My guest today is Benjamin Goldman, Assistant Professor of economics at Cornell University. We spoke about his research on marriage: why non-college educated Americans have seen plummeting marriage rates over the last century, how sex ratios affect dating cultures, how male "left tail" phenomena like joblessness and incarceration are affecting the marriage market, and why Americans rarely marry outside of their class or ethnic group.
