For a modern woman like Liao, who is highly educated, highly paid, and independent, it's up to her whether she wants to work, marry, have kids, and even divorce. But it is all those choices that make it hard to make a decision. Men are affected too, not knowing how to respond to this type of woman.
像廖輝英一樣的戰後新女性，高教育程度、高收入、高自主意識，要不要工作、要不要結婚與生養孩子，甚至要不要離婚… …，都掌握在自己手上；卻又因可選擇的路太多，反倒舉棋不定，難以抉擇，連帶牽動另一性也左支右絀，不知如何應對。
