Counterexample

In an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education (behind a paywall, alas), Richard Whitmire produces anecdotal evidence to suggest that shifting gender ratios in colleges are producing a shortage of male undergraduates, resulting in heightened competition among female undergraduates who wish to date them. The men have, on the whole, reacted to this situation by behaving like cads.

I would like to balance out this claim, which has not yet been empirically verified. In the long nuclear winter which was my romantic life as an undergraduate at Yale, my situation would not have been materially improved had I been the LAST MAN ON EARTH.

It is completely out of character for me to say this, but thank God for graduate school.
