It is undeniable that there are many other factors that influence, but such content easily affects women's psychology, making many of them more and more hesitant.
Love is fine, marriage is still a matter of thought
27 years old, returned from working in Japan, Ms. T. Linh (30 years old, in Ho Chi Minh City) works as a logistics employee. She said she also tried to get to know a few men but it didn't go anywhere. Those who proposed to her said they wanted to get married quickly. But for her, love is only beautiful when it doesn't lead to marriage.
This is the "experience" she draws from the life mottos of Chinese "big sisters" that she reads every day online. Therefore, instead of spending time looking for a good husband, Linh said she chose a job, learning more Japanese, and getting additional certificates to advance.
Although in love, Tham Thuong (24 years old, in Quang Ngai) admits that articles about love and marriage on the internet have deeply affected her. She and her boyfriend have been in love for quite a long time, and also believe that beautiful love will lead to a perfect marriage.
But watching negative videos about marriage every day makes her wonder: "Will I be lucky enough to have a happy marriage or will it be like the cases I see online? So it's probably best not to get married."
Similarly, Thanh Truc (28 years old, a drug saleswoman in Binh Duong) said that her lover is very good, thoughtful, and financially stable, but she is afraid to get married because she does not have enough trust in marriage.
"If I live alone, I will find someone to keep me company when I fall in love, but I will not get married. I am afraid of having to obey a man, then sacrifice my career and beauty to have children, and sometimes receive contempt and coldness from my husband," said Ms. Truc.
The worrying reality of young people being afraid of getting married
According to Master of Psychology Dao Thi Duy Duyen, if a person is influenced by too many negative images about marriage that they read and see online every day, it will significantly affect their perception and thinking. While just paying a little attention will see that there is a lot of positive news around, but often negative things are easier to attract attention and create public opinion, so they affect the psychology of the recipient.
For young people, they often learn about marriage through observation and research on various media or through their parents' marriage. "If they are exposed to negative information and images about marriage, it is difficult to help them imagine a positive and healthy married life. Gradually, negative thoughts about marriage will form in each person," Ms. Duyen analyzed.
Another psychologist said that when working with many young people, he realized that those who pay attention to negative information and join closed groups to share dark corners face more anxiety or have more false beliefs.
Social networks have algorithms that prioritize the content users search for, so purifying the content accessed on digital platforms should be one of the first steps to re-establishing a balanced life.
Social media has the ability to influence and even direct the perception of the beneficiaries. On the positive side, these stories provide young people with a realistic view of married life, that marriage is not a joke but requires serious preparation.
"However, many people easily exaggerate negative issues, turning them into threats that easily cause young people to lose faith in love and marriage, which is a worrying thing," he said.
Enjoy a free, self-sufficient life
When asked why she seemed to see the prospects of marriage as so bad, Ms. Thanh Truc said she had heard of many divorces around her, watched many movies and even confessions of people whose marriages had broken down, so she had no expectations of getting married and having children. Not to mention, she also considered KOLs, actors, and influencers who lived by the motto "modern women don't need men" as ideal models.
"Save money to travel, take care of my parents, enjoy a free and self-sufficient life. I don't need a house that's too big or a goal that's too far away, just a peaceful life, enjoying the fruits of my labor" - Ms. Truc planned for herself.
