There are now more single than married women in the US. Women in American society are less likely than ever to have a husband.

More American women are single than ever before. What are the reasons?

According to the 2007 article, “51% of Women Are Now Living Without Spouse,” New York Times writer Sam Roberts analyzes census results and claims that this may be the first time, in American history, that more women are unmarried than married.

Single Women

The article continues, “In 2005, 51 percent of women said they were living without a spouse.” For some older women, this may be a shock. For others, this may not be news, at all.

Statistics about the number of married couples have been trending downward for years. And in 2005, the tipping point was reached, as data showed less than half of all American households included a husband and wife. Some of the reasons for this trend:

  • Young ladies choose to marry later in life
  • Older women remain single after divorce or widowhood
  • Women are looking for someone who is good for them
  • Divorce has become more common within the last few decades

Race and Marriage

Roberts says that the statistics on single-women households varied when broken down along racial lines. Seventy percent of African American women and fifty-one percent of Hispanic women are currently unmarried. Forty-five percent of white women (non-Hispanic) and forty percent of Asian women are unmarried. The percentage of unmarried black women might be astounding to women who have never heard this sad statistic.

Why So Many Singles?

Why are there so many single women? Roberts believes these are some of the main reasons:

  • Sometimes, the numbers reflect a temporary arrangement, such as when a husband is in the military.
  • Many women wait until they finish college or establish their careers before marrying.
  • Older women often find that they have paid their dues while raising kids and taking care of their husbands, and find they like their newfound freedom.
  • Others have not found a suitable new man, though they would remarry, given the right circumstances.

Change in America

Professor Stephanie Coontz, from Evergreen State College near Seattle, is quoted by Roberts as saying, “On average, Americans now spend half their adult lives outside marriage.”

In the same article, William H. Frey, who studies statistics for the Brookings Institute, Washington DC, described this new world as a time of “greater independence and more flexible lifestyles." Frey explains that younger women understand they will spend much of their lives alone. Yet, the concern is that many older women do not like living alone.

However, many older women are happier being single because they don’t have to answer to anyone. They can spend their time and money as they see fit. Also, many of their cohorts are divorced or widowed, so they have single friends.

Marriage Statistics

Roberts based his analysis upon the 2005 Census Bureau’s American Community Survey. Of the 117 million women age 15 and over:

  • 63 million are married
  • 3.1 million are legally separated
  • 2.4 million have a husband who lives elsewhere

This means that 57.5 million American women live with a husband and 59.9 million are living with no husband in the home, for various reasons.

A larger percentage of men, about 53 percent, are married. This is possible because there are a greater number of women than men.

How will America change as more and more Baby Boomers become single? No one knows for sure, but most likely, there will be an even higher percentage of single women in the future. So, single gals will most certainly have a lot of friends in the neighborhood.

You've conveniently left off the "marriage strike" as one of the reasons. Western women have become so disagreeable, and divorce such a rigged game that strips men of their assets, incomes, homes, and children, that most men under 40 that I know would think three times before marrying.

Its difficult, if not impossible, for me to care about the plight of the American female. Did any of them give a flying rats rump when men were getting raked over the coals for 40 years by the flag-waving man-haters? Nope! So with a 50% divorce rate, with 70% of them initiated by the female, American men have simply walked off the field of "The Battle of The Sexes". Like the old joke goes, what if they held a war and nobody showed up? Bah, in the end who cares? I have better things to do, like take my hot young foreign wife up to the lake for some much needed relaxation time. You American females get ready for work and planning your retirement in 50 years, if there will be one for you. Oh, and get used to being single. Because you are after all independent and you dont need no man! LOL!

A lot of women now prefer to have intimate relationships with women instead of men. Women are evening leaving straight marriages for other women. This is a growing trend. So that is one reason why the women appear to be single. Since gay marriage is only legal in 5 states and Canada. Two gay women living together would appear to be single when they are actually a couple.

