From ABCNEWS:

"Some demographers and labor studies experts fear this trend portends ominously for the mating game. American men are becoming less literate, less ambitious, less responsible, and less employable than women, they say. This can only mean bad things, the argument goes, for high-achieving women who want husbands who, say, contribute to society, hold their own in conversation and pay their own way.

"Andrew Sum, an economist with the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University, calls this effect the 'marriage squeeze.'

"'The choices for younger women will be more constrained than they were 20 years ago,' he said. 'This is a serious economic and cultural problem. Men are less mature today then they were 20 years ago. Not everyone will agree with me, but the evidence supports that.'"

Heh.
