They are not representative of the real-life social situations we face on an every day basis, as you say. The bottom line here is, I think those of us in the 24-28-year-old bracket are part of a large group of people nationally and worldwide all coming into this age group at the same time, e.g. the same way baby boomers are "all about to retire" we're "all about to face our quarter life crisises." Know what I mean? Well, those are just numbers. They are not representative of the real-life social situations we face on an every day basis, as you say.

Now, add ten years to that and a lot more dating, and then I'd say that there are more reasonable grounds to be concerned. But then, you get a lot more bitter and emotionally unavailable people due to the greater opportunity to date more co-dependent, overly emotional, selfish, name your peeve here people.
