Hong Fincher explained for YCW Shanghai how a combination of multiple factors — skyrocketing house prices, legal setbacks to married women’s property rights, a widening gender income gap, and a media campaign against unmarried “leftover” women — have contributed to a fall in status and material well-being of Chinese women relative to men.
