  Modern day misogyny at its finest. Women in China are not considered suitable to be a wife if they outshine their husband in achievement or brilliance.
  
  Why do you think China still keeps this state of mind about women's roles in marriage/the world? Do you think it will change in the future? How?

  Honestly, I was more saddened by this article than offended. This problem isn't simply one of misogyny, but one of population statistics and industrial changes. However, this kind of attitude of left-overs hurts men and women.
