I was shocked when friends of mine, a happily married couple who are HOMESCHOOLING their grandchildren, both with advanced college degrees ( a Masters and a Doctorate) and as WOKE as one can get, decided it would be appropriate to teach their granddaughters the card game OLD MAID. The object of this classic card game is to not be the one "left out" so it teaches the "normality" of marriage and basically enforces OUT DATED NOTIONS THAT IT IS UNDESIREABLE TO BE UNMARRIED, especially if you are a female. I was so stunned I blurted, "Don't be POLITICALLY INCORRECT. Be sure to teach them OLD BACHELOR!"
Really, there is no reason anyone should be teaching their children, whatever gender, that if you don't marry you're a looser.
By the way, this couple have one of the best marriages I've ever known of.
