Chapter 871: Yin Yue, I Speak on Behalf of Women

Li Liang's voice was clear and crisp, yet it revealed helplessness.

It made many women in the live broadcast room feel inexplicably heartbroken.

This is a soul that has been hurt.

Thinking of his previous life, Yang Qing sighed in his heart.

Given Daxia's current economic situation, marriage is destined to be a costly affair.

Marriage costs are high, childbearing costs are high, yet income levels remain those of a developing country.

Don't look at Daxia now being so fierce, but the main economy still relies on primary and secondary manufacturing.

A society with very low value-added production cannot support a high-welfare society.

All of this must be borne by individuals.

Naturally, personal life experience is not so wonderful.

This is still because Yang Qing came up with long-term rentals; real estate hasn't fully unfolded a big plunder era.

Otherwise, ordinary people would only have a harder life.

Yang Qing understands these, but ordinary people in Daxia do not.

They merely feel that living costs have risen too fast, while their own income growth lags, making life difficult.

"Friend, do you have anything else you want to say?"

Li Liang vented a little, then put away his emotions.

He is a broadcaster; emotions must be controlled well.

This is professional competence.

"Yang Lao, I won't ask anymore; I'll leave the remaining opportunities to others."

"Being able to talk directly with Yang Lao today is an honor."

"Thank you, Yang Lao; otherwise people like us would probably never have such a chance in a lifetime."

"Big shots are too far from us, as far as being separated by thousands of mountains and rivers."

"Sometimes, we are clearly only a few hundred meters apart, yet it feels like two worlds."

"Ah! I won't say more; goodbye, Yang Lao."

Li Liang knew how dangerous his words were, but he said them anyway.

Fortunately, Yang Lao protects them well; based only on voice, it's hard to pinpoint him.

Li Liang's words, Yang Qing naturally understands; sometimes when he thinks of them, he also feels quite sad.

This topic cannot be delved into deeply.

Although he is strong, he hasn't reached the point where he can say whatever he wants like a heavenly king.

However, although he cannot speak openly, Yang Lao can point this child toward a bright path.

"Child, goodbye; come play in Qiongzhou when you have time."

"This place is especially suitable for people who do artistic work."

"All right, Panpan, take another voice call."

Yang Panpan, this tool person, casually picked one and then took it over.

A somewhat indignant female voice emerged.

Yin Yue is really angry; this Yang Lao obviously has opinions about us girls.

In several conversations, he indirectly said they were not good.

Before there was no chance; now that it's connected to me, we have to talk it out.

However, the live broadcast room has hundreds of millions of people; she won't speak recklessly.

"Yang Lao, whether from the historical experiences of various countries or from our own situation in Daxia."

"Men and women have natural contradictions in many aspects."

"For example, men hope women stay home to tend the household and raise children, while women wish to be independent and strong, wanting equal work; for this they may even avoid childbearing and delay marriage age."

"Some even delay marriage for their careers, becoming older leftover women."

"This situation directly leads to a decline in birth rates."

"This is the case worldwide."

"Our Daxia has also reached this crossroads."

"Large numbers of leftover women are increasing, DINK families are increasing, and the marriage age is also growing."

"The era of low birth rates is right before our eyes."

"The experience and lessons of South Korea, where life is relatively good, are profoundly instructive."

"For Daxia's future, shouldn't we give women more support?"

"Must we watch helplessly as Daxia falls into the low birth rate trap and the aging society trap?"

"I believe the whole society should treat women a little better."

Yang Qing, hearing this, already knows what he wants to say.

"I've said it before; this is a trend, hard to change."

"As I said before, current education makes highly educated women, upon entering society, become prominent; plus survival issues, they find it hard in the short term to consider marriage."

"Unless we restrict women's education—is that realistic?"

"Our Daxia cannot do things that suppress women."

"So, this is hard to change."

"Even if social resources are tilted toward women, this cannot change the fundamental problem."

"It might even provoke a strong backlash from men due to unfairness."

At that time, for women, it might become even worse.

Looking at the situation in developed countries makes it clear.

The high fertility rate period of Daxia has already passed.

In the future, low fertility rates, even negative population growth, will become the norm.

As for the aging issue you mentioned, it can only be resolved with time.

In thirty to fifty years, the population age structure will naturally balance.

Eventually it will self-adjust to a reasonable range.

As for directing social resources toward women, that's impossible and shouldn't be done.

If women become too dominant, men will lose their vigor.

Don't forget, defending the country mainly relies on men; if men lose their vigor, military strength will run into trouble.

If military strength runs into trouble, Daxia will face serious problems.

It could even lead to chaos and self-destruction.

I'm not looking down on women, but in this area women are not up to the task.

This is an innate issue, not something that can be resolved by shouting.

Let's wait until women become the main force in the military before discussing this.

Otherwise, no one will support such a disastrous scheme.

Disaster to the country and its people?

Yin Yue is truly angry this time.

Yang Lao, you're discriminating against women.

Yang Qing put on a stern face.

This is reality; if you make the men's basketball team play the women's basketball team, would the women's team agree?

If you make the men's football team play the women's football team, would the women's team agree?

Let's not discuss whether they'd agree; just ask: can the women's football and basketball teams win against men?

Even if we give them preferential resources, can they win?

Women are naturally different from men; disregarding this fact makes any talk nonsense.

Since men dominate this world, we must respect men's rights.

Harming men's rights undermines the nation's stable foundation.

Because it is led by men.

If the nation's foundation is shaken, society will inevitably descend into chaos, and in a chaotic country women will suffer terribly.

Go see those chaotic places—what kind of life do women have there!

Gender equality is not an issue; Daxia's men are mostly chauvinistic, but yielding to women is fine.

But if you want to ride on men's heads, I think you're crazy.

If men give up, can you still fare well?