This is true for sure...and I do not see what is the big deal in this society on been so interested to know if your single or not. The reality is, if you are compatible with someone then take advantage and get married, but if that's not the case...o well enjoy yourself and live. Of course you have to be confident enough to handle all the people out there who is always questioning your marital status. People needs to get a life and mind their own business... there is so much important stuff in this world.

Dear SWM,
Sorry, I can't post your email address. It's against website policy. Keep trying, it took me about 10 years of dating to find the right guy. Good luck.

I'm thankful for this actually. It used to really wear on my esteem flying solo all of the time - now I don't feel so much like a creature "to be pitied" or "fixed," just because I haven't found anyone just right for me.

I am on my third marriage, so I've been single and I've been partnered. My life has been split about half and half. When you are single you have more freedom. When you are married your life feels more stable.

I think that women can be happy (or unhappy) single or married. And, when you're single, you control your own destiny.

The men writing on this post are so ignorant. To the one who has the so-called "hot, young, foreign wife": Maybe a foreign women is the only kind of woman that you can get cuz she can't speak English or can't figure out how pig-headed you are. That's right... You need someone who can't understand the stupid garbage that spews from your mouth. American women are WELL KNOWN to not tolerate crap from men. Some countries teach women to be submissive to men. An American women would kick you to the curb if she hasn't already!!

Hahahahahaha. You made me laugh. You are right when you say that some guys need a woman who doesn't understand all the BS he's saying. Hahhhaahahaha. Thanks for your comment. You totally made my day.

The remarkable thing about this article is how superficial it is. Fewer marriages are taking place because of unjust family law. No fault divorce laws benefits those who cheat and brought little in the way of assets to the relationship. It is a bad deal for people especially men who usually have the most to loose financially. Although some still will get married for most the risk/reward relationship is just too great.

Actually, you're wrong here. New studies show that there's more men than women in the United States and women are likely to be married than men and men are more likely to be single because the American culture is still hung up on patriarchy and pressures women to be submissive and unassertive. Also, women still earn less than men in the workplace as well and don't finish college, either. In addition to that, women tend to marry earlier than men and men are more likely to be left alone and are better off than women when they are. Single men survive a lot better than single women because they can easily protect themselves and are less likely to be victims of crime.

Not true. Males live longer when they are married then when they are single because males need women more then women need males.

As far as the comment about the battle of the sexes, if this battle ever turned into a real war, all the males would be dead before a fourth of the women were. Even as a male, I can easily see that now that women are getting an equal chance at things that males have taken for granted, women are surpassing males in just about every area showing that women can do everything we males can do and women can do it far better then most males. I have no doubt that women are actually far superior to most males any day.

Oh I think I see at least one smart male here. Did you see this? "Even as a male, I can easily see that now that women are getting an equal chance at things that males have taken for granted, women are surpassing males in just about every area showing that women can do everything we males can do and women can do it far better then most males. I have no doubt that women are actually far superior to most males any day"

He even states that if a real war between men and women broke out, women would only lost 25% of the female population while all the males would be dead.

Although I am also a male, I would have to agree with him so does that make two smart males here? (I actual know more males who know women are superior to the males than I do women who agree with this. Maybe the women say they do not agree that women are superior to avoid hurting the weak male ego though.

It would be interesting to see if Christina though there were fewer women getting married because they cannot find a male good enough. After all, almost every male gets to marry someone smarter and better than he is, look at what women get to marry...a MALE!

Dear Guest,

I am having a difficult time disagreeing with your argument, even though I would like to. I can say that it is very difficult to find a decent husband once you are out of college.

Women have to try harder than men. But, I know some really stupid women so I can't say that women are always smarter than men. I can say that I am smarter than my 2 brothers and my deceased father. And, I won't comment on the intelligence of my several husbands because I like them all very much. (haha)

Guest :
Christina, I too am a male and I have no probem with admitting that women are much smarter than most males and I have no problem with women doing everything males can do and that they do it so much better than most males. After all, being female is the default in humand but with those of us with testicles, something goes horribly wrong and we end up male. Someone has to be on the bottom to hold the superior beings up and in most of nature it is the female who is the focal point of life and males are here to serve them so why do we not see that women are certainly superior to most males and they are the stars of this play called life and males are only supporting actors here to serve the stars.

