BLOOM'S

KOSHER CATERING
AND CARRY-OUT

Postponement of mar-
riage by young people has
been widely noted by social
scientists. Children of the
post-World War II genera-
tion chose to concentrate
on education and career.
The result has been a
steady rise in the median
age of marriage, from the
record lows of 20.1 for
women and 22.5 for men in
1956. The median age
means that half marry
younger than that age and
half older.
As the age at first mar-
riage increases, so does the
percentage of people who
have never been married.
For men 20 to 24 years of
age, 75.6 percent were
single, the largest share for
that age since 1900, when
it was 77.9 percent. For
women 20 to 24 years of
age, 58.5 percent were
single, the most ever in
records dating to 1890.
Judging by the ratio of
single men to single
women, marriage prospects
would appear to be better
for younger women and
older men. The study found
that from the age of 15 to
24 there were 112 single
men for every 100 single
women; from 25 to 34 there
were 119 single men for
every 100 single women.
After that age, single
women outnumbered single
men. From the age of 35 to
44, it was 84 men for every
100 women; from 45 to 64,
the ratio was 54 men for
every 100 women, and after
the age of 65 there were
only 26 single men for
every 100 women. ■
