Today, Americans enjoy a higher quality of life than at any other period in our nation's history. We out earn, out live, out eat, and outspend any of our American predecessors. We also are far more educated than at any other time in American history. Yet, while earnings,education, home ownership and other quality of life metrics are at an all-time high, marriagerates are steadily and significantly declining and population divorce rates are at epidemic levels.

Fifty years ago, over 70% of all adults in America were married. Today only 50% of adults aremarried. In 1960, 68% of all twenty- something's were married. Today, 26% are married. For African Americans the numbers are direr. In 1960, 62% of African American Women were married.

Today, less than 36% are married. For White Women the decline is less stark (66% to 57%). Also, 53.7% of African Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 had never been married. The percentage of never married African American Women has jumped from 20.7% fifty years ago to almost half today. What we're seeing today is that fewer of us are getting married, more of us are getting divorced and more of us are choosing to hold off on marriage until after we obtain degrees and establish our careers.

For African Americans, the same trends apply except more women are choosing to have children outside of wedlock which not only recreates a cycle, but, also creates a slew of new issues around disenfranchisement. Given that family is the basis of all healthy and progressive civilizations, the book walks us through and explores the relationship options and their resultant awards women face today Options is a relationship book that not only explores the issues facing women today around finding and keeping a meaningful relationship in an age when the odds are stacked against her,but also the efficacy of a multitude of choices both being considered and ignored.

People are getting married less today than at any other period in recorded history.African American Women are leading the pack of the unmarried.
