Mating and Education

Scott discusses the shifting dynamics of mating preferences, highlighting how women are increasingly seeking partners who match or exceed their economic status, while men face a shrinking pool of viable mates. He emphasizes the informal affirmative action taking place for young men in college admissions, pointing out the underrepresentation of white men from red states. Instead of pitting groups against each other, he advocates for expanding opportunities across the board to create a more inclusive educational landscape.
