About half of the laborers who flock into the cities in China are female migrant workers. Com-pared with their male counterparts in personal characteristics, females are likely to encounter more difficulties, to be excluded from the society and the city itself, and even experience some unfair treatments just because of their gender. After the female migrant workers move into the cities, they often take up the jobs which urban females are unwilling to take.
