Beijing Moral Education Center Teaches Women How to Wed the Rich

— July 19, 2011 — Lifestyle
We all either know or have heard of women marrying for money, but the Beijing Moral Education Center for Women specifically teaches classes to show Chinese women how to do just that.

The classes apparently teach women to improve certain habits and tendencies in order to make them more appealing to rich men. Over 30 hours of classes that range from how to apply make-up using the most flattering techniques to how to tell if a man is lying judging by his facial expressions, women attending the Beijing Moral Education Center learn how to snag a wealthy man.

The classes have been available since August 2010 and have attracted 2,800 middle-class women looking to get hitched.

"By taking the classes at this school, women can raise their personal qualities -- and perhaps better meet the expectations of men like us who are looking for a girlfriend or a companion," says 32-year-old Wen Wen, who is dating one of the school's graduates.
