Dear HitHard,
That is really hilarious.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in most Asian cultures, isn't being a single woman at 30 a bad thing. You know like being an old maid? This probably makes sense, especially when coupled with these statements...

Uninspired by the men she's met but facing social pressure to get married, the 30-year-old Taipei office worker will hold the reception next month in honor of just one person.

Taiwanese women are marrying later and less often as their economic status advances,

"If I had a steady boyfriend, I wouldn't do this," Chen said. "it would be offensive to him, anyway."

hypergamy, feminism, cultural norms. This is probably the only marriage this woman will have, someone get her some cats, stat!

I read that the responses from other women are both sympathetic and positive.

When are they ever not? A woman has to kill her baby to get other women to criticize her. Even then she still gets "understood".
