DY, please allow kapusta to bring a little sense and logic into the discussion.
I felt the need to chime in because she seems to be a sorely needed voice of reason here. We’re working with imperfect calculations and anecdotal evidence. (And while we’re on the subject of anecdotal evidence- I also, as other posters have commented, know at least as many older single guys as older single girls.)
As for Joseph asking who would cover the cost- the very same people who are paying for full page glossy ads and funding all kinds of shidduch initiatives.
We won’t get results until we’re working with solid facts.
