Apparently men not graduating from college is one reason women are freezing their eggs.

Inhorn’s research found that women freezing their eggs tended to be in their late 30s, successful high-earning professionals (in both the US and the UK, where it’s not usually covered by the NHS, it is prohibitively expensive for most) and primarily single. “They were one after another women who had been successful in their career and at the same time had been looking for a partner, but they just couldn’t find that reproductive partner.”

This, she says, reflects the growing gap between men and women going into higher education. In 2019, there were 28% more women than men in higher education in the US – and soon, it is projected, there will be two university educated women in America for every one university educated man. This, says Inhorn, has left a stark imbalance when it comes to finding an equal partner.

Since there will soon be twice as many women graduating college as men, is it worth considering dating non college educated men? Or is not having a college degree a red flag?
