走出同居女性权利缺失的法律困境

Way Out of Legal Constraints on Female Cohabitants＇ Rights

近年来，中国非婚同居率不断攀升，成为无法回避的客观现实，同居女性权利缺失问题不容忽视。非婚同居是当事人选择家庭生活的方式和两性关系多元化的体现，同居女性权益的特殊性应受到法律的重视和调整：明确同居生活费用负担义务，赋予对同居所得财产的继承权，完善遗产酌情给付制度，承认家事劳动的社会价值，扩充两性平等的适用范围，合理建构同居女性权利保障机制。

In recent years, unmarried cohabitation has gradually increased in china and become an undeniable social phenomenon. There is an increasing problem of lack of protection of female cohabitants＇ legitimate rights. Unmarried cohabitation is a choice of life style and manifests the diversification of male-female relationship. Women＇s legitimate rights in this case have specific characteristics and should be emphasized and regulated by law. Efforts, for instance, should be paid to specifying the obligation of making women＇s living expenses affordable, recognizing the inheritance right to marital possessions acquired during the period of cohabitation, improv- ing the inheritance payment system, recognizing the social value of women＇s housework; enlarging the scope of equal status between the woman and the man in cohabitation, and establishing a fair guarantee system to protect women＇s rights in cohabitation.
