Nov. 14 (UPI) -- Girls who are high school seniors for the first time are less likely to marry than boys of the same age, according to the Pew Research Center.
The Pew Research Center partnered with the University of Michigan to poll high school seniors in 2023 and on Friday announced that two-thirds said they likely will get married.
Boys, though, were more likely to get married than girls, with 74% of boys saying so versus 61% of girls.
The change represents the first time that more boys than girls looked favorably upon marriage in the future, according to Pew.
