Overall, marriage rates went down, the all time lowest since 2003, and divorce rates went up.
1. [+9,955, -364] It's not that we're refusing to get married, it's that we can't.
2. [+8,559, -294] Who would want to get married in such an environment?
3. [+8,120, -274] It's not that we don't want to, it's that we can't! Can't, can't, can't!
4. [+6,490, -148] Because it gets harder when you get married..
5. [+5,468, -239] Marriage is only the best during the moment of your wedding
6. [+1,995, -137] Even our president isn't married
7. [+1,806, -76] Finding a mate and having children is a basic human instinct.. just how hard is the world to live in that people are repressing their instincts... Lower the cost of housing and raise employment, people will naturally start to get married and have kids again..
8. [+1,737, -50] Best not to get married if you don't have money. It's just suffering for the both of you after that point.
9. [+1,619, -56] Cost of housing is too high. Can't get married until you find a place to live so of course everything else falls behind like birth rates, etc.
10. [+1,437, -55] It's too hard for a man to save enough to buy a place to get married and live in by his thirties without the help of his parents anymore ㅠ
