Girls’ Day is widely celebrated at Chinese universities on March 7th of every year. As a campus version of the International Women’s Day, Girls’ Day gives male university students an opportunity to greet their beloved female classmates with various peppy, comic banners like those below…

2009 Social Security [major] Girls, today, you are our Shen Jiayi!” -2009 Social Security Guys.

[Note: 2009 indicates the year when these students entered university. Shen Jiayi is the female character in the Taiwanese romance film You Are the Apple of My Eye.]

You are my Qingchuan! -All the Eighth Brothers of the 2010 Tuba Building”

[Note: Qingchuan is the female character in the Chinese time-travel drama "Palace" where the Eighth Brother is her boyfriend.]

You are our women. –All the manly men of the 2009 Human Resources Class #1

No matter whose women you will be tomorrow, you are always our good girls!

Darlings, we are your ABC, for use at night!

[Note: ABC is a sanitary towel brand.]

Guys, before you meet the man you fancy, come meet your Queens first!

Socialism is good; Sociology sisters are better! Girls of the Sociology Department, Happy Girl’s Day!

Who cares about the sex ratio, all we care about is you. [To those] girls who solved Schrodinger’s wave equation with us back then.

A life devoted to programing, today devoted to girls. Girls of Computer Science 0901, Happy Girls’ Day!

It’s very symbolic that March 7 is Girls day and on tomorrow (March 8) – it’s already Women’s Day…

If women were treated equally this wouldn’t need to happen… not that I am for all that shit. Serious point though.

Girls of computer science department. ~_~
I guess it’s very unlikely for one to find a place with a lower female to male ratio in this world than the CS department.

    haha, so bad???
    in my university, chemistry is the most famous department, many girls.
    in my department half&half. not so bad, but even though in a university full of guys, still many of them did not have any bf at the end.
    our study spirit is very high in my uni, 1/3 can go to better uni for MS.
