what happened in USA?

51% women in US living without spouse. can you imagine?
very interesting and investigative matters. for the first time more Americans ladies are living a husband than with one,says sociologists,according to a new york times analysis of census results
In 2005 ,51% of women said they were living without spouse ,up from 35% in 1995 and 49% in 2000.coupled with the fact that in 2005 married couples became a minority of all American house holds for the first time ,the trend could ultimately shape social and workplace polices,including the ways government and employers distribute benefits.
the factors involved
-at the end of the age spectrum
-marrying later
-living with unmarried partners for long time
at the other end women are living longer as widows and after a divorce, are more likely than men to delay remarriage.
moreover only 30% of black women are living with spouse compared with about 49% of Hispanic women.
