A highly interesting study looking at the impact, of the reversal of the educational gender gap in favour of women (plus rising male unemployment), on relationships.

The prevalence of hypergamy (women “marrying up”) is in decline and hypogamy (women “marrying down”) is rising. While most studies on hypergamy/homogamy/hypogamy only take educational attainment into account, this study also looks at earnings and finds that 10% of relationships between couples aged 25-45 are hypogamous which apparently makes it more common than hypergamy…
