Reply To: Oversupply of Shadchanim? No Need for More Shadchanim?

I am a proponent of the age gap theory, but I don’t think it’s the only issue. There are fewer older single boys than girls, but there are still plenty of older boys, and increased efforts to match singles can help.

Also, some have claimed that the 22, 23, 24, & 25 test old boys all want the same 19-20 year old girls. If that’s true, then more effective shadchanus should get the boys married younger, thus reducing the age gap.
