Inhalt
Behind the headlines a once-in-a-generation sexual and cultural revolution is taking place in the bars, cafes and streets of China's mega-cities. The author meets the young people behind the world's fastest-moving nation to unveil their attitudes towards love, life and sexuality. Young Chinese have new words to describe the world they live in: »little emperors« - bossy and selfish single men who have grown up under the one child policy, »leftovers« - women over 26 who aren't married; »love markets« - weekend gatherings where parents attempt to find husbands and wives for their children, match-make young singles and offer boyfriends for hire. Torn between the competing desires of realizing their own desires and fulfilling their filial responsibilities, the generation born during the economic reforms of the 1980s and 90s remain constrained by traditional expectations of marriage and parenthood. Steinfeld explores these tensions through a series of interviews including one with the twenty-something Dewei who discovered his homosexual identity as a teenager but refuses to disclose it to his parents.
