Just sort of a general interest piece from the Times today regarding the fact that now 51% of all U.S. adult woman do not live with a spouse. This is the first time this figure has accounted for more than 1/2 of all U.S. woman. It's essentially drive by three trends:

1. Woman outliving men (life-span issues);

2. Woman (and I suppose both genders) getting married later;

3. Higher divorce rate;

I don't think these trends are anything new...it's newsworthy only because it's more than half now. More thoughts on legal and public policy impact to come...
