从1990年人口普查数据看藏族妇女的婚姻状况

Marital Status of the Tibetan Women: A Look at the 1990 Census Data

本文根据１９９０年人口普查数据资料对藏族女性的婚姻状况进行了分析，提出如下结论：１．和其它人口群体相比，藏族女性的婚姻状况为有配偶率低、未婚率高、离婚和丧偶的人口比重高；２．其婚姻模式表现为初婚年龄高、不婚率高的婚姻模式。究其原因，一是独特的性比例造成女性可婚对象减少；二是藏族独特的文化传统和风俗习惯使女性没有必须处于婚姻状态的压力，对川藏两地藏族女性婚姻状况的比较说明民族融合有助于藏族女性婚姻模式的改善。

Using 1990 population census data this paper examines the marital status of the Tibetan women. Compared with other populations, Tibetan women have lower rates of having spouses, higher rates of never marrying, and higher proportions of divorce and widowhood. The marriage pattern of the Tibetan Women is characterized by high ages at first marriage and high rates of celibacy. Major factors responsible for this pattern include abnormal sex ratio of the Tibetan population and the unique Tibetan culture and tradition.