To put it bluntly every male does reconize that women are superior even if he does not want to. In the military, superiors are saluted by those who are inferior and in humans, most males do salute women if we look at it right. Our pricks stand up in the presense of a woman and is that not like our dicks saluting her? It stands in her presences and even our balls are placed women can use them to totally control us and most males do like it when women are rough with our nuts. So you see, almost every male does know women are superior to us.

Guest :
I love that last comment but he forgot to point out that after our dicks salute the superior women, they go limp for a long time in submission to a much superior woman. Nature has assured that we males do reconize women as our superior in dozens of subtle ways, Even our nuts being where they are help this by making it possible for women to give us a swift kick to our balls when we need it but I would love to see more women being taught how to use our balls to her advantage.

LOL I will never look at a hard on in the same way again but how would we return the salute?

I love the way you express this and acknowledg that wome are superior. Not bad for a MALE!

How can we do that? Use your balls to our advantage other than the obvious kicking them. Does it really hurt as much as males claim it does? Are their other ways to use balls to control males as some have suggested? How would we do it without getting hit so hard we lose control ?

As with the first reader's comments: I believe that if anything is "rigged" it's the unending demand by men for power and control - and that would be anywhere in the world, not just the U.S. Marriage has become less and less significant for Western women because it not only lacks credence and commitment, it represents an anchor of responsibility for (usually) them alone. There are double standards that abound - even in this day and age. So if we have the choice to be single and "free" to the extent that we are still making 75% of what a man can earn, and can hold on to our identities and dreams and desires more effectively than when we are married, why shouldn't we hold out (perhaps indefinitely) for the better deal? Men have long ago chosen to cop-out on "real" relationships (never mind marriage!), whether it be through homosexuality, passive-aggressive behavior, or just plain laziness. I choose freedom any day rather than a marriage in chains. And by the look of those who are married, I have detected damned few who are truly happy.

Women are now finally getting tired of being expected to be mother and wife. Their eyes are opening and now they realize they can do all the things men can do. They don't have to be tied to one man or pop out kids one by one and become enslaved. The options are broadening and I have observed that this disturbs some men. I have ZERO sympathy for them at all, if they can't handle an independent and free spirtited woman, they don't need to have a woman.

Yes, I was perfectly happy after my last divorce. I was a "mature" woman, in my mid 40s. I had had my two children. I could do what I wanted, when I wanted.

I was not planning on ever marrying again. The only thing that makes me sad is that few women are having children anymore. I think that women are brainwashed into thinking that there are too many people in the US and it is bad for the environment or something. Well...what if your child-to-be is the woman who discovers a cheap alternative to oil / gasoline and we can live in an unpolluted environment. What if your son-to-be is the genius who finds a way to end war?

How will we ever know what your child is capable of...if you never have the child?

Christina, if anyone is going to find a way to end a war, it would most likely be a woman, not a man. However, I do have to agree with the one guest that if the battle of the sexes ever became a real war, men would not have a chance and he is right, women are by far the superior sex so one reason there are more single women is that women have to married down while men get to marry someone far better than they are. With most of the men around, that would not be very hard to do.

I knew women were smarter than men long ago. As a boy, a noticed that most of the girls in class were smarter than most of the boys and when given tasks, the girls were finished sooner than the boys and the job they did was far better than us. I started checking things out in high school and for those who doubt women are the superior gender, the Natural Superiority of Women" is a good book that shows solid evidence that women are the superior gender. It starts by showing that every human starts out female but it goes on to say that at one certain stage of development something "goes horribly wrong" and some of us (myself included) end up to be male. In short, we males are a mutation of a female. (Seldom is a mutation good)

One problem is that the last update of this book was in 1999 and since than a lot more has been learned.

Recently there have been several news items regarding this. Some say males will disappear totally. Others say we will still be around but not really needed. Before machines were invented, males were needed for their muscles for physical work. Now that machines can do all of that, males are not needed as much as we once were.

Now there is a book that can fill in that 21 year gap.

