Xiaokang Magazine released a survey on the marriage and sexual happiness of Chinese people on Oct. 31. The survey was launched nationwide regarding people born in the 1980s, 1970s, 1960s and 1950s.

The survey shows that people born in 1980s have the strongest feeling of happiness in marriage. However, the stability of their marriage is low. This generation, who respects themselves more, show a new "high quality and low stability" trend of Chinese marriages.

Strong feeling of happiness but low stability

The report shows that in all age brackets, people born in the 1980s have the strongest feeling of happiness toward their marriage, standing at more than 81 percent. This figure exceeded the average level of all other age brackets.

People born in the 1980s have stronger feelings of happiness toward their marriage compared with those born in the 1970s, while members of the 1970s generation have stronger feelings of happiness towards their marriage compared with those born in the 1960s.

Although the 1980s age bracket has the strongest feeling of happiness towards their marriages, the stability of their marriages is low. Data from the No.2 Court of Chongwen District shows that the 1980s age bracket is becoming the "main force" of divorces. Divorce cases of people born in the 1980s accounted for one-fourth of the total 360 divorce cases received by the court in 2009, and the average annual growth rate of divorces of the 1980s age bracket stood at nearly 50 percent.

Nearly 90 percent of couples divorced due to personality clashes and 50 percent of couples divorced in less than three years after they got married. If we analyze the divorce cases of the 1980s age bracket, we will find that impulsive marriage and rational divorce have become the distinctive characteristics of marriage for people born in the 1980s.

66 percent of the 1980s generation is happy with their sex lives

The survey showed that five factors, including adequate income, healthy and lovely kids, satisfactory sex, mutual loyalty and a sound relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, are the most important in a happy marriage.

The 1980s generation ranks "satisfactory sex" as the second to adequate income as the most important factor among the five for a happy marriage, ranking before healthy and lovely kids. Compared with respondents from other age brackets, the 1980s generation shows the highest satisfaction in sex life after marriage, and more than 66 percent said that they are strongly satisfied or moderately satisfied with their marital sex lives. The main reason behind the 34 percent who said they were not very happy with their sex lives is high work pressure.

1980s generation is the most conservative to extramarital affairs.

According to the survey, the 1980s generation are the most happy with their sex lives, but they are relatively conservative in terms of extramarital sex and extramarital affairs. Among the respondents from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s age brackets, only about 5 percent of the 1980s generation had extramarital sex, which is the lowest among the other groups, and the 1960s generation had the highest rate of extramarital sex, standing at more than 6 percent.

Nearly 73 percent of the 1980s generation said that they have no tolerance for the extramarital sex behaviors of spouses, which is the highest among the three polled groups. Only about 66 percent of the 1960s said the same, which remains the lowest.
