Chinese women getting mixed social signals on beauty, roles

A computer screen displays blogs showing women taking up online challenges such as an "A4 waist" or "iPhone knees" in Beijing, China, Tuesday, April 12, 2016. Online trends challenging women to show an “A4 waist” or “iPhone knees,” are a counterpoint to a recent viral advertising campaign taking on the issue of “leftover women,” those in their later 20s or older who are still unmarried and widely considered by society to be social failures, “old maids” who are past their prime.
