> Women now substantially outnumber men on university campuses and outpace them in degrees earned, yet the preference for husbands who match or exceed a wife’s income and education has not correspondingly relaxed. The result is a radical market mismatch.

College educated women marry at the same rate they used to. They marry similarly earning men without collage degrees, who exist.

Marriage rates collapsed among non educated women/men. Complete collapse is among previously incarcerated men who are largely out of marriage market. And generally among poor.

But like, college educates women are the demographic that do marry.

In divorces involving college educated women, they initiate 90% of them. It’s bad news all round.

		Fun fact too: college educated women divorce less then others. So, their behavior does in fact leads to stability, their partners are happy or at least choosing to stay. What seems to happen is that if the marriage does not work, they tend to ve at the loosing side of it and have real option to leave.

		This means that when marriages implode women are the ones that call in the accident after the car has already crashed rolled over and caught fire. It tells you nothing about what killed the marriage
