作者摘录了1957年对美国人如何看待单身的调查结果,结论很有戏剧性。80%的受访者认为,不婚人士要么“有病”,要么“作风有问题”,要么“发神经”。
America 55 years ago had an adult population with more than 70% married, so it's understandable that most people felt that was the norm. But still: "sick, immoral or neurotic?" How times change!
55年前,美国成年人的结婚率高达70%,所以大部分人会有这种看法也是可以理解的。但话说回来,“有病、不道德或发神经”,这些字眼未免有些过头了吧?时代变化真是太快了!
One obvious question is how this demographic shift in America over the past half-century compares with other regions around the world. The data suggests it's clearly not just an American phenomenon.
一个明显的问题是,美国人口这半个世纪以来在这方面的转变和世界其他地区相比情况如何呢?资料证明这并不是美国独有的现象。
In Stockholm, Sweden, 60% of households have only one occupant. In London and Paris, singletons number roughly 50% of total households (about the same as Manhattan and Washington, D.C.).
在瑞典的斯德哥尔摩,60%的住家都只有一口人。伦敦和巴黎的单身人士也占到总户数的50%(几乎和曼哈顿及华盛顿特区的情况一致)。
In Taiwan, singletons have already topped 42% of the over-20 population.
