都说80后的青年男女都流行“闪婚”，这个势头还没有过去，又来了一个“闪孕”的趋势。据说是好多女白领担心在经济危机期间丢了工作而采取的应对措施。

可是，小编有点不解的是，下一次经济危机的时候她们怎么办呢？

They are female white-collar workers. They didn't have any plan to have a child until the economic crisis struck.

Then they decided to get pregnant - as quickly as possible.

在这个群族之列的都是女性白领员工。

她们一直没有生育计划，而经济危机来临的时候，她们突然决定要快速怀孕。

They are afraid of getting fired. China's labor law stipulates that a company should not fire a pregnant employee unless the company is insolvent. "Get pregnant as soon as possible" became a mantra at the height of the economic crisis. Indeed, so many female employees made this choice that they were collectively dubbed "the rush-to-get-pregnant tribe".

因为她们怕被炒鱿鱼。我国劳动法规定除破产情况以外，公司不得解雇怀孕员工。这使得“尽快怀孕”成了经济危机高涨时的一个护身符。因为有很多女性员工选择快速怀孕，所以就出现了一个新的群体，被称为“闪孕族”。
