Everywhere around us, it seems that being “coupled up” is the norm, but the population of single people continues to increase. In fact, research shows that by 2030, 25% of adults between the ages of 45 and 54 will never marry. Yet songs, movies, books, our parents, and society as a whole tells us that we’re “incomplete” without a partner.
There are a lot of books out there designed to show women how to be single. How to Be a Happy Bachelor represents a tool men can use to “do singlehood right” in a world that can be judgmental against the non-coupled. It discusses how to think critically about society’s perceptions of marriage, how to overcome your stigma and fear of being alone, and even how to respond to society’s judgments like a pro so that you can live a full, happy life, whether single or coupled up.
Craig Wynne, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of English at the University of the District of Columbia and an expert on societal perceptions of singlehood and marriage. He has published in publications such as Teaching English in the Two-Year College, Journal of American Culture, Spark: a 4C4 Equality Journal, and Revista Feminismos. His work has also been featured in Singular Magazine. Wynne lives in Washington, DC with his cat, Chester. Visit his website at www.thehappybachelor.org.
