Record Number Of Women Now Live In Parents' Basement, Lack Of Weddings Blamed
It was less than two months ago that we brought you “The Mystery Of The ‘Missing Inflation’ Solved, And Why The US Housing Crisis Is About To Get Much Worse.” In it, we documented the inexorable rise of rents in America which, thanks to the housing crisis, has gone from being a society of homeowners to a society of renters, wiping out two decades of “progress” on the homeownership rate in the short span of seven years.
Of course to a certain extent (scratch that, to a “great” extent), the market sowed the seeds of its own destruction by creating ever more “creative” was to allow everyone, even those who couldn’t document their income, to realize the American dream.
Now, the surge in demand for rentals coupled with the fact that because the cost of capital on Wall Street is zero allowing PE to compete with everyday homebuyers has left millennials effectively stuck between rents the can’t afford and homes they don’t qualify for. Throw in a post-crisis economy that churns out waiters and bartenders thanks in part to the fact the very same $1.2 trillion in student loans that are weighing heavily on recent graduates’ finances and you have the perfect setup for a return to mom and dad’s basement.
On Wednesday, Bloomberg is out noting that at an astounding 36.4 percent, the number of women age 18 to 34 living with their parents is now the highest since record keeping began more than seven decades ago:
Some 36.4 percent of women age 18 to 34 lived with their parents or relatives in 2014, the highest since records began in 1940, according to a report released Wednesday by Pew Research Center in Washington. While the share of young men was even greater at 42.8 percent, it wasn't quite as high as it was some 75 years ago.
But the punchline here is that the Pew Center blames this rather alarming statistic on school and weddings:
College enrollment rates for both full- and part-time students have generally increased over the past couple decades, and some students may be trying to offset stiff tuition costs by bunking with their parents.
Eternal happiness can wait. Millennials are much less likely to be married than their parents were at their age, and marriage often serves as an impetus to move out.
We'll close with Pew's take on the economy and Harvard's. Note the vastly divergent "opinions." We'll let you decide who's right:
Pew:
The increase is puzzling considering the improved state of the economy and an improving job market that has helped more young people earn enough to venture out on their own. Here are some of the longer term forces that could be at play.
Harvard:
Millennials are also expected to continue experiencing rent burdens as they age. Having entered the labor market during and following the Great Recession, those in the millennial generation have received lower wages and experienced higher rates of unemployment and underemployment than their older counterparts at this point in their lives. As a result, millennials have less wealth accumulated, have delayed forming new households, and are less likely to become owners at the age that older generations had previously. In combination, we are likely to see additional household formation by millennials over the next decade and expect a relatively higher share to remain renters during that period.

If the weather wasn't so bad there could be more weddings.
Say, why don't we just start controlling the weather?
Obviously expectation is need seasonal adjustment.
Ummm, none of em happened to leave a contact number, did they? you know, so as they'd have something to do in the meantime while they wait...
Wyminz don't need no menzez. Only willing sperm donorz. After that, dey gots uncle sugah and planneded parenthoodzez to take cares of thems.
Doze lazy hoes need to getz wid da program.
Divorce laws and welfare have destroyed marriage. Lots of kids without a father for the military and jail cells. The more you know about the elite creeps the more you hate them.
"Family Court" should be called "fuck-the-man-up-the-ass Court"
If your lucky you'll find that special woman that'll stay with you long enough to have your children then leave and sue you for alimony and child support all the while denying you the right to see your children.
Pretty sure it is because of the insane bias divorce courts give to women.
Execute about 20 judges who illegally negated pre-nups and I think you will see a lot more marriages in the near future.
I'll just leave this here.

Who needs Women?
Nobody.
Unless you are lesbian.
Real men don't NEED women.
Men need women like fish need a bicycle.
There's no percentage in it.
TPTB have been very adept at destroying the family unit in the west... It all began in the 60's with the inception of the femnist movement... What we see today is a direct result of deacdes of social programming of women... I would not touch ANY woman that was exposed to US culture as it poisons any woman that comes into contact with it, natural born or immigrant...
Personally I blame the junk food industry.
Maybe if American women lost a few pounds and put on some make-up, things would be different. The lesbians and the feminists are turning our women into fat complaining bitches.
This will work wonders for the fertility rate. Keep importing African niggers and South American indians for the perfect combo. Oh I'm sorry, I mean people with genetically enhanced skin tonality, we have to keep this a 'safe place', right?
White people entered self-destruction mode, and no one else to blame for it.
megacorp talk radio just brought this up to

You mean the Jews and their Goyim associates have been very adept at destroying the family unit. And not only in the West. They did the same thing in USSR in the '20s. The situation got so bad that Stalin had to intervene and put a stop to it. Don't think for one second that I'm a fan of Stalin. He hijacked the Bolshevik Revolution and the Jews killed him. You can search some references for "the doctor's plot in 1953" or "sex in the Soviet Union". They managed to kill him, but the Jews never regained the reigns of the Soviet Empire. So they fled en-masse for Israel and USA. Their subversive methods are very well documented in Kevin MacDonalds' "Culture of critique and E. Michael Jones' "The Jewish revolutionary spirit and its impact on world history".

