Yes, I saw that, and considering that most of the things going on that people did not know about each other 50 yrs ago, and now the ‘out of the box’ weirdness they do know about each other, it boggles the mind, that these statistics are so close.

The four or five states not included should not have made too big a difference in the statistics, maybe CA? I did not look up State by State. What did surprise me is that deaths are included, and would military losses affect it?...or the additional 10 years of death statistics? Those could be a study of their own.

The improvement in numbers has to do with people being older now, when they marry...I guess. Some people are mature at 18, some at 30 or 40, some never!

I really felt sad, that so many men now think marriage is evil, and all women are money grubbers. SAD!

That's by design.

I believe the media and governments crank up the agitprop, that men don't want to marry because they think all women are money-grubbing post-modern feminists seeking to drain their bank accounts and spirit...that they'd rather watch porn 24/7 instead, and live a metrosexual existence with bromances, feeling morally superior about not bringing an environmental scourge, i.e. children, into the collective.

This agitprop is working well in Europe....

They've achieved zero population growth via fewer marriages and more children out of wedlock. In turn - surprise - they've got a YUGE migrant problem fueled by politicians demanding that they need labor. THIS...is EXACTLY the end game these agitprop-pushing statists want.

Yes, more US men are eschewing marriage and there are divorce horror stories. But our marriage and fertility rates remain above those in Europe...American men on balance haven't bought in to this women-hating dystopia, despite articles like these. Though we must remain on guard lest America becomes like Europe, I remain optimistic about the US' future.
