Marriage Odds and War Effects on Men and Women
The article states that at age 18 the chance of marriage is 87 percent for girls and 83 percent for boys, with spinsterhood rates of 13 and 17 percent respectively. It notes that after 25 marriage chances fall, peaking around two thirds at 27 and halving by 30, with only about one in ten at 45. War could alter these patterns by reducing marriageable men and increasing casualties, as seen after World War I.
