happy girl:
So long as the numbers are skewed strongly in favor of the boys why in the world should they go to shadchanim. They have plenty of names to chose from without going to shadchanim. The girls have no choice – so they do whatever the can get a date.
Even out the numbers = Even out the playing field = boys will start going to shadchanim just like the girls and solve a host of other problems at the same time.
Progress is being made B”H but their remains a long way to go.