"Men On Strike: Why Men Are Boycotting Marriage, Fatherhood, and the American Dream - and Why It Matters" by Dr. Helen Smith.
http://www.amazon.com/Men-Strike-Boycotting-Marriage-Fatherhood/dp/15940...
I will say a lot of the problem is the smartphone.....they have relations with their phone now....they dont go out and talk to anyone..just text..take a selfie....and its all good...we are letting them videodrone themselves....I just worry if the power ever goes out for a few days...many will just die..
If it wasn't for sex, women would be hunted for sport.
But it is a lot of fun to own a plane...
Unless you fly over 300 hours per year, it is more cost effective to rent than to own an airplane... Trust me, I know, been there, done that... Same as women, cheaper to rent than to own...
In the 60's hippies painted their airplanes zany colors but they wouldn't fly after that. They weren't plain anymore.
If you're lucky enough like me, you find a woman that refuses to marry you.
I wonder if it would help if I actually ask her to marry me?
Silly. Any woman who would accept you obviously doesn't have the standards you want and is therefore not good enough for you.
Thanks for that contribution from the Groucho Marx school of marriage counseling.
Man ... I can have any woman I please.
Problem is ... I don't please any.
Poverty Pimps' Den.
More precise is "fuck-the-man-up-the-wallet Court"
I blame it on feminism. You couldn't pay me to go down that road again.
I bet they enjoy their little dungeons

keep the porn off of this site.
Cut it out with all the fucking porn links you idiot.
Poor bastard must be married...
My bitch fetches me sammiches. Long testosterone laidies!
Married to an Asian or Latina by chance?
English. Please.
If it's affecting women, something will be done about this.
Government sponsored Shot Gun weddings?
I wouldn't doubt it. In the USofA you would be raised until a woman chooses you to marry. Then you serve your whole life pleasing her, while she cares nothing for your happiness. Is the petition on Change.org yet?
Dave-o - A better idea for using women for taxation purposes. From now you need a Fucking License.
Anybody caught fucking with that fucking license you get a fine. If you dont pay the fine you go to jail and get to make widgits for corporations for .90 cents an hour.
Sponsored by Carls Jr. and Brawndo. 'Bating' also a fine but just a misdemeanor.
In regards to "bating", starting at the 3:00 mark.....

