Women's discontent with marriage is not new; it just became more obvious because the availability of both birth control and abortion freed women to express their discontent by either not marrying or not remarrying.
Recently the number of women who are choosing not to marry has reached a level that is alarming to those who become anxious when the power of traditional hierarchies weakens.
The only way to have a satisfying marriage is for both partners to want to be in it.
Mr. Kristof is right to emphasize the need for men and marriage to change, not for women to lose the ability to choose what kind of life they want.
