Description This VICE report explores the difficulties of dating for men in China, largely due to the one child policy that resulted in many more male babies being born than females. (The first born son is expected to care for elderly parents, so couples without sons in effect have no “retirement” plan. When the Chinese government addressed their overpopulation problem by declaring that only one child per family was allowed, many people would commit infanticide or, once the technology became widely available, have elective abortions if the child was female.)
