How socially conservative are China and Vietnam, and how can they realistically become more progressive? (lemmygrad.ml)

Yeah, I’d venture to guess most people alive in China today spent their childhoods in rural areas based on the urbanization trend. There’s been a lot of recent progress in marriage law within the last year or so. The gist is something like for a woman to divorce her husband you needed evidence of him wronging you and had to wait a cooldown period. Those rules have been relaxed in a drive to combat domestic violence.

Yea, these things take time to catch up, you can still see this on the West. Its mostly the old people that are reactionary on social issues, newer generations require some heavy indoctrination to turn out as conservative as them.

China went from economically backwards to a highly developed in the span of 30 years, id bet the avg age in China is above that!
