[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow to the other posts. This is DC, where it is a rite of passage for every woman to marry in her 30s and have kids in 30s and 40s. Maybe the pps are from out of the area?

As for me, I met my DH at 34 and was married at 35. He was 36/37. Married over 20 years. [/quote]

I think it might be something of selection bias.  If you meet very young, you are more likely to contribute than if you think I'm just like everyone else.[/quote]

This. Women ( primary contributors to DCUM)  have a tendency to think meeting and marrying young  is an accomplishment they got chose so they are more likely to answer at the same time, women tend to think marring late is something to be ashamed of do less likely to answer.[/quote]

Why would anyone be ashamed of being single? It’s bad luck, not a personal flaw.[/quote]

I don't disagree. But you must admit in society there's this idea that people who are still single at a certain age or don't marry until later are defective in some way. Fortunately I think these attitudes are changing and value especially for women isn't do attached to relationship status.[/quote]
