In one media report, a doctor was quoted as saying: "It has been discovered that if women who have been single for a long time have introverted personalities, and are self-absorbed, their emotional life often becomes very bizarre. As they repress their sexual desires, their hormone secretions fall out of balance, and they are susceptible to tumors in the reproductive system.
有媒體報導引述醫師的話：「發現長期單身婦女若個性內向、自我封閉，性情往往變得十分古怪，在壓抑性衝動之下，荷爾蒙分泌失調，容易產生生殖系統子宮肌瘤、子宮癌的癥狀。
