and won't get out of it anytime soon, it is not surprising some insecure men feel women should simply marry young, to any guy who comes along, so they can get out of the labor force and make it easier for unemployed men to have the jobs women are taking away from them.
That is what is REALLY underlying this message that women should marrying young, trying to scare them into thinking if they don't get married by the age of 25 or definitely 30, nobody will want them. It's about the economy.
It is the same message the Rosie the Riveters were given at the end of World War II to get out of the labor force to make room for the returning servicemen.
By the way, marriages of 20, 21, or 22 are laughably young, especially if people are supposed to stay married until they die at 80 or 85. Talk about life imprisonment without parole.
