Fear to greed. "women delaying marriage are playing a collective game of chicken in order to avoid wasting any more of their youth and fertility on their husbands than absolutely necessary."

Jesus christ that first sentence says more about the sexual climate than entire books have achieved.

Marriage is a horrible idea for men today and is a horrible idea for the men of tomorrow. Dalrock, the tradcon, has a problem with diminishing female "wealthcare" otherwise misnamed "marriage" in the insane west.

I think it's more that women are delaying marriage because they're waiting for The One, and they buy into the "don't settle for less than perfection" thing. By the time fertility starts running out, keeping on waiting doesn't seem as appealing. I think the focus is more on waiting for mister right than avoiding waste of youth/fertility.

If younger women rush to fill the gap, then those 30 and 40 something year olds will be stuck reading 50 shades of grey spin offs, and working off lifetime gym memberships.

A man would have to be a either foolish or ignorant to get married today.

If he's not ignorant on the laws and odds lined up against him, he's a fool.

If he's foolish enough not to know this stuff, he's ignorant.

what all these studies fail to mention is that THE US ECONOMY IS IN THE SHITTER AND WILL BE FOR A LONG, LONG TIME!! THAT IS WHY PEOPLE AREN'T GETTING MARRIED!!

Video Games and the movie "her" show that men will be perfectly happy creating their own companionship one way or the other.

I have to disagree. This plays out like the typical prisoner's dilemma as set up. We all know who wins in PD. If people are voluntarily delaying marriage then those people aren't rational (cue the jokes) or the game as set up is wrong and people feel they gain more by delaying than by cooperating.

Same can be said for men as well.
