Japan's Single Ladies

It is estimated that in Tokyo 70% of single working women choose to live with their parents and only 50%of them pay some rent. After graduating from college,these women came back to their nest and never left. With their mothers taking care of them,these young ladies are not in a hurry to get married,since they don't do housework or laundry,or cook.
Happily unmarried,these called"parasite single",who have become the focus of the Japanese society,interpret marriage as lower standard of living and less money."The problem is that Japan is very different from the United States or Europe,where after marriage it's still possible for a woman to pursue a career,even after having a baby.While in Japan usually the husband doesn't want the wife to work," says Mariko Kawana,who is 27 years old and works as a secretary. Her opinion is agreed by Mild Takasu,who carries a $2 ,900 Bubbery purse,and drives a BMW."If a woman realizes there is something she wants to do after having been married,it is almost unlikely for her to come back to it."
This is the first significant group of Japanese women to stay single beyond their early twenties. Their lifestyle and opinions define a kind of Tokyo yuppie.In the past 15 years,the number of women who are single into their late twenties has risen to 50%.
They are crazy about shopping,and they spend most of their salaries on luxury and leisure.According to a nationwide survey,in 2003 they surprisingly covered 15%share in the total outbound leisure travel market from Japan,so they are targeted by travel agencies as"the office ladies".In 2002,a shopping tour which concentrated only on shopping in Milan attracted 700 Japanese single ladies in two months,featured none of Italy's famous tourist attractions.The participants didn't even try famous Italian food,but grabbed snacks on the run to the outlet shops.
Girls like Miki,who are less affected by Japan's economic downturn,can afford this lifestyle because they live with their parents and they have jobs,and most of their incomes are disposable.
Opinions on these young women vary.Some people think that they are good for the economy because they spend their incomes on cars and clothes,while a large number of people think they are destroying society by refusing to get married and have children. What can we infer from the passage?
A.The salaries of the office ladies are high enough to meet all their needs.
B.These office ladies often run out of money at the end of each month.
C.Most of the office ladies are irresponsible.
D.These office ladies can be regarded as a social problem to some degree.
