Following on, in a way, from last week?s look at wanting a boyfriend or girlfriend, this week goo Research published a survey looking at what caused people to start sweating about marriage.
Demographics
From the 5th to the 7th of September 2012 1,006 members of the goo Research monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 53.4% of the sample were female, 10.5% in their teens, 13.7% in their twenties, 26.6% in their thirties, 27.6% in their forties, 11.7% in their fifties, and 9.9% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.
Oh, let?s recycle last week?s image for this week?s survey ? having a friend comment on it might be a spur towards being more active in partner-seeking activities!
Note that answer 11 might seem a bit odd, but I suspect it was a female-only answer, as in Japan women do tend to quit their careers when they either get married or have kids.
