The writer Chu Yi recently spoke for all single urban women in an essay of hers: "Being single may be just another way of life for a man, but for a woman it's a wait, an anxious wait for it to end, to see her lovely features captured in a wedding photograph before they fade."
最近女作家朱衣在一篇散文中，便為都會單身女性作了代言：「單身，對男人來說可以是一種習慣；對女人而言，卻只能是一種等待；焦慮的等待著它結束，好讓自己的花容月貌及時被嵌入結婚相框。」
