Mainland girl uses public pressure to force guy to marry her. What would you do if you were him?

Location: Xiamen, subway station.





Girl even has engagement ring ready. Look at guy's facial expression though, anything but happy. The crowd got bigger and bigger, cheering at the girl for her 'strength and guts', her ruthlessness was a 'virtue' in PRC. It paid off, the guy yielded. Look at his face, though......anything but happy. She won face, plenty.

The girl obviously is the offensive, aggressive type, only cares about what she wants, me-cult, no consideration for the guy's feeling. The guy is the exact opposite. If he goes through with it, and have a kid (which is probably one of the THINGS she is after, he walks right into hell.

The poor bastard - actually both of them but she doesn't know it yet, she's just relieved she'll be married before she's 28 and the family won't lose face - is staring down the barrel of a long miserable marriage.

I know because one Beijing guy told me this, exact same scenario, although probably the proposal was less dramatic (for the girl), or traumatic (for the guy). Their son was 5 years old, cute. Typical middle class family, university educated he was, his pretty wife apparently wasn't. He said (his wife and kid walking behind), 'if it wasn't for the son I would have long gotten a divorce'. She looked pretty happy though.

I never understood before why those public proposals are so popular, now maybe this explains it. It makes it harder to say no.
