500 Thousands Leftovers in Beijing
Five hundred thousands women stepped in the 'leftover' category in Beijing. Still single in mid-thirties, the truth starts to sink in that a male partner may never appear. Researchers have been concerned on the gender disparity due to the one child per family policy. In many rural areas male to female children could be as high as 120:100. It's interesting to see in the end, it's the female who have more difficulties in finding their mates.
