Wow..and the hypocrisy is probably totally lost on the writers.

Meanwhile, it seems that the DL community will be facing a Shidduch crisis (that no one is really talking about yet), because of all the DL men who have been injured and killed in the war. Many of the physically injured will of course be able to establish families, but those with brain injuries or the many with PTSD may be left unmarriageable, a further tragedy for them, and for the many women who will be left without a Shidduch (not to speak of the war widows, and the divorces resulting from the stresses of hundreds of days of miluim). These issues are of course totally invisible to the Hareidi world.

Starting to date at a random, arbitrary age is no guarantee of marriage. I have many friends who are still single in their 40s and some have been dating since 19, some since 20, some since 21.
