jan 1, 1950 - U.S. Marriage Rate Skyrocketed

Description:

In the 1950s, when Cinderella dazzled viewers by finding her prince charming, women felt a lot of pressure to get married. It’s what was expected, it was normal to get married right after high school. As a matter of fact,
the U.S. marriage rate was at an all-time high and men and women were getting married younger than ever before.
