in the past women basically had to get married to survive. there were also religious reasons. now both of those reasons are basically gone and an increasing disillusionment with relationships leaves a large number of people men and women single by choice. many of these people will have some relationships but keep seperate residences and lives essentially.

i think this will have a large economic impact negatively when thse people grow old and have no one but government services to help take care of them. not to mention middle and upper class people have less kids while the lower class and poor religious immigrants continue to pump out kids creating more need for support from somewhere.
