Higher percentage of men and women in recent birth cohorts have ever divorced.
Because people born in a short, specified period of time (a birth cohort) experience similar historical circumstances as they move through the life cycle, it is useful to compare the marital patterns of different birth cohorts to track trends over time. There have been delays in Marriage as well as increases in divorce during the time period covered in this report which starts with the 1925 to 1934 birth cohort who formed the forefront of adults who parented the post-war baby boom of 1946 to 1964.6 In Table 1, the 1945 to 1954 and 1955 to 1964 cohorts encompass the baby boom.
Since the youngest of the 1955 to 1964 birth cohort were age 32 in 1996, and most first Marriages happen before age 30,7 this cohort is the most recent available cohort where delays in Marriage are examined. The proportion of men ever married by age 25 dropped from 68 percent for the 1925 to 1934 birth cohort to 49 percent for the 1955 to 1964 birth cohort. For women the corresponding decline was from 84 percent to 63 percent.
There were also pronounced declines in the proportions ever married by age 30 from the 1925 to 1934 birth cohort to the 1955 to 1964 birth cohort: from 85 percent to 69 percent for men and from 92 percent to 79 percent for women. While more men and women are delaying Marriage, most will probably marry. Some members of the 1955 to 1964 cohort have yet to live through the ages in which many divorces and reMarriages occur, so comparisons of divorce and reMarriage are Limited to the early baby boom cohort (1945 to 1954). By age 40, only about 15 percent of men and women born from 1925 to 1934 had been divorced, while among those born from 1945 to 1954, 31 percent of men and 34 percent of women had been divorced.
The rise in divorce also means that a higher percentage of people in more recent cohorts were able to marry twice during their lives. For example, the percentage of men age 40 who have been married twice rose from 11 percent for those born from 1925 to 1934 to 22 percent for men born from 1945 to 1954. The corresponding increase for women married twice by age 40 was from 12 percent and 23 percent. This change coincides with changes in divorce where the proportions ever divorced in the 1945 to 1954 birth cohort were double the corresponding proportions in the 1925 to 1934 birth cohort for both men and women.