No seasonal adjustment needed - Marriage to todays Western woman will give you cold shoulder, hot tongue, whirlwind family/divorce court, free state accomadations when can not meet expectations. Why bother, live free and happy. MGTOW
If american women were Japanese/asian there would be more weddings and less divorce. American women have become abortion sluts and gold diggers, appoligies to the one good american women left.
i call them Men with tits
The last few dates I ever went on with Murkin women were all the same... I felt like I was on a job interview during the first 15 minutes... After that, I lost interest as they were only interested in my net worth... After a while, I began to turn the tables on these wenches and ask them pointed questions, like, do you take it up the poop chute, how many men have you screwed in the last year and the best one, what is you total credit card balance... Always fun to turn the tables, for shock value if nothing less...
How's this one, 1st meeting she said this -a guy she saw sent a pick of his dick and was turned off, So this cunt goes do you have a big dick and i said - no why do you have a big pussy, that fucked her, fucked it that night and in the morning the cunt goes- most guys want more in the morning. Not from you BITCHTITS. Bagim and tagim oh and stupid cunt said i like you because you have money. Crazy bitches.
Announcing my new National Start Up.
PYD aka Peddle Your Daughter.
Yes, parents, I'm offering you a chance to get your daughter 'out there', in the world, turning a buck on her own, without your total financial support and backing. And, better yet, for each night your daughter is away from home, I'm offering YOU $10!
Your daughter will be socially rotated until she meets the man of her dreams and settles down. It may be the nice, clean cut, kid down the street, or she may be the fourth wife of a german immigrant living in a shed with twenty four kids of others to take care of; but YOU get $10 a every night!!!
As an added bonus, if your daughter is white with blonde hair, you'll get a BONUS $2 extra per NIGHT!!
And if she has blue eyes, that's a whole 'nother dollar...that's $13 a NIGHT to get that useless bitch of a daughter out of your basement and into the real world.
Act now, categories are filling up fast due to the expansion of the European influx of migrants. Demand won't last much beyond 2215, so hurry!!
White blue eyed blondes are worth far more than a 30% premium over some sbhitskin skank
Obama said that if you like your sons you can keep it.
"puzzling considering the improved state of the economy"
WTF are they smoking?
C R A C K....
lased with Meth and PCP....
That nasty ginger bitch from Mizzou just got added to the list. Fortunately for her, the chances that her parents are going to commit suicide and leave the house to her increased exponentially for the same reason.
Trigger Warning! I feel micro-agressed against. Where is my safe space?
The only safe space I can think of on this planet is under six feet of earth. Until they build a highway through it.
Well, Melissa Click keeps her head up her ass so I assume that's a safe place for her.
Fuck you, fuck your family, your useless in society and should be shot on sight.
There, feel better? That's called Macro-Agression, bitch.
Sleep tight.
Hey, can we get some muscle over here?
Wow, that sounds a little right-wing for you. You moving to the dark side, Rand?
Maybe they took Fred Thompson's advice and reverse mortgaged it already?!
ONly an idiot would get married. MGTOW.com
Most are in the US and then they wake up
Only they wake up too late.
WTF? Who has the handle on vibrator and dildos market?
There's plenty of Japanese girls for the taking.
Not sure about dildos, but I hear the vibrator market is really humming.
Long- AA Batteries
Vibrators take C batteries.
I know this because I have had to buy them for mrs_horseman, heavy duty.
She puts them in the horses' grain feeders, to get them accustomed to the buzzing sound, so that she can clip their faces.
That is her story, at least, and she is sticking with it.
Now I know why the dames spend so much time with the horses.
I just thought they got a kick out of an 18" hard on.
Either that or the constant bouncing up and down while riding exercises little ole Dr. Clit.
18" ????
You have not seen a horse's dick, have you?
Try double that number.
He was talking about a Japanese horse.
Probably a miniture horse, a Japanese miniture horse.
LOL!!
Not that I noticed, but I was a ranch kid long, long ago.
For you city fellers, a horse dick less than three feet is considered 'short'. Horses and bulls have this unique ability to leave a fifth trail in the dirt (the bulls, admittedly, much deeper in the dirt).
A horse with a hard on is an awesome thing to view...and totally demoralizing to us men. There is NO comparison.
We say my Uncle was hung like a horse, but that was in relative terms.
Yeah because changing batteries is so much easier than just plugging in the same electric clippers and leaving them in the feeders.
That will prove to be quite a shock when the horse bites the cord. Plus, those clippers are more than $100, expensive, when the horse destroys it in about two minutes.
Those vibrating dildos are amazingly durable, built to take a real pounding, so to speak, and relatively cheap.
So.... the horses are afraid of the snip snip? Is that it?
batteries don't quite have the power. go for wall receptacle or gas powered
Go ahead and put 220 on the money, honey.

Buy her a Hitachi magic wand, but only never let her use it on her own. Orgasm every time, and with you there, it will increase pair bonding like nothing else. But if she starts using it on her own, you're fucked. Figuratively, of course. You won't be literally very much if at all.
Real women take D batteries.
Obese women take those lantern batteries.
For a second there, I thought Hedgeless had married a dentata
Budapah! (Sound of cymbals crashing)...lol.
That was funny, and required an I/Q over Special financialOlympics CNBS.
I have a fan. Kudos to the person holding the fire escape door.
I had my own remoras recently so I feel your down arrow pain. Not to suggest I don't get down arrowed for legitimate reasons too. Some mornings I wake up and check ZH, and down arrow myself.
There's been a recent outbreak of negative stalkers, I've noticed. I'm beginning to suspect it's coordinated, might even be a campaign to try to undermine the longer term, high SNR commenters.
Yen, just how open to US men are Japanese women? I came to my senses a few years ago and stopped trying here.
Some people get their own personal stalker for whatever reason.
I have one and am 90% sure I know who it is.
He's a fool who's a tool that I hammered a number of times.
Now I will see my own comment with a Red arrow from time to time where there is no reason why someone would give one.
I could say "the night is dark"and this tool would down arrow that.
Rand can easily pick up Reds here on some topics. He leans to the statist side on some issue.
I've noticed that an anti gov. or Jew comment will attract the most down votes between 12pm-5pm EST, Mon.-Fri. No need to explain, I hope.
You know, there really are quite a few beautiful Japanese women. I remember walking around in the train station in Gotemba thinking, "Shes the most beautiful woman here! No! She's the most beautiful woman I've seen here! No! She's the most beautiful woman I've seen here......". There were lots of very attractive women. But, you also run the risk of your Japanese girlfriend dressing up like Strawberry Shortcake from time to time.

