Well the problem, with all sorts of people, is that plenty of people, man or woman, really don’t get the big picture nowadays. Procrastination or dodging the concept of commitment and/or responsibility for some future time, only to find out that once you finally want to do it, it’s become so hard to do it. The whole cohabitation issue is perhaps one of the biggest ones out there, add that to rampant personal bankruptcy, and the aging crisis, as you pointed out, and we’re pretty much due for a worldwide “natural selection” event. It’s sad, but it’s likely to happen, and there isn’t much that really can happen except slow it down.
I also agree with you, strangely enough, on the whole separation issue as well. There seems to be a wedge in successful relationships between the genders, although my would-be wife gave me the perfect message and inspiration when I dated here: “Are we really going anywhere with this?” to which I responded “yes”, and the rest is history.

Men see the picture all too clearly; many of the men of today are the sons of the men of the last generation who lost everything as families fell apart (with the helping hand of government). There is simply no way to convince them that there is an upside to marriage and families, especially at a time when it is difficult for a white man to get an education, a job, or a promotion; this is the natural result of basing these things on vaginas and melanin rather than merit/ablity.

Men’s opportunites grow, not diminish, with time (and they can have kids when they are 70). Also, younger men can choose an imported bride to provide them with the families native women defer or outright refuse to bear.

Cohabitation skirts the whole alimony issue, and for guys is a rational reaction to girlfriends who won’t bear them children anyway (until they’re 40 and want one to play with). The natural selection event is hapening today across the United States; the breeding imports are inheriting the earth, while the Americans buy new cars and iPhones instead.
These trends are changing the demographics of this country at a rapid rate; we can see around us today what was forecast to come about in 2050.