"Man Down" by Dan Abrams

Proof Beyond a Reasonable Doubt That Women Are Better Cops, Drivers, Gamblers, Spies, World Leaders, Beer Tasters, Hedge Fund Managers, and Just About Everything Else

Someone said that now that women are getting an equal chance, women are surpassing males in almost every area. This is what Abrams said is the reason for this book.

"There’s a lot more evidence now. A lot of the studies from the book are from the last three years. It’s only been in the last twenty or so years, that women have been on a relatively even playing field in terms of work to do many of these studies. We weren’t able to make fair comparisons before, because women were a fraction of the working world. Now we’re see women taking over the majority in many professions. But only recently has there been enough time to look back to compare men versus women and only recently has there been real interest."

Abrams said a vast majority of lead researchers are male, but the broad trend trackers are women. so it may be that males are beginning to wake up and smell the roses that male superiority is history. Actually, males never were superior as women have always been superior to males.

Women have a better sense of smell, taste, and new research is suggesting the fact that women tend to endure pain more makes them more immune to it. It’s the old aphorism, “That which doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.” Women survive injury better than males do and 77% of those who die in traffic accidents are male. Women have 34 more nerve fibers per square centimeter of facial skin, while men have an average of 17. This brings up sexual pleasure. Women have hundreds of times more nerve endings in their vagina than males have in their penis and as a result a male's orgasm pales to a woman's. A woman feels it in all of her body for several moments and it can be repeated many times in a short time. A male's orgasm consists of a few throbs of his penis and it is over in usually much less than a minute. He usually cannot have another one for several hours. Someone said that it is like Niagara Falls for women, a dripping faucet (no pun intended) for males.

Women live an average of five years longer than men. The reasons for this are both genetic and behavior-based. First of all, women have stronger immune systems, again due to estrogen which aids the fight against disease-inducing enzymes. But women are also less likely to engage in risky behavior. Almost all of the Darwin Award winners are male. Usually 9 or more males kill themselves for each woman who does to get this award.

Women make better doctors. While forty percent of doctors are women, 80 percent of those under investigation for medical misconduct or incompetence are male. In the U.S., there were similar findings. Male physicians were twice as likely to be sued as women


He does list things males are better at: Males are better at parking, they’re better dieters, they have better distance vision, and they read maps better. Males do have larger muscles, so they tend to be better at some sports but women far excel males in endurance sports.

A woman's body can more efficiently process oxygen. When it comes to ultra-marathons—say, a 135 mile race without sleep—women can beat men. Remember the first male that ran a marathon died and when we read about someone dying while playing sports or running a race, it is far more likely it will be a male.

When looking at sex change operations, we will notice that a few hundred males want to become women for every woman who wants to become a male. Still these males would not become members of the superior gender as their DNA would still be male thus keeping them inferior to women.

Even in combat, women are better sharp shooters and if the battle of the sexes every turned into a real war, we males would not have a chance. All the males would all be dead while 3/4 or more women remained alive and unharmed.

It is a given that males need women far more than women need males but lets count our lucky stars that most women still want us around.

With Montagu's book, I use to think women had a 80 out of 100 advantage over us males. With his last update in 1999 I raised that to 85 to 100. Now with this new book, it looks like women have a 95 to 100 advantage over males and if it keeps up since women have grown so much in the last 20 to 30 years, soon they will have total advantage over anyone that has the misfortune of being born with testicles. From what I see around me, I too am glad women are the SUPERIOR gender and MALES are the inferior one.

What has been rigged is what has been the biggest con job in history, that males are the superior gender when as a few males no less have admitted here that males are not superior to women, they are inferior. Still I am glad that some have " the misfortune of being born with testicles" as my husband has them. He is smarter than most males though. He was the one who helped me understand that women are not inferior and should be a man's servant. When we were just dating, he gave me a copy of that book mentioned here (The Natural Superiority of Women) however he is not my slave as being inferior does not do that any more than an office worker is the slave to their superiors at an office.

