Am I a leftover woman?

I just read this article, then my friend showed me the English version.which made much more sence. I though it was about libral leftwing-women, but I was wrong - sorry.
Anyways, I just had some thoughts about my life lately, turing 25 and so...not depressing at all.
I'm not comfortable with the words: Leftover Woman.
To me it just sounds offensive and insulting, at least that's my opinion.
I would much rather prefer: Woman-who's-not-yet-found-a-partner-but-lives-happily-and-can-definitily-imagine-her-life-with-or-without-partner-really-doesn't-matter-as-long-as-she-is-satisfied-with-herself-and-her-life.
All those tv-shows, such as sex and the city, lipstick jungle, cashmere mafia and so on (those where the only ones that came to mind, I'm sure there are plenty more of where that came from), have made an impact on single women. Forget about the sex, career, drama, guys in the shows and think of how it changed single women. Now single women don't have to be seen as a leftover woman. Also female friendship is also something nice that came out of those shows.
Maybe people might get intimedated by these power puff chicks and it also be a bit over the top from the other side, but if it works for them, why not?

Koreanerna har ett gammalt talesätt där man jämför kvinnor med jultårtor (så typiskt korea).
Den går iaf ut på att vid 24 och 25 så är kvinnan jättepopulär. Vid 26 och 27 så säljer de fortfarande. Vid 30 är det typ omöjligt att sälja en jultårta/få tag på en bra man till en kvinna.
