''Of course, some women marry for love and find a man's resources irrelevant,'' Buss says. ''It's just that the men women tend to fall in love with, on average, happen to have more resources.''
Which means that, on average, college-educated women and high-school-educated men will have a harder time finding partners as long as educators keep ignoring the gender gap that starts long before college. Advocates for women have been so effective politically that high schools and colleges are still focusing on supposed discrimination against women: the shortage of women in science classes and on sports teams rather than the shortage of men, period. You could think of this as a victory for women's rights, but many of the victors will end up celebrating alone.
Benefits of being a student.
There isn't a supposed discrimination against women in math and sciences, this is a fact.
It is also a fact that men are falling behind in total numbers. No need to denigrate one fact when both facts are true.
What would Munch know about pleasing his exes?
The opposite of...(Scary, isn't it, my absorption into Munchkinland...I'm a cautionary tale in dark glasses.)
But a lot of times cops get the tip because an ex-gf calls, mostly because the idiot either:
1. Gets really drunk and brags.
2. Break-up turns ugly...she tells him off and he gets all "You think that matters to me? I did xyz and nobody ever knew."
I thought white-collar guys were smarter, but crime makes you stupid.ETA: And if I keep posting like that nobody will invite me to any showers...EVER.
I should also note that this phenomenon was a problem for African Americans for years. When the issue became increasingly a problem for the White population, that's when far more people were taking notice.

also, what le nubian said.
The connections Tierney makes seem quite specious.

The human population is what--somewhere between 90 and 95% heterosexual? I have a sneaking suspicion that, statistical blips aside, het men and het women will keep finding each other.
Now that I'm getting a Master's degree, I have to dismiss like 88% of the population out of hand, and that's before we've even talked politics or salary!
It's ruff, mang.
