#13 Same 'bitch' by women looking for a good man. After you go through all their 'requirements' and look at the available pool, you are usually down to single digit percentages of the male population. At least the women can settle for cats.

#14 At least the women can settle for cats.

And the military can settle for robot dogs carrying machine guns.
I am amused that while the article states the size of Gen Z and the available recruiting pool, it fails to mention the number of recruits needed. Journalists, bless their hearts!

Out of the entire male population of the world, I only needed one to meet my requirements for husband material, Procopius2k. Which I imagine is your point.
