AZ, you the number man. Do you know what percentage of within age marriages it will take to significantly ameliorate the problem? I have been zoche to participate or otherwise share in various simchos, and they’re not within range (including a 23 y.o. young woman who married a guy 3 full years older). I think this is what’s causing unease among people such as Cherrybim and myself. Will this get better with anything short of MANDATING? And what of other somewhat significant issues? If we address them, such as a radical chanoch l’naar campaign, easing the other “gaps” will that help too?