I do know my husband will love to read that book mentioned (Man Down) that gives many more reasons women are superior so I do plan to surprise him with it. Oh, he does point out that males are superior at some things but most of the things they are superior at are not good things. They are superior at killing people but he says at least when they do kill, they usually kill other males. As to wars, my husband says that they need a new UN treaty that would prevent any women or girls from being killed in wars and that if we have to have them, only males should be killed. He said in the ancient Persian Greek war, over one and a half million people were killed and ALL of them were males. They kept their women out of their wars as we should today. The last major war we had where this was done was the American Civil War where 660,000 males were killed while 60 women were. My husband said they should have protected the 60 women better even if a thousand more males died doing it.

Yes there are more single women but maybe women are starting to realize we are the superior gender and more women are tired of having to marry beneath them by marrring a male. No wonder they call wifes the better half.

Women should never be placed in harms way because of wars. It should be male only.

The male gender is a major determinant is a major determinate of public health in the U.S. and Europe and worldwide. Males are at an age adjusted greater risk of premature death than women for causes that should affect men and women equally, although poorly understood biologic differences exist

In reality, the biological differences should be clear, being male is a disease and I think a good part of it rests in their testicles. It is odd how males brag about having balls and the bigger the balls the better yet their own balls often help lead to their early death. I think someone would be nuts to want a pair of nuts between their legs.

Nothing shows that women are superior than war does. George Carlin said:

I look at war a little bit differently. To me, war is a lot of prick-waving! OK? Simple thing. That's all it is. War is a whole lot of men standing out on a field, waving their pricks at one another. Men are insecure about the size of their dicks, and so they have to kill one another over the idea. That's what all that asshole jock bullshit is all about. That's what all that adolescent, macho male posturing, and strutting in bars and locker rooms is all about. It's called "dick fear!" Men are terrified that their pricks are inadequate and so they have to compete with one another, to feel better about them, and since war is the ultimate competition, basically, men are killing each other in order to improve their self-esteem! You don't have to be a historian or a political scientist to see the bigger-dick foreign policy theory at work. It sounds like this: "What, they have bigger dicks? Bomb them!" And of course, the bombs and the rockets and the bullets are all shaped like dicks. It's a subconscious need to project the penis into other people's affairs. It's called "fucking with people!"

So war is really about a lot of pricks shooting other people simply because they too have a prick. Oh but they have to have balls too because you cannot blow the balls of someone who does not have them. I will agree with one thing, if we have wars, only those with a prick and a pair of balls should be placed in harm's way. I

would have no objection to letting women blow a male's balls off or even cut them off but keep her safe and let her cut the balls of rapist or terrorist or other males that will be executed.

A male dying to save women has been long practiced. I read about a military unit where ten thousand males surrounded to an enemy that would soon defeat them knowing every male would be killed but the women and girls would be saved. Even though there were about 1,000 women, ten thousand males sacrificed their life because they knew they were be defeated and everyone would be killed so they made a deal that the women would be spared. I guess they knew one woman was worth ten males even if they could not admit women were superior, their actions proved they knew they were

Once a British warship was in transit and it had women and children on board. Something happened that it was going to sink and although they had room for all the women and children and about 300 men, the captain ordered ALL the males to stay on the ship so that the life boats would not be overturned risking the life of the women. So several hundred of the males died so that the women could live. Another sign that these males knew they were expendable and women were not thus indicating they knew women ares superior to males.

Growing up female I was taught that men and my brothers were superior to me. I was with my mother to serve meals at occasions etc. But thanks to the internet I now believe that women are the superior gender. Men complain about their precious balls more the women complain about periods. I am amazed how things change, how men could complain about testicles when women give birth, have periods and have to raise children..
May 12, 2011 8:58 AM
KELLY GIBBS :
As a woman, I am very much surprised that so many dislike their testicles, the very center and core of your manhood. It almost seems that all the problems of being male, is due to man’s testicles and the only advantage of being female is that we have none. Perhaps you are over looking the good qualities of manhood, and neglecting the good qualities of being female. There is more to being a woman than not having those things between our legs. We are mothers, the only one that can have and nurture children with our breasts. It is true that girls are born healthier and are often smarter then boys in grade school and out number men in college. But men also have their muscular strengths, and most women would choose not to live with out men. And most of our scientist are men, and women have not and perhaps will never catch up in science. And although women do live much longer then men, few men would want to live their last years in a nursing home
without their mate.

