November 11 is Singles Day because the date "11/11" consists of four ones. The more the single youth are in the city, the more popular the festival becomes, Nanjing's Modern Express reports. Information from the city's civil affairs authority showed that youth in Nanjing now marry five years later than before. Most people married between 20 and 24 in the past, and now, most couples marry between 25 and 29. 南京《现代快报》消息,11月11日,因为这个日子有4个“1”,所以成了“光棍节”。城市大龄青年逐渐增多导致光棍节越发走俏。南京市民政部门的消息称,南京人结婚年龄“长”了5岁,过去20岁至24岁登记结婚的人最多,现在则延后到25岁至29岁。
