It is a problem when an opposing culture, you don’t care much for replaces your culture.

Very urbane. Indeed, very European. Democide.

Your thinking (or at least expressing the subject as you have) is normal for the "secular (non-Mormon") society, but to a devout Mormon, the hereafter is of utmost importance and as they've been taught from the cradle onward, a man (and woman too, for that matter) MUST have a spouse to "attain the Celestial Kingdom."

Without a spouse, one would languish in a lower heaven and it's not acceptable (according to Mormon standards,) therefore marriage is a "must" not an "option."

But if most Mormon men delay marriage, it means their wives may only have six children instead of eight. Think of the consequences that could have.
