Reply To: Shidduch Crisis: Women who earn too much

Winnie: Even if we fully grant your theory as being correct, your attribution for the cause still indicates that women pursuing a higher education/high paying field, and the time of their life invested in that pursuit at the expense of seeking marriage, often leaves them left at the altar unmarried.

Often by time they choose to focus on getting married rather than focus on their future earnings potential, their best (if not all) opportunities to get married has already passed.

Note that often these older girls started pursuing their higher education shortly after high school, when many other girls were instead focusing on marriage rather than career.
