I agree somewhat, not to the points made in the article, but I am of staunch opinion that if a woman is still single after the age of 30, there must be something wrong with her.

If you think about it this is the only thing China can do - it already has much fewer women compared to men, so it has to encourage women to get married to the utmost degree as they are the limiting factor. If they were to do the same campaign with men, they'd be screwed because even if all these men want to get married, there won't be enough women to go around.

That's why they have to do this. The wording may be... crude, but the intent, from a sociological point of view, is sound.

Actually, men in China ARE screwed because there are approximately 20% more men than women. Because of the general consensus in society that men are disposable, their lives will just rot away and you will see many more outrageous news coming from China. Poor understanding of gender roles on the parents' part resulted in the suffering of millions of men in China. Sad but true.
