This isn’t surprising. The humanistic culture of the government schools is so powerful that it overwhelms even the relatively strong Mormon culture. Imagine what it is doing to the average “happy-clappy” Evangelical teen and young adult.
As the percentage of women that are liberal is exceedingly high... why would any conservative male willingly spend time in the same room with them... let alone marry one
and since men are more often conservative then women... there is a problem
If you’re looking for a college educated woman... the supply is very limited
people get married when they get married. if they don’t, they don’t.
no big deal.
This is true for American and other Western women only.
From what I can tell, most Mormon women are quite conservative.
I don’t know much about Mormons except that I know a few.
Italians, French, Spaniards, Americans....a whole raft of men and women have practically lived with their parents for years longer than in a previous generation.
You think of someone getting on his car or his horse and striking out on his own at a young age, and such a thought, in comparison with what life has become, seems like a fairy tale.
It is a problem when an opposing culture, you don’t care much for replaces your culture.
Very urbane. Indeed, very European. Democide.
What surprises me is that Mormons believe in no sex before marriage. Usually that is an effective incentive to marry young.
I’ve never met a mormon family with more than 5 kids, anyway. Most I’ve met have fewer.
It’s as easy to have 5 starting at 30 as it is starting at 24.
I laughed out loud when I read the part castigating young men holding out for a 9.9 when they currently have a 9.7.
If they see a problem, then they see a problem, and they don’t want to buy.
But the message is: “Breed. Breed now. Partner be damned; just breed.”
That is hysterical!
Compared to when? Aren't there more than there ever has been, and aren't the colleges mostly female.
"Among adults 25 and older, 10.6 million in the U.S. who earned a master's degree or higher were women, compared to 10.5 million men."
"In terms of finishing college, women surpass men in earning bachelor's degrees, by 1.5 million."
I was wondering what constitutes the difference between a 9.7 and a 9.9 Mormon girl...
It’s easy enough for a guy to have 5 kids when he’s 27, but it ain’t so easy for the dame. If she waits until she’s 27 before having any, she’ll be lucky to pop out 3.
Funny — I thought women walked down the aisle. I thought men were waiting at the altar.
I married at 30.
Mostly because up until I met her, I just couldn’t find a woman worth marrying that felt the same about me - no more reason than that. There was no complicated explanation.
Thankfully it worked out the way it did - I have an amazing wife!
I shudder to think the hell I’d be living had I married any of the girls I dated from age 19 through 27...
I faced this too - and it got worse the older I got.
As a college educated person, I wanted a woman of similar background...I can thank FR for finally meeting my wife, but prior to that they were either insanely liberal, or conservative, but they otherwise drove me nuts.
And the bashing of American women has commenced...
I think he meant CONSERVATIVE college educated women.
