  • Inhalt:
    Die Psychologin Bella DePAULO kritisiert die neue Titelgeschichte des Nachrichtenmagazins Newsweek zum "Marriage Crunch":
                "Newsweek wants to know why they were so wrong. I have a different question: Why did it matter? Even if the original statistics had been true, why should that have been a cause for trauma or hysteria? At my age (52), the chances that I will ever be a butcher, a baker, or a candlestick maker are surely less than 2.6%, but that awareness does not send me scurrying fretfully into the offices of a therapist. The myth about low marital odds can have the power to incite panic only if it is co-dependent on a second myth that is even more pernicious -- that life as a single person is shameful and sad."
