Yeah…there’s a massive generalization in this article that ‘no one’ in this generation is going the traditional route without first passing through the Tinder-sphere. Au contraire. Yes, fewer people may be getting married than in the past, but there’s a definite birds-of-a-feather effect to articles like these. Nearly everyone I grew up with and went to college with got married in their late 20s, some of us held out until now (our early 30s), but the majority were always a family oriented group. I think those drawn to serial monogamy tend to naturally find each other, and those who maybe aren’t so enchanted with the idea also tend run in their own circles. The singles I know from work and family connections spend a lot of time with other singles, and those of us in long-term relationships likewise seem to often find ourselves at very couples-heavy events.
As a married heterosexual man, articles such as this offer a form of armchair travel opportunity.
