Does Sex and the City Predict the Future of Marriage?

Author

  • Roderick Duncan

Abstract

Some popular culture now suggests that women's attempts to find a suitable marriage partner are being frustrated. This economist argues that it may well be because women are becoming better educated and men aren't keeping pace. Will well-educated women start "marrying down"?
