Hmm. Maybe cause this graph ends in 2010, but I could have sworn I read marriage is in an upswing here in The States. Or I might be remembering it wrong. Maybe divorce is on the down swing? Random Wikipedia graph shows both are on a down swing, but that ends in 2007. Maybe people are being more cautious about marriage.

First image link, "percent of men ever married 2017"

When I was born, that number was 3%. When I got married, that number was 20%.
