A lack of equal male partners, rather than career or educational ambitions, is why more women are trying to prolong their fertility
elfish career-driven women. Gullible dupes of the fertility industry. Victims of the patriarchy.
This, she says, reflects the growing gap between men and women going into higher education. In 2019, there were 28% more women than men in higher education in the US – and soon, it is projected, there will be two university educated women in America for every one university educated man. This, says Inhorn, has left a stark imbalance when it comes to finding an equal partner.
“Sometimes men would joke or insult them about their jobs or say ‘you’re smarter than I am, I can’t go out with you’. I mean, just really blatant kinds of misogyny and discrimination,” she says. The answer, Inhorn’s research found, falls into two categories. One is the “mating gap” and the other is what she describes as “reproductive waithood” – the state women are forced into by a lack of suitable male partners.
