In an article last year in The Chronicle of Higher Education, Mr. Hacker noted that in 1970, 62 per cent of married American males with BAs had more education than their wives. "Today, the reverse in increasingly the case. According to the latest Census count, among married women ages 25 to 34 who have a bachelor's degree, 39 per cent have husbands who haven't gotten that far."

If things don't change, university-educated women will increasingly be unable to find men who share their interest in such things as classical music, live theatre, art exhibits and high-end TV like Masterpiece Theatre, says Mr. Hacker. Audience surveys show that many women attend such events alone or with female friends, he writes. "Perhaps that was ever so. But are college women increasingly going to have to settle for less in their relationships?"

A corollary effect is that men who lack higher education may increasingly have trouble finding a compatible woman, says Mr. Hacker. "I think that a lot of men are discovering -- and this is in all classes, including the blue-collar项圈 — a band worn around the neck class -- that women are not as submissive顺从 — willing to obey and subordinate as these guys have been led to expect."
