[quote=JIMMYB,240532]First, let's look at a piece of news released on Chinanews.cn April 28, 2007:

"They look beautiful and are regarded as white collars having a nice job in offices. Most of them have a good educational background. However, when talking about marriage, they are not as happy as they appear to be. Although entering into their 30s, most of them still remain single.

The number of these women is increasing in society. Parents and relatives worry about their marriage. Under their parents' pressure, they have to attend various kinds of matchmaking activities. Recently, such activities have become a common sight in some parks in Beijing."

After reading this piece of news, I have been wondering why these cute white-collar women are troubled by marriage problem. Some of them have passed 30, but remains single. More than worse, they have to bear great pressure and stress from their families and society. Some troublesome bigmouth defames them as "Leftover Ladies".

Being excellent both in appearance and intellectually, why do they confront marriage problem? Some people hold the opinion that theser white-collar women set a very high marriage standard and their high expectations for the potential or future husbands  far exceed  the reality.
Some poeple say that these white-collar women are too busy and enclosed in offices.  Thus,  they have a very limited social network.

The survey also finds that far more  white-collar women are troubled by marriage problem than the male counterparts. Therefore, many white-collar women are forced to attend  various match-making activities.

Do these white-collar women set a too high marriage standard? Should they lower their  marrage standards in choosing a husband?
  Should they become disillusioned with ideal marriage? What is your viewpoint?
