Trend for Late Marriages on the Rise

The Chosun Ilbo (English Edition): Daily News from Korea - Trend for Late Marriages on the Rise
“Baby boomers in Korea who are now in their 50s have a lot on their minds. They are facing an average retirement age of 53, while they can no longer depend on their children to take care of them in their old age. Their most pressing concern is getting their children married, preferably while they are still earning money so they can afford a ceremony.”
“Last year, the average marrying age was 31.4 for men and 28.3 for women. More and more Koreans are choosing to marry later in life. In 1981, Korean men got married at an average age of 26.4 and women when they were 23.2. This means in 27 years, the average marrying age has been pushed back five years.”
“In the affluent Gangnam district of southern Seoul, 81.3 percent of women between 25 and 29 years of age are single, while 44.4 percent of women aged 30 to 34 are single.”
“With more and more women getting married later in life, couples with older wives are rising, while the numbers of couples with older husbands are declining. Among the couples that wed last year, 16 percent saw older women marry younger men. This is a large increase considering the fact that such couples only comprised 9.6 percent of all marriages 10 years ago. Among women aged 35 to 44, 3.5 out of 10 end up tying the knot with younger men. Such women fit the label of "Gold Miss," with good jobs and competitive incomes. They usually prefer younger, more docile companions.”
And you wonder why “Golden Misses” don’t want to have a baby? According to the Korean media it is these single women who are responsible for declining birthrate! So all you young docile dudes out there start learning how to do some housework! Practice taking care of children, shopping for groceries, etc. because you are gonna be “Mr. Mom”. So this is why “Meta-sexual guys” are looking good for the “Alpha Fema-Nazis” who want girly boy toys.
