If most women are optimising unemployed men out of dating / marriage then men being unemployed has far more significant consequences for men than women. Women are all about equality for access to employment but then complain that there aren't enough suitable men with jobs. The more a woman earns the smaller her dating pool becomes. Perhaps she could be more flexible in partner selection? There are outliers but the data suggests women are very traditional in very particular ways. Whereas the situation for men has been to marry down. But no such expectation for women. Its an interesting little bit of hypocracy.

There's a heap of complexity around this. Society needs to shift and work this out. Its only been around a century. The answers are not so simple.
