Young never-married black women outnumber young never-married black men with jobs by 2/1

[Thuglet]

In 1960 young, never-married women were spoilt for choice. For every 100 of them aged 25-34, there were 139 young, never-married men with jobs vying for their attention. In 2012 there were just 91. For some groups, the gap is much bigger. Young never-married black women outnumber young never-married black men with jobs by a startling two-to-one (see chart). This helps explain why although African-Americans are more likely than other races to say they value marriage, only 26% of black women are actually married, compared with 51% of whites.

Wow. As @Emperor_ReinScarf mentioned, brehettes should be happy when they find a man with a job.

I guess our black queens have no choice but to find themselves a white man

Women of all races are college educated more than their men, why is it only black women use it as an excuse to bedwench?

Another propaganda piece. Still trying to understand why the fukking economist cares about black women getting married

It's not much better with white women and white men. Marriage rates are down across the board and will only drop lower.

I believe black people power (not all but a good bit) comes from the family structure.....no family no power



Too many people don't believe in marriage.... Why...because so many people keep staying with the WRONG man/women thus making them lose faith in each other.

How many black men and women work at the economist?
