Are shadchanim refusing to redd shidduchim to 18/19 year olds? Are they being prohibited from doing so? or are they simpy being encouraged to spend time focusing on the girls who didn’t just start dating, a group that previously got less attention they needed.
If you think that’s a bad thing you are free to your opinion.
Re: your statment that their are rougly the same number of boys who have dated 10+ years and are still single to the number of girls who have dated 10+ years and are single, just the boys don’t go to proffesinal shadcahnim. You are free to think/believe what you want. However you must be privy to a secret group of boys who are hiding from civilation because no one seems to know they exist. Are there tens surely, a few hundred possibly,,, but no where near the numbers of older girls.
Heaven please tell us where they can be found, or at the very least please tell the girls who are so interested in getting married on which planet these hiding boys reside… becasue it surely isn’t in North America.
As for you insinusation that the divorce situation is somehow related to boys getting maried younger (something that that shidduch efforts haven’t really begun to accomplish) is a unfair attempt to discredit legitmate efforts towards easing the plight of the girls.
