Marriage in China





     In Confucian thought, marriage is of significance both to families and to society.
     From the perspective of a Confucian family, marriage brings together families and continues the family line of the paternal clan. This is generally why having a boy is more important than a girl when giving birth. Therefore, the benefits and disadvantages of any marriage are important to the entire family, not just the individual couples. Socially, the married couple is thought to be the basic unit of society.
    The modern Chinese marriage is becoming more and more same like American marriage. But maintain the most of traditional way.
