This is what I heard from the teacher. It's true. She said that she had a classmate. When she was born, her biological father saw that she was a girl and lost her. When her mother woke up, her biological father lied to her mother that the child was born dead. Finally, her mother learned the truth from other relatives. Just three days after giving birth, I got out of bed and looked for her everywhere. Finally, I found out that it was a thirtysomething in the same village. And this man, who has never finished talking about his child, has given up smoking and drinking for this child and spent all his money on this child. It's time for her mother to make a big decision, that is, divorce her biological father and marry this man ten years older than herself. Her mother told her biological father that even people who don't want their daughters won't take too much responsibility for themselves. I heard. I am also very touched, but on the other hand, it also reflects that the idea of son preference is still very common. Although it won't be like the above, it is very common that many parents don't treat their children equally.
Just because of the preference for boys at that time, many men in rural areas can't find wives now, but now many men can't marry wives. There are still many old people here who prefer boys to girls. Old ideas can never be changed. If this continues, single men will continue. It may be many years before they know that this situation can be improved gradually. It's just that men who are single are in pain. There are not so many women as Ben, and you can't marry a daughter-in-law if you have money. Make you like boys more than girls.
