As far as I know, this sort of social pressure is not as strong as it used to be anymore. But it still exists, yes.

The single men are under suspicion of being gay, so they usually feel pressure from their friends. As a popular stand-up comedian put it, "my friends want to get me married whatever it takes -- because people cannot bear it when someone is happy".
