Summary for women in China

Summary :

China is the only country in the world where more women commit suicide than men, according to World Health Organization statistics. The suicide rate in rural areas is three times that in the cities. Marriage is a big issue where traditional attitudes still prevail. Most marriages operate like business deals, in which the groom parents buy the bride and she becomes part of their family. For most women, suicide is the only way out of unhappy marriage. The divorce would be a problem for them. They attempt suicide to ask for better treatment from their husbands. In rural areas, sons are preferred to daughters, because only the sons stay in the village to look after elderly parents. When the daughters marry then move to their husband family. It’s become a serious and big problem and they need to solve it immediately.

Mean Idea:

The Chinese women attempt suicide because of the traditional marriage problems. They solve their problems by suicide which makes China the only country in the world where more women commit suicide than men.

My Comment:

In my opinion, the rate of the suicide is increasing and it’s become a serious problem and the Chinese government must find a way to solve this problem.
