    It's weird that it's so geographic. Is something pulling young women east? Or something pulling young men west?

    The article is from 2008, and seems to be based on data from 2005. The article discusses absolute differences in population, where the relevant statistic would be the ratio. After all, that’s the likelihood that you would meet someone of the appropriate sex. Finally, there is no controlling for age.
