Ku Ling thinks that if single people rush off and get married simply because of an empty apartment and pressure from parents and relatives, then "the rise in the unmarried rate isn't necessarily a bad thing," because at least it shows that people today are deciding for themselves about marriage and are taking it more seriously.
苦苓認為，若是單身男女不因空洞的住屋、親人的壓力而草草結婚，「那未婚率的提高未嘗不是好事」，因為這表示現代人對婚姻有完全的自主性，也更認真的面對它。