All women want is the chance to be equal, in what both genders are equal to, that is our brains and leadership. The world has know many smart men and women and all that we want is for us to be equal
here we are equal, and let other differences lie where they may be.


Like every female I was taught at an early age that boys have balls and girls do not. We usually don’t care and only get amusement watching them pee standing. They we see ball tapping and boys trying to tap other boys in the nuts. Eventually they invite us girls to play, and of course we never get hurt as we are missing those balls in a sac. Although sometimes the boys would really get mad and hurt us in different ways.

Lastly I love the comment that us women have got our men by the balls. First of all women do not think about sex as much as men. We sort of think about it more in our fertile time of the month, not every moment like a man. And true when we do have it, it is certainly more lasting and longer then a male, but face it guys it does not happen as often, but I will say it seems that the female orgasm is better and more intense At an early age young girls are taught by their mothers and older sisters that if they are bothered by a man, there is this weak spot in the groin that we can kick, to disable the bum. Then as girls grow older they see it for them self when a guy gets hit in the nuts in sport, or if she is courageous, she will attempt to hit or grab a boy in the nuts herself to prove its weakness. But that is as far as it usually goes, unless gal is molested and she uses it in self defense. Then boys come, love comes, and here we have that stiff
thing, with those testicles below. Personally, I never knew what to do with, always afraid that I might injure them, so the guy says “hold them and give them a squeeze”, so I do it to make him. So in effect he wants me to have him by the balls, I guess to think that I as a female have this magical power over him.

There are really few women out there who like the idea of ball busting. This is a guy or guy domination thing where he wants a woman to control him in the only way a girl can. That is of course through the testicles that only men have and women do not.

To say a woman is superior to a man in just conjecture. We are both equal. Although I seem to think that more women accept being female then men being male. More men wish they were born female then the opposite. So if that is the case, then I guess since more people wish to be women, then women must be superior, but for no other reason, then by those who voted on the internet, Mr. Poll and other site where it is always said that women and female is the superior gender.

Kelly in one comment you said "But thanks to the internet I now believe that women are the superior gender" but in the next you said we are equal. I hope you have not changed your mind about women being superior as even though I am a male I know women are vastly superior to us males and personally I am glad you are superior

Kelly enjoy the fact you are superior to us. I DO! I am glad women are superior

There are other reasons women remain single. Males are more likely to win a Darwin Award which is given to someone who kills themself doing stupid things. Almost all of those who win this award are MALE. Someone on the Darwin Award website wrote this as to why almost everyone who does this is a male:

"I just might be able to answer the mystery that the vast majority of Darwin Awards contenders are male. I've studied evolution, and there is an academic theory that males are, in a sense, evolution's playthings. Far fewer males than females are needed to propagate our species. Males can therefore be used as an experimental breeding ground, as we are more dispensible. In most species females tend to be close to the average in physical and mental dimensions, whereas males are seen to display extremes more frequently. With human intelligence this also seems to be the case, as there are many more male geniuses, though this may also be due to the sexism rampant in our societies. On the other end, there are also many more idiots, who often end up qualifying for the Darwin Awards."

I do like the way he (yes a male wrote this) said that there may be more male geniuses, though due to the sexism rampant in our societies. We do know there are many times more male idiots but now that women are getting an equal chance, we are seeing more women who are a genius and I am sure we will see fewer males who are. Like it or not males, women are taking over the world and the sooner the better for everyone, including the males.

These are just more reasons to accept that women are far superior to us males.

I was watching Family Feud recently and one of the questions was "What do little GIRLS do better then little BOYS.



The top answer was: EVERYTHING! I agree with this. There is nothing males can do better than women or girls because women and girls are the superior gender and even Family Feud know girls are superior to boys.

LOL, I love that Family Feud question. I would love to see a couple of follow up questions too.

