Klappentext
"A double revolution is at work in
modern American love: A revolution in higher
education has created the most professionally
accomplished and independent generation of young
women in history, and a revolution in mating has
created a prolonged and perplexing search for Mr.
Right. Based on extensive research and interviews,
Why There Are No Good Men Left explores the
romantic plight of this high-status woman with
findings that are sure to rouse debate.
Cultural historian, Barbara Dafoe Whitehead
documents the new social climate in which the
demands of work, the epidemic of cohabitation, the
disappearance of courtship, and the exacting
standards of educated women are leading them to stay
single longer–and to find the search for a mate even
harder when the time is right. From the frontlines
of college, where dating is dead, to the trenches of
corporate solitude, Whitehead reports on a wholesale
shift that has stacked the marriage deck against the
best and brightest women.
The thirty-something, perplexed single woman is
today’s new cultural icon. Why There Are No Good
Men Left is (...) analyzing where she came from
and to ask how she can realize her dreams of lasting
love."

Das Buch in der Debatte
- COMBE, Rachel (2002): My
Prince will come.
Are all the good men taken? A scary new book warns that
delaying marriage may mean missing out on it. Rachel Combe
explains why you shouldn't worry,
in: Elle, Dezember
- Inhalt:
Rachel COMBE beschreibt zuerst die Zielgruppe
des Buches (unverheiratete, gut gebildete, erfolgreiche
20-40jährige Frauen kurz: NSWs für New Single Women) und rät
dann den Lesern von ELLE mit einer einsichtigen
Argumentation vom Kauf des Buches ab:
"Whitehead
believes that many men are not interested in marriage
anymore. They can get sex and companionship without a ring,
she says, both from women willing to co-habit with them and
women who, as Whitehead puts it, »behave like sexual dairy
queens«—as in, they give the milk away for free, so why
would the guy buy the cow? Get it? You’re the cow."
- Neu:
GIBSON, Fiona (2002): Get a life, get off that shelf.
A new book arguing that women should hurry to marry has
split America. But what if Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Not
Quite?,
in: The Observer v. 08.12.
