據(jù)說，十一長(zhǎng)假期間，很多回家探親的單身男女都“被相親”了。很多人表示無奈。在我們身邊，也有一些人選擇主動(dòng)出擊，組織熟人相親會(huì)，也就是俗稱的“換草運(yùn)動(dòng)”。
The term “acquaintance blind date” literally means “exchanging grass”, with grass referring to young men. Such events are usually initiated by “l(fā)eftover women” — single women who have passed the best age for getting married. These women may bring single male friends, colleagues or relatives to a get-together and expect to find their Mr. Right among their peers’ male friends.
“換草運(yùn)動(dòng)”其實(shí)就是熟人召集的相親會(huì)，這里的“草”指年輕男子。這種活動(dòng)多數(shù)都是由大齡單身女們組織的，她們會(huì)把各自身邊的男性朋友、同事或親戚組織到一起參加聚會(huì)，希望能從對(duì)方帶來的朋友中找到自己的另一半。
This event originates from an online post that proposed to exchange male friends or colleagues with other single women since it’s not a good idea to develop a romantic relationship in the same office.
“換草運(yùn)動(dòng)”是由網(wǎng)絡(luò)上的一個(gè)帖子引發(fā)的，發(fā)貼人提議，既然大家都不方便發(fā)展辦公室戀情，那就跟別的單身女交換認(rèn)識(shí)身邊的男性朋友或同事。
