Recommendation

Reproductive rights cause controversy almost anywhere in the world, and China is no exception. In China, single women don’t have access to assisted reproductive technologies such as egg freezing and surrogacy. But as they earn higher salaries and become better-educated, China’s single ladies won’t take no for an answer. Instead, more and more women travel abroad to freeze their eggs or look for surrogates. TMTpost’s special editorial team takes a closer look at this trend and the consulting and agency business resulting from it. getAbstract recommends this article to anyone interested in social trends in China.

Take-Aways

  • In China, the state denies single women access to assisted reproduction options such as egg freezing and surrogacy.
  • An increasing number of women in China are resisting the social pressure to get married early and have kids shortly after.
  • More and more well-educated, high-income single women travel abroad for assisted reproductive technologies.
