Singaporean women are increasingly able to access equal opportunities in employment and have eclipsed men in attaining higher education.

In Singapore, the standard narrative has long been that fewer people are having children because fewer people want children. However, a recent analysis from Singapore’s Department of Statistics (DOS) shows that falling birth rates now result primarily from increasing rates of singlehood, rather than from couples choosing to be child-free.

Data that my colleagues and I collected in the Singapore Perspectives 2024 (SP2024) survey helps to explain what is going on. It found that 40 per cent of women between 21 and 34 years old do not foresee themselves getting married.

What about men stats?

Women who unable to find partner are always presented as financially independent, stronk, hab standards.

Men who no want partner are presented as low ses, loser, unable to meet standards, hab behavioral problems, and put down and shamed in subtle ways.

Honestly the levels of misandry men nowadays are subjected to ish eberywhere.
Juz that many donch realize.

High income, social media and K drama raising expectations.

Take what you read from ST with a grain of salt.
Local news maybe can read but think critically pls.

Trump news definitely will be fake news if it's on ST. Don't bother.

Not just women. Men also need to think twice before dipping into marriage. Even DINKs also can get cheated on and lose asset.