"What can women do better than men" (EVERYTHING) Just to make sure everyone knows that the fact that women are superior starts at birth when a girl is born. She is superior to the males that are born that day too.

What can men do better then women" (NOTHING)

I would really love to see a Gallup poll (or other major poll) asking:

Who is the superior gender

1: Males
2: Females
3: Males and Females are equal

Other than asking the gender of those answering, it would need to be anoumous but I think we would see a majority say women are superior and I would not be surprised that more males would have the balls to admit it than women.

for the record I hate to say there is alot of blind comments on here. No gender is better then the other, and in fact need each other to complete each others lifes. The problem I even see on here is men siding with women for what reason I dont know. To me Men and women are different in a sense that in todays society women sometimes seek things in a man that are not achievable. A women if actully beautiful or not believes she deserves a wealthy man, that is physically appealing enough that it either pleasing her other female friends, or makes them and or other strangers jealious. Alot of women want a man they can brag about period. To me I really believe a women wants a good man, and sees them everyday but some are very weak in terms of letting society choose a mate for them. To me this is a major part of why alot of women are single, and yes foreign women dont really get cought up in that nonsense based on their morals they are bread with. Yes men are at fault at how they act towards women, and the choices they make, but to me society has changed to being a womens world now not a mans. A women makes a man get a nice car, make sure he fronts with money, acts like every women wants him, talk about how big he is because most women promote these attributes. So to me men and women if you want to be happy look in your soul and when you meet someone wether they be poor, or rich, tall or short, fat or skinny and they give you that warm tingle, that increase heart rate. If they give you great conversation, listens to you, and seems like they will be there for you through thick and thin then be with them, and dont worry about statics or if any of your friends or peers will like him or her do it because its going to make you happy period.

Dear Guest,

I am having a difficult time disagreeing with your argument, even though I would like to."

Female logic at it's best...

In my own opinion, there can be a number of reasons why so many women remain single. As stated in the article above, many women post-phoned marriage until they finish college and establish their careers. In some cases, it is becoming difficult for women to fine the right man they wish to spend the rest of their lifes with, and some do not marry well into their mid 30's.

Moreover, those that do marry after being single for a number years. Have coinhabited with a partner for a couple or few years, and had a sexual relationship before marriage. Including some non-Hispanic white women that were involved in an interracial relationship. However, in some communities where there is a large poll of single African-American men and a shortage of non-Hispanic white men available. Non-Hispanic white women are 3 times likely to marry African-American men as an alternative.

It is also important to understand based on this article above. More women are becoming more independent, and are enrolling for college to better themselves enconomically without being depended on men.

Feminism has been a disaster for the American family and particularly for our children. Most of those children will be raised by a single female and have a high probability of being poor or going to prison thereby. The push to turn women into men by our controllers has made a horrific mess of natural gender roles.

This is why a lot of good American men are seeking more traditional women overseas. Unfortunately once the foreign woman becomes contaminated by our evil and shallow cultural mores, easy divorce and a quick payday for the woman soon follows. Although I love them, I would not recommend that an American man marries an American woman at this time, unless they are Amish or from some other traditional fundamentalist christian sect.

Men who worry more about how much a wife might take from them in a divorce shouldnt be marrying in the first place. If all marriage is to a man, is what material wealth he accumulates, and not the love and memories he builds with his wife, then a man like that shouldnt get married in the first place, because he doesnt value the woman he is marrying, he is only valuing the possessions he intends to gain through marriage to the woman.

Wow gosh...women have become so disagreeable, blame it all on the women, sure it's all their fault! Did you ever think that it could be that men could be part of the problem too?

How about 40 year old husbands who stop paying attention to their wives of the same age because they are bummed that their wife can't look like the 20 year olds flaunting all around them? Maybe if men started thinking less with their you know what, and could actually appreciate a women their age, then maybe there wouldn't be so many single women today! Us women don't take of our men so well all those years so that you can ditch us many years later for a hotter younger woman, gee, I wonder why women might be so pissed off that they might feel cheated, just a little?!!!
