Yes, in China too many times it's even a worse situation.
Families with more than one child are usually only from the poor rural areas (One-child policy), and the daughter is usually the elder sibling. Parents pressure their daughters to build a house - which the son "needs" - and will get - in order to get married.
And even if a girl is an only child, village peer pressure on the parents will also result in the daughter being made to build a house, send home at least half of her income, come home during CNY with gifts not only for her immediate family, but also the furthest flung relatives - which means just about everybody in their village!
Things like this why a LOT of girls (I'd even estimate a majority) become WG's.
