Hello, Guest!

Article about percentage of single men:
Nearly twice as many young men as women are likely to be single in 2022 - and experts are blaming the rise on the end of traditional male roles
porn and the pandemic. A Pew Research Center survey of more than 6
000 Americans found that 30 percent of the population identified as single. But when broken down by age group and gender
that number increased to 63 percent among men between the ages of 18 and 29 - a huge 12 percent increase since 2019.

By comparison
only 34 percent of women in that age group said they were single in 2022
a tiny 2 percent rise from the pre-pandemic era. Experts put the disparity down to some women dating each other - with research suggesting bisexual women make up a large share of the young-adult queer community - as well as many also dating older men. Meanwhile
according to the latest US Census Bureau report
the average age a man now gets married is 30
a notable increase from just under 24 back in 1950
while the average age a woman now gets married is 28. About 63 percent of men between the ages of 18 and 29 reported being single in 2022
a 12 percent increase from 2019. Meanwhile
only 34 percent of women in the same age group reported being single
a small 2 percent rise. A 2022 Pew survey laid out the disparities between men and women who reported being single. The survey also found that
while the average US adult was looking for dates and a relationship less often following the pandemic
women accounted for the least interested group. According to the data
49 percent of adults were looking for a committed romantic relationship or casual dates in 2019
but that number fell to 42 percent in 2022. Men
specifically
made up 61 percent of those looking for love in 2019
and by 2022
only half of men were seeking relationships. Women
however
only made up 38 percent of the 2019 figure
and in 2022
only 35 percent of women reported that they were looking to date or commit to a relationship. Experts weighing in on the rise of loneliness among young men said that the trend comes amid changing gender roles in America since the culture revolutions of the 50s and 60s. Rather than focusing on being homemakers
women are instead continuing to build their careers to close the income gap
said LA family psychologist Greg Matos. While on average men continue to make more than women in the workplace
women under 30 have closed the gap and actually earn more than their male counterparts in 22 different areas. Matos
who wrote a viral article about the diminishing opportunities for young men to find dates
said the latest wave of empowered women are not only seeking better wages
but also cutting out men who don't meet their standards - which often leaves lower-earning young men out in the cold. 'Women don't need to be in long-term relationships. They don't need to be married
' Matos told The Hill. 'They'd rather go to brunch with friends than have a horrible date.' While more Americans overall are getting married later in life
men are now
on average
getting married in their 30s
according to the US Census. Psychologists Greg Matos (left) and Fredric Rabinowitz (right)
who have written on the topic of masculinity
said women are not finding ideal partners in young men
and have suggested things have only gotten worse due to the isolation and lockdowns of the pandemic. Fred Rabinowitz
a professor at the University of Redlands who studies masculinity
added that the pandemic was likely to blame for the growing disparity between the number of men and women seeking serious partners. According to the Pew survey
only 25 percent of male respondents said they were exclusively looking for a committed romantic relationship
whereas 41 percent of women reported wanting the same. In comparison
19 percent of men said they were only looking for casual dates
and only 15 percent of women said they sought casual relationships. 'You have to think that the pandemic had an impact on some of those numbers
' Rabinowitz told The Hill
suggesting men had grown accustomed to the social isolation created by the pandemic lockdowns. '[Young men] are watching a lot of social media
they're watching a lot of porn
and I think they're getting a lot of their needs met without having to go out. 'I think that's starting to be a habit
' he warned.
