Sheng nu

Gender imbalance in China, long expected due to 30+ years of one-child policy, is making itself felt. With millions more men than women, single women are under increasing pressure to marry.

Parents or grandparents bring pictures  to "marriage markets" and look for high quality husband material if their daughter isn't getting the job done.

Huang, 34 years old and still single, became a Christian in her 20's when a job associate shared the gospel with her. She doesn't want the same things in a husband that she did before. 

"It’s a universal issue among single first-generation Christians. The singles group at Huang’s church, Chengdu Early Rain Reformed, even set up a formal debate last spring on the question of whether Christians should attend these non-Christian setups." 

She has reluctantly told her parents she will not date non-Christian men. Btw, "sheng nu" means "left-over women."
