re: Shortage of economically attractive partners for unmarried women to marry

I'd be curious to find out what you think the sociological consequences are going to be both short term and long term.

It's kinda hard to tell for sure.

But, the simple fact is, partner searching is a matter of fishing for a limited number of fish in whatever pool you're searching.

Women, over the last 4-5 decades have become more affluent which, that's great for them. But, they really haven't changed a single thing about what they look for in a man as they've done it.

So, that means there are increasing numbers of women partner searching in the pools with the fewest men.

Moreover, at precisely the same time, those male pools are actually shrinking(due to competition from women). Again, that's great for women economically, but, not so great if they keep their same partner search criteria.

Meanwhile, like any supply and demand system, the men in these smaller pools are confronted with copious choices for arse at precisely the same time that legally speaking, choosing poorly can totally frick you.

So, what do the men do? Simple. Treat these women as disposable depreciating commodities.

Now, women complain incessantly about this, but, the thing is, the men didn't change. The women did. They need to look in the mirror.
