  • Its quite reflective of bachelor bands of various species in the wild. It sucks! Its unproductive. I think they get pushed out of the system and cannot get back in, if they want. Women? There are far more employment opportunities for them now. Companies + Gov't, and NGO's got to fill diversity quotas. The single white male gets the least help of all. IMO, wrong! WRONG! Its like making them expendables. That's misguided cultural convention. Maybe its a natural behavior thing? Not justifying it at all here. Aiming to understand to change this, if it is a hardwired action by humans. I'm thinking of that line,"women and children first". I am female, btw. Probably, makes what I'm saying worth a bit more. I'm aiming to be neutral here. Figure out WHY this human behavior occurs, then do something about it. These men who are homeless probably lack social connections? That kind of creates life uncertainty which breeds all sorts of bad habits (oh habits that rich people suffer too, but can easily hide or rectify with instant rehab). Could be a pride thing? Independent nature? Women tend to turn to people for help. Men don't do that unless they're joining a group of like-minded men they can rely on.

    This makes me think of the interesting redistribution of the gender ratio in college. More students are female these days than ever before.

    I think there's even a theory (no idea if it is true, lol!) that correlates the surplus male population to a country's brewing drive to spark warmongering with other entities. If the human sex ratio creates too many males, not enough females, then you get a lot of single men with less options to find an economic foothold + a mate. Its kind of plausible (China blows this theory at the moment. But, China is getting a bit testy with sovereignty disputes over islands so, who knows what the future holds. Imagine? They would have a lot of single males to recruit for military purposes). Look at terrorist operatives in the Middle East? Lots of single guys with no where else to go are highly apt to join a terrorist group. That becomes their identity + support. Scary!!!! This crap can be stopped. These guys need places that are welcoming where they can belong. They need accessible economic opportunities that are realistically attainable. That would give them stability (stable people lose the desire for stirring conflict). They can't exactly have a mainstream social life without an adequate financial foundation in place.

    That's enough pondering from me, if anyone reads all that.
