One thing I will say:

Chinese are very much focused on family.

When you are dating someone, there is always the (even likelihood) of marriage.

It is much more focused than in America.

I guess that is why the Chinese government recently re-enforced their one child edict. They are beginning to soften their stance but have not given up the law on one family, one child.

Don’t give the U.S. Gov’t any ideas. They’ll spend 10 billions to come to some predetermined conclusion, then make a few laws to address the ‘problem’.

I am assuming that they are all married couples. I haven’t gotten a peck in 2 years.

When I was in college, I belonged to a Christian ministry called the "Navigators". The Navs had some different beliefs than some other campus ministries and one was a ban on dating. Others mockingly called them the "Neverdaters".

Reminds me of a Nav summer workshop we had and one female student said to another one. "Why do Nav girls envy garbage?"

The second girl had a puzzled look and said "I dunno. Why?" The first one said, "Because at least the garbage gets taken out once a week."

Kinda explains why the ministry attracted far more men than women. Personally, I could understand why they had the ban (dating can take your mind off Christ and lead to some very awkward situations) but I did not agree with it. Telling young men and women not to date is kind of harsh and not entirely biblical. If the Bible does not specifically condemn something, in most cases I see no point in Christian groups forbidding it.
