Women stand up against marriage pressure (4/5)

Women carry signs during a protest against marriage pressure in Shanghai, Feb 4, 2015. The sign reads “Mom, do not force me into marriage when I go back home for the New Year. I am responsible for my own happiness.” The holiday of Spring Festival, China’s Lunar New Year, is also a time when many parents will arrange blind dates or force their sons or daughters to get married.
