This is not meant to be some sort of "gotcha" question, rather something that I never really understood in the often cited dating statistics. Given that we have more or less a 50/50 male/female society: If we talk about how men can't get a relationship, shouldn't there be an equal amount of women who can't? Is there a substantial amount of lesbians? Or do they simply refer to be alone? Are you only counting women under 30, but men of all age? Where are the surplus women from those statistics?
