Please explain how either of these points in any way shape of form will alleviate the situation on shidduch island with 100 boys and 150 girls.
Do you agree with the numbers and offer a solution, OR do you still think that the numbers problem is a minor issue.
It is obviously IMPOSSIBLE to solve any problem without knowing what the problem is.
I posit that the shidduch crisis is overwhelmingly a direct result of the inequity of numbers. If we solve or alleviate the inequity of numbers then much has been accomplished. If not; everything else we attempt will be like fixing deck chairs on the titanic.
SO once again, is the discusion here about what is THE problem, or a debate about ways to perhaps alleviate the age gap.
