Over 27? Unmarried? Female? In China, you could be labelled a "leftover woman" by the state - but some professional Chinese women these days are happy being single. 已经过了27岁？未婚？女性？如果这些你都符合，那在中国你就会被打上“剩女”的标签。不过如今很多中国女性白领表示：我单身我快乐。 Huang Yuanyuan is working late at her job in a Beijing radio newsroom. She's also stressing out about the fact that the next day, she'll turn 29. 黄媛媛（音译）在北京的一家广播的编辑室加班至深夜。还有一个事实让她倍感压力山大：明天她就要迎来29岁了。 "Scary. I'm one year older," she says. "I'm nervous." Why? "Because I'm still single. I have no boyfriend. I'm under big pressure to get married." 她说：“我觉得非常恐惧，我又老了一岁了，我很焦虑。” 为什么会恐惧焦虑？她这样回答道：“因为我还单身，我没有男朋友，我顶着巨大的结婚压力。” Huang is a confident, personable young woman with a good salary, her own apartment, an MA from one of China's top universities, and a wealth of friends. 黄小姐是一位非常自信迷人的年轻女性，工资薪水高，住在自己的公寓里，拥有中国重点大学的硕士学位，身边还有一大群朋友。 Still, she knows that these days, single, urban, educated women like her in China are called "sheng nu" or "leftover women" - and it stings. |