And this is a problem because...?
I didn't mean to imply that was necessarily a "problem" per se, but just a peculiarity one could encounter.
Totally okay with cosplay.
The ladies should get good jobs like Bristol Palin.
Is there a correlation between the substance contained in the post and that only 1 in 10 females between 20-35 can cook for toffee?
Passion may fade, but cooking lasts.
So far, I've been a better cook than any ex I've had, save my Naga ex. She could cook amazingly well. Watching her cook, is how I learned to cook.
My ex-wife being chastised by her Vietnamese mother because I could cook better didn't really help the marriage much. Not that the marriage really needed any additional help falling apart anyways.
I figured out quickly that if I wanted to eat well, I'd have to learn to cook my own meals
I have a Southerner wife.
NEVER look directly into the pot. NEVER ask what's for dinner.
The side plate is for buckshot/shells/bits you can't chew.
Sometimes it's disgusting, sometimes it's awesome, usually it's 'meh'.
I'm not a picky eater. As long as she holds still I'm game.
University enrollement is AT LEAST 60% female. Personally, I believe it is much higher.
Now, who do you think holds the majority of student loan debt? Women.
Now if you marry one of these broads, her debts become your debts. Why the fuck would any guy do that?
It's already gotten to the point that before you get married, you should request a credit check on your soon to be spouse so that you get a full picture of what you could be dealing with.
Not to mention the nazi feminism that's prevalent in western society, it's just not worth marrying any one of these broads.
Best to just bang them. Much simplier.
and yes..................I am a MGTOW card carrying member.
Where's marrying for love bro, for better or worse?
I insist on a Credit Check; an STD/Aids Clean Bill and a recent naked photo of the Mum-In-Law.
Mum-in-Law
Good point, most girls turn into their mothers after a few years. You might as well find out what she'll look like.
I had this idea were we should have a company like www.bitchfax.com and you can get all the information at your fingertips before getting hitched. We could have a scorecard factoring credit score, how many dicks she rode, STDs, kids, divorced and complains from other lovers. Wouldn't it be sweet?
Wonder his many hours the site would be up before the SJWs and feminists got it banned in every Western nation and had the creators arrested?
Just because you marry someone doesn't mean that their debt becomes your debt unless you're stupid enough to co-sign anything with s/he/it.
The real problem with marriage is that the partner thinks your money is their money and that's when the real shit starts to fly.
Ah, I see you have little experience in this area. I guarantee her creditors can and will be calling you for her debts, and can (depending on where you reside) make you liable for them. Read more on it here:

Only a fool would marry american women
They seem to be a rather needy and entitled lot. Even the older ones.
They wanted this. They got it.
"They wanted this. They got it."
Bingo.
Maybe feminist aren't as smart as they seem.
It takes a real wuss to marry an American woman and to make her happiness your only priority.
My wife is a non-American Latina. Traditional and a great mother. The rest of her family are fucking idiots...but then so again so is mine.
So Philo you must be the black sheep in your family!
I am going to make my wife have an anchor baby in Latin America.
Papi? Papi, is that you? ;-)
My sister in law is known in my family as the Columbian Cunt. We might be in laws
Why would a woman want to marry a knuckle dragging neanderthal male anyways, when they can have a kind & sensitive Rosie O'Donnell or Caitlyn Jenner? ;-)
Terminal gene pool. I'm all for it.
You just named off couple of dudes.....both more masculine than Obama, even if they wear panties.
Well......depending upon how much money the woman has its the easiest way to get children, then an alimony check along with child support.
If they already have money then the sperm bank is a woman's best friend next to her vibrator.
Even sperm bank donors get hit up for child support..
Don't forget Tyquavious and Mohammed and mabye a little Jose too.
The people who think getting married will make them happy seem exactly the same as people who think buying lottery tickets will make them rich.
But, winning a big lottery will make me rich and happy cause now I can afford a stable of honey whores.
" think buying lottery tickets will make them rich."
Sadly, the odds are better winning the lottery.
By the way megamillion is over 200 million. lol
If liberated women don't want to perform the functions of a traditioal wife, what do they bring to the table?
If it wasn't for pussy, men would have hunted women to extinction a long time ago.
All the more reason prostiution should be legalized.
Not only is it not being legalized, it's being redefined as "sex trafficking" and they're using civil asset forfeiture to take the john's cars/homes.
You'd think there'd be a workaround with sex toys for men, but ... nope, they want sex robots made illegal too!
I hope the pussy cartel fares as well as OPEC is these days. Jesus. You'd have to be insane to try breeding in western civilization.
All the more reason to unplug, and add lube to the survival supplies.
Next thing you know they will ban gym socks.
Thanks for reminding me of this;

