The Uber Theme Of Our Time

Mate selection the Western world. 

Women want and seek equality in the workplace (ie wages) but when it comes to mate selection, want a man who makes more money than them. Can anyone do the math and see the problem? (ps - men don't care if a their mate makes less than them and may even prefer it). Thusly,

Morgan Stanley forecasts that 45 percent of working women between the ages of 25 and 44 will be single and childless by 2030, the largest share in history. Single women are expected to grow by 1.2 percent annually from 2018–2030 compared with an 0.8 percent growth for the overall US population. By 2030, the percentage of single women will outpace that of married women.

Careful what you wish for because you might just get it.

But seriously, more and more, I'm noticing legal rules in our society creating unexpected cultural externalities. Could not the excesses of wokeness at least be partially explained by a whole lot of unhappy (and I'm guessing a disproportionate number of single) women? Should this not be at least considered?
