A woman in her 40s reflects on the challenges and societal expectations she faces as an unmarried, childless woman. She discusses feeling isolated and unseen, as media often portrays middle-aged women as either married or single. She shares her own experiences of working a demanding job, caring for aging parents, and supporting her partner, while also dealing with financial struggles. Despite not conforming to societal norms, she emphasizes the value she has contributed through her relationships, writing, and advocacy work, and calls for empathy and understanding towards different life paths.

An unmarried Chinese woman, Teresa Xu, has begun her final appeal for the right to freeze her eggs, which was denied by a hospital five years ago. The case has drawn broad coverage in China and will have strong implications for the lives of many unmarried women in the country. Although the law in China does not explicitly ban unmarried people from fertility treatments, hospitals and other institutions require people to present a marriage license. Xu argues that the denial constitutes a violation of her right to bodily autonomy and is fighting for the reproductive rights of single women.
