Something I don't think I've seen discussed: culture is set up to favor long-term singlehood/partner optionality, but societal infrastructure still advantages couples Health insurance for spouses, extra slack re: credit history if you have a partner cosign loans/leases, etc

The incentives are still there for families to be formed... maybe to act as a brake, slowing down the unavoidable cultural shift.

I feel like societal infrastructure in this example is the lagging indicator. I tried to argue against this idea but I couldn't come up with a way that poly people are less reliable than traditional couples

I guess the question is how long before there is a loan that preferences singles. Not sure if health insurance ever will given the devastating effects of loneliness
