The ratio of men to women in Sichuan is more women than men. What is the reason for this situation?

The male-to-female ratio of 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities was released, and Sichuan became the only region with more females than males, with a gender ratio of 96.7. Why are there more “girls” than “men” in Sichuan? In my opinion, there are only three reasons. 1. History and war factors

Some European countries such as Russia and Ukraine now also have imbalances in the ratio of men to women, with more women than men. This is mainly because they lost a large number of men after the ravages of World War II. , has not recovered until now.

Sichuan is no exception. The history of China's population migration can be summed up in one sentence: "Jiangxi fills in Huguang, and Huguang fills in Sichuan." During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Sichuan experienced wars, resulting in a sharp decrease in population. In order to recover and rebuild after the war, a series of measures were taken from the central to local governments to attract immigrants. During the migration process, it was always more difficult for men to survive than women in order to protect women and children.

During the Anti-Japanese War, hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops came out of Sichuan to fight against the Japanese and sacrificed a lot. Therefore, it is not surprising that there are more women than men. The phenomenon of more men than women reflects the heroic Sichuanese people's efforts to protect their homeland and country. contribution made. 2. Causes of natural geology and climate

The reason why there are more women than men in Sichuan can also be explained by science. Regarding having children, the most widely circulated saying among Chinese people is "sour children and spicy women", which means that if the mother likes to eat sour food, she will give birth to a boy, and if the mother likes to eat spicy food, she will give birth to a girl. We all know the eating habits of Sichuan people. It is easier to give birth to a daughter in Sichuan. Is it related to diet? Of course, this statement has yet to be scientifically verified.

In addition, the geology of the Sichuan Basin is humid and the water quality is acidic. Scientific research shows that drinking acidic raw water for a long time is more likely to give birth to a girl.

Natural geological conditions will affect a person's skin color and personality. For example, in mountains and places with better water quality, girls have fairer skin. For example, the folk proverbs "Poor mountains and bad water bring out unruly people" and "Near Zhu Those who are close to ink are red, and those who are close to ink are black" all illustrate the role of environment on people. In short, there is no doubt that the natural environment has an impact on people. 3. Sichuan is a major province for migrant workers

Although Sichuan has metropolitan areas like Chengdu, regional development in Sichuan is uneven and some places are still very backward. It is still a major province for migrant workers. Sichuan has the largest number of people working outside the country. Every year during the Spring Festival, millions of Sichuan migrant workers are transported back to Sichuan from the south by train. No wonder some people say that the Spring Festival is the largest population migration in modern times.

Based on the author’s personal experience, the construction teams in Sichuan are the most numerous engineering teams I have ever seen. In my impression, I have never encountered any construction team without Sichuan people. . Sichuan people are hard-working and responsible, and are very popular with contractors. Therefore, contractors are willing and brave to use Sichuan people.

“Young people cannot enter Sichuan, and old people cannot leave Sichuan.” Most Sichuan people who go out to work are men. After they leave Sichuan, they rarely come back unless they come back to take care of themselves. However, although Sichuan girls go out to work, they rarely come back. Quite a few, but traditional concepts still drive them to return to their hometowns to get married and have children. Therefore, the loss of men in Sichuan is serious, while more women stay.
