Man Drought!

i'm blaming statistics for my current status.

Aussie man drought revealed
By Matt Wade
July 26, 2005 - 11:49AM

There were 54,000 more men than women aged 30-something in Australia in 1976.



But by 2004 there were 20,000 fewer men than women aged 30-something, a new report shows.

The reason for the so-called "man drought" is that the globalisation of labour is now attracting young men in particular out of Australia to stronger economies in the northern hemisphere.

Generation X women have had access to fewer men from which to choose a partner than did baby boomer women 30 years ago.

Mom: Well, we could join together in prayer.
Son: Uh huh. Is there anything useful we can do?
Mom: No.

I heard that for every single man in Melbourne, there are three single women.

And bizarrely enough, I found I did better in the three weeks I was there that I had in a few months here. Hmm.

Depends on your definition of 'person'.

I'd never stoop as low as my cousins - there's only one who's remotely attrractive, and the last time I saw him, he was wearing a dress.

It may also be harder (no pun intended) due to the growing percentage of the population that is openly homosexual? Would be interesting to know what the gender split is for that.
