If it becomes hard, factual reality that there is an increasing women-men ratio, lets say it becomes 10 women for 1 man in a certain community ... and it doesn't mean 10 eligible women for one eligible bachelor, but like 10 moms / daughters / sisters / cousins / unmarried girls, etc .... essentially if the situation becomes such that unmarried women / divorcees / widows are having a hard time finding men to marry ...
If a nuclear bomb landed on a giant international man convention in the desert somewhere? In any case, 6 out of those ten would be SOL.

Maybe find a guy from China... they're having a bit of a guy surplus these days.
