For some it may be classed as 'three-
timing', but in one Chinese city having
three girlfriends is apparently seen as
the norm.

One man from the city of Dongguan, in
China’s Guangdong province, has even
told media it would be “embarrassing”
to have only one girlfriend.

The polyamorous attitude is down to a
huge gender imbalance in the city.

The population disparity is reportedly
89 men for every 100 women because
local bosses in Dongguan - a centre for
manufacturing - shun male employees
for more reliable female workers.
One man told local TV, according to
News.com.au, it was easier to find a
girlfriend than a job in the town, while
factory worker Li Bin said: “I have three
girlfriends, and all of them know about
each other. Many of my friends also
have many girlfriends.”

The situation was “very normal”,
according to Xiao Lin, MailOnline
reported.
“Young and beautiful factory girls are
everywhere. They’re simple and easy
to get along with, why not have
several?”
“It would be too embarrassing for
someone to have just one girlfriend.
Everyone will laugh at him,” he said,
adding it was an acceptable activity for
people when they were young.
Many men in Dongguan have odd jobs
and casual work and consequently, the
women will pay for their way,
mirror.co.uk reported.

A Yi, who is unemployed, said: “There
are plenty of women in Dongguan, and
they don’t want any money. They just
want a man.”

The online newspaper reported that
the Guangdong Women’s Rights and
Information Service said the women
ignored the partners because the
arrangement was better than being
lonely.
