i have a brother, if you are born in a city, get married is cheaper, because the gender is more balanced, but in rural china it is very expensive to get married, for gender imbalance is high, so foid can demand high price, they demand high bride price, they demand 2-3 storey house or an apartment in the city, a car,so the boy's parents have to work back-breaking to get their son married.
now chinese people dare not have 2 sons unless you are rich
in terms of western culture, i think almost every young person in china has been influenced, even the most remote village in tibet and xinjiang has broadband internet and 4G coverage now, every young person has a smart phone and watch tiktok,as you know tiktok is a chinese company!
young foids love to watch pretty boys in tiktok, they call them "xiaogege" means "little elder brother", a pretty boy can have hundreds of thousands followers in tiktok
there are many pretty boys in tiktok china, a footage of them can have tens of thousands comments
