This is very interesting.

More than half of young people in the US are single, survey finds

A new survey from researchers at the University of Chicago found that over half of Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 do not have a steady romantic partner.

no relationship means no children
no children means population crash

I'm single and in my early 30's. I was engaged at 25 but decided I wasn't ready to settle down. I broke the engagement and have had great experiences with quite a few women. Being tied down with one woman is not for me quite yet.

An op ed by somebody named Catherine Thornbecke who writes for Good Morning America that offers "deals and steals on kitchen and home". Based on an unverified Chicago U. survey and opinion by the founder of the "smart dating academy". Yeah right.

That's far better than the converse, getting married and/or having kids when you are not ready financially or mentally.

And some people here are still afraid of immigration.

If "being tied down" is how you view it- it may not ever be for you, lol! And that's great, if that's what works for you.

There are too many people anyway.

You do realize what is going on our borders is not immigration, right? We are all for LEGAL immigration.

That depends on the country.

Some people are into some kinky stuff.

There most certainly are not.

..... We are all for LEGAL immigration.

ALL? You seem to have missed quite a few posts by quite a few douche bags here.

LMAO.
Wow, you STILL don't get it.

The planet is overrun by humanity.

I STILL do.

Wrong, and several crises of the future will revolve around a global population implosion.

This is very interesting.

But not surprising. After all:

1. Fewer kids today believe in marriage.
2. Far more women today are empowered to live without needing a man to support or defend them.
3. Fewer kids today want kids.
4. Many more today have kids out of wedlock.
5. Far fewer kids today can afford to buy a house, marry and raise a family.
6. Government today is not providing the social or economic stability most people want or need before making a major commitment.

Good, with the intelligence level of a good deal of youger folks (18-34) I hope they don't breed either.

Ok...... you STILL do don't get it.

Bad grammar, but thats the way you like it apparently.
