Thanks,
I don't see any clear difference whats happening in USA, China or India, they are same.
The quantum of the problem that nobody's talking, to be precise, refuse to talk, is that of women's attitude.

In India,
In New Delhi, Women Marry Up and Men Are Left Behind - NYTimes.com
The article also speak of women be left behind also.
Take the case from my town, there are women in Bangalore who are aged 28,29,30,31 who are very good both in Education and pay wise. But they insist the partner to be equal and better than them.
What women fail to accept is that, there many many good men and very less men of their expectations, The man of her dreams is happily 'married down' and settled happily.
Please be clear, I'm writing this post from bachelor point of view.
