I knew you would say this, and in fact I was waiting for you to say this, so I could say:

In Islam, the imperative is for a woman to be supported and cared for. A woman needs to get married, so she can have a mahrem, who becomes the maintainer and protector. Meanwhile, a man does not have this need or necessity. Therefore, if there are some unmatched men, then that is ok. But unmatched women is not a good thing, because they need mehrems, whereas men do not have that need.

And I'm gonna take a shot in the dark here, but I'll bet there are probably a lot of girls who'd rather take their chances with a fornicator, poor, sinful dude than be number two or three of a rich and powerful pious dude. Or just stay single.
Yes, but this is just due to cultural influences and brainwashing by the Western forces of kufr.
