Tu Jun is real estate dealer in Guangzhou who often rents apartments to unmarried couples. "Today, young people - even college sutents - rarely try to cover up their cohabitation. Many young couples ren apartments from my agency," said Tu.
Experts indicate that one contributing factor to this change in sexual behavior is the career-first mentality of many Chinese youth.
"Today's young people tend to marry late and therefore cannot bear the long wait for sex," said Zhou Xiaozheng, head of the Institute of Sociology at Renmin University.
On the other hand, plenty of young Chinese, such as Xiang Wei's boyfriend, still try to wait until marriage to have sex. And these people often hold their potential mate to the same standard.
Wang Zhe, a senior from Sichuan Province, said it would make hime sick if he were to discover that his girlfriend was not a virgin.
"My idol is Kaka - a famous Brazilian football player. He is proud that he was a virgin when he married Caroline Celico - a beautiful woman who's also a virgin. If I discovered that my girlfriend slept with another guy, I would feel sick," Wang said.
