What are the statistics of men reaching an age and not getting married?
I decided years ago that I never want to get married.....I don't want to clean and cook for some guy...and that's what they want....so I am 47 and single and content. I see so many people in miserable marriages....I don't see happy ones.....unless they are married under 10 years or so....
makes sense on one level, 65 per cent seems high, and I wonder what the stats are for men not married by age 30,
but by age 30, I think sheer demographics puts more females than males in the population starting at that age group which of course increases as men and women age, [I mean my granddaddy loved the nursing home because he was one of the few males, plus he was tall and had a full head of hair, well he was a primo catch and he loved all the ladies attention, oops too bad for my evil step grandmother who was in the hospital portion of the home......LOL] since males have a tendency to engage in higher risk activities which means more males die before age 30 than females, then you add the recurring phenomenon that men over 30 are chasing females under 30, especially if they are looking for trophy wives and/or breeding material
