“Single People, Double Digits”

America’s marriage rate for 2009 – 2010 dropped to a record low of 51%, down from 72% in 1960.  Experts are divided on the cause, unsure if it’s Kim Kardashian or Kris Humphries that’s really to blame.

The statistics show that the only ones who want to get married anymore are gay people.

Studies suggest that money may be a factor in people holding off marriage.  It is true that, in the current economy, it’s much harder than it used to be to find someone to marry for money.

Though most people are influenced to marry by their church, that message is contradicted the more powerful message of reality TV.
