equal perspective, and we should pay attention to men's feelings and dilemmas, and work together to solve them.
In order to completely solve the problem that rural men are difficult to find a partner, in fact, the most fundamental way is to narrow the social class gap and the gap between the rich and the poor, so that everyone can enjoy equal development opportunities and the right to choose marriage, so that we can truly achieve marriage equality and happiness.