"You'd think there'd be a workaround with sex toys for men, but ... nope, they want sex robots made illegal too!"
That's probably for the best. If Microsoft provided the robot's software, it would probably shred Mr. Happy.
And, everytime you tried to "turn her on" you'd get the blue screen of death.
I'd be more worried about the viruses with a microsoft sex robot.
From what I have heard it is mostly American woman. European women do not go to college for "Gender Studies" classes.
Prostitution IS legal here in Germany and you can go fuck an 8, 9, or 10 any time day or night for 30 to 50 euro. I'm talking insane cheerleader of your dream types, 18 to 22 years old. Just smoking hot Romanian and other girls of all varieties.
That said, I don't personally like prostitutes because I loath condoms. I'd rather jack it than use a condom with a 9/10 chick. Cheaper and more enjoyable.
Their PhD in old English, anthropology, women's studies, or whatever bullshit they want to use as their excuse for not working.

Most of them look butch these days. No way no American Women, too full of themselves. All the talk and gossips .
Wait till you get up into your 50's and 60's. All just disgusting land whales. And, by then their dog has replaced the need for male companionship. They only want you around so they'll have someone to bitch at and blame for all their problems.
Third wave feminism and the over pedestalization/coddling of women in the media, universities, workplace, and court system has made most of them unbearable and dangerous to deal with. No thanks to TV families like the Kardashians and "Real Housewives of who gives a fuck", Western culture can continue to expect an inexhaustable supply of spoiled, entitled, pampered women with princess complex.
Never been married, always very cautious, and have met plenty of these entitled women cum princess types. Far too much man hating, man bashing, childish and immature behavior galore. However, to be fair many women just like men in our culture have not grown up. Both are shitty with money, shitty in character, and have little drive and determination and love playing the victim. I have had at least 3 male friends over the last 10 years act like fucking egotistical shitwads, and I said fuck off to all of them. The women seem to want something for nothing and the ones I have been with seem to complain about the smallest fucking things endlessly. It kills me how much petty and superficial griping can come out of more and more women's mouths lately. I wouldn't want anyone around me carrying on like this much less a mate I would like to provide and care for.
"Your honor, I don't pay women for sex, I pay them to leave"

Rumor has it, Charlie's games have caught up with him.
Yes, that is the word. But it would not be from hetro sex. (Extreme difficult for a man to get it from hetro sex.) It has to have been from gay sex (I doubt it) or something like a dirty needle. You know, needs another booster fix but does not have a clean needle with him so he used what was there.
Denise Richards is her own head case but by all accounts she put out plenty for him and was no prude about it. Had a lot and he just had to search for the edge of a cliff and try to walk it. People determined to mess up their life.
Maybe he fucked a tiger in the ass.
maybe the tiger fucked him in the ass. he ran up a 60k hooker bill with heidi fleis according to court records
His drug use is killing him, I'm sure. Still, HIV is not AIDS. That's another scam perpetrated to separate us from our tax dollars. I'm willing to bet there are millions carrying HIV w/o knowing it. Something else will eventually kill them.
In other news, there's a record deficit of women worth marrying in the US, and a record surplus of men realizing they put their life's earnings at risk by getting married, and increasingly, just by having sex with or even being the same room alone with a woman in the US.
^This
America is going the way of the Japanese herbivore man, and there is nothing that can be done to stop it. Social media has given women the most mammoth inflated egos, the genie is out of the bottle and it won't be going back in anytime soon.
If I wanted to lose my house, my car, and half of everything I've ever worked for I could just go to Vegas & have a bash.
And yet, even Vegas won't steal your kids.
Seek, Japanese ladies come in vintages: Pre-1985 are golden. Most everything after is an IPhone-addicted, narcissistic, shopoholic kindergartner in an adult body. Still, if you want to marry a Japanese, get a country girl from a good family.
The future ex - Mrs are living in basements? Got it. Will start bar trolling with a dehumidifier and report back.
