Co-renting with opposite sex vogue 1流行;风行;时髦


 


Co-renting with members of the opposite sex has become very popular among young people in big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.


 


"Young women had better not choose to co-rent. Even if they have chosen to, they should keep their integrity and maintain a sober mind清醒的头脑 in order to avoid unnecessary trouble," experts expressed their worry.


 


They compared the co-renting phenomenon to "dancing on a steel wire." Experts point out that improving tolerance 2 and decreasing societal pressures have created the possibility for this type of cohabitation同居.


 


In Beijing, the bulk of these co-renters are young people without families in the area. Others have families in Beijing, but their houses are too small, or they simply want freedom. Most of the co-renters are young white-collar workers, often in the media industry or with foreign companies; they tend to hold at least a bachelor's degree.


 


Some experts said that with the evolution of people's beliefs and the development of a more mobile urban population, co-renting would become increasingly common.


 


A burgeoning 3 fashion, this phenomenon directly challenges traditional concepts of family, marriage and ethics 4. The public has two distinct attitudes towards co-renting. Some tolerate the trend, or even applaud赞成 it, claiming that it fosters the pursuit freedom and individuality. However, others reject the notion. They consider co-renting a defiant反抗的and avant-garde前卫的behavior that encourages sexual promiscuity 5乱交, and will corrupt 6 public morals and hinder妨碍 the societal progress.
