Man Drought?
The funning thing is, I think this article about the "man drought" facing single women in Australia's urban areas was supposed to make me feel sorry for the women. But instead the demographer's formulas for determining the pool of eligible bachelors just left me feeling really sorry for the guys. "From a pool of 1.32 million men aged 15 to 24, he took out all men who said they were married, in a de facto relationship, gay, have children from a previous relationship and who earn less than $70,000 a year. It left a pool of only 60,000 men..." So if you have a kid or your make less than $70K a year, you're supposedly unmarryable. That just sucks. I submit to you men that any woman with these criteria isn't someone you wanted to be with anyway.
