Whereas in days gone by it wouldve led to you being called a spinster or old maid now is it cool to be a single woman ? And has the increase in , or the perceived increase in lesbianism contributed to this in any way ?
Q: "Is it normal to be female and single nowadays? "
A: That appears to make me 'abnormal'. I'm definitely single but the last time I took a look 'down below' I decided that I'm definitely not female! ;-)
Chris, as long as there are more women than men, yes, I guess you fall short of the norm... The upside is you're more in demand than they are (with luck)
Being single is no 'stranger'for women than for men....and it probably is all to do with women having more freedom,disposable income,not needing to be dependent on anyone(male)
Lipstick lesbianism seems to be the current fashion...again because it is now acceptable and needn't be hidden...looks like it is popular amongst the young. maybe it is 'cool'..lol
I think its homosexuality. Look at pop-stars at their pinnacle, Robbie/GMichael/Elton etc they prefer to share their lives with other men.
However, hi-earning career women can't find men to match their incomes and thereby make themselves 'unmarriageable'. These women live by high-standards which few men can attain and make men feel inferior.
