spinster laments being in "romantic recession"

[MatureDJ]

It's the harridan that wrote "Marry Him". Here she describes her plight as being stuck in a romantic recession after a romantic asset bubble where her sexual market value was at too high of a level (i.e., having a seemingly endless supply of good men) so she didn't settle, but now she is stuck in having difficult time in finding a man to settle.

Some interesting comments as well.

This is a well worn path that women have been gibbering about for ages....however what is interesting is that neo-liberal elite publications such as Atlantic and NPR have taken up the torch for female hand wringing. This is likely a sign that the negative effectives of female hypergamy is reaching the top of the pyramid..upshot for men? More wealthy, forlorn, alcoholic, yoga toned puzzy to pump and dump if you have the style and panache to pull it off.
