The former East Germany is being drained of young women, leaving an underclass of disillusioned young men behind, a study says.
Disillusioned is a strange way of putting it, but okay.
What this new report by the Institute for Population and Development establishes, is that young women have been leaving in much greater numbers than young men – and that of the men who did leave, many returned.
The result is that in many towns in eastern Germany, the report says, there are simply not enough women to go round.
This lack of female company only adds to the frustrations of often jobless young men, making them easy prey for neo-Nazi groups looking for recruits.
The report suggests that the reason young east German women are more inclined to “go west” and stay there is that they tend to be better educated. And it says the male-female imbalance in the east is already leading to a fall in the birth rate in that part of Germany.
Jobless is an interesting way of putting it, too.
So it’s all right to attribute Naziism to sexual frustration, but it’s just not right to say that it might be a root cause of Islamist fundamentalism?
On the other hand, the study says nothing about the practice of converting women into men for athletic competition in the old days, so I’m not sure how comprehensive it could be. Maybe it’s time for an East Berlin Airlift.
well this “imbalance” is now showing its face everywhere. The last sensus about this part of world also showed same trends and i guess this leads us to ”Greater Global Challenge”
Uh, “Love Missile,” you might get more people to click on yer links if you were actually posting something relevant, rather than just spamming comments.
He’s as bad as that internet radio dude.
Hey Sean ..Not just spamming but getting people to see something ..produced to the zenith of perfection at a place once called heaven now turned to a hell
Every time a German girl crosses her legs a neo-nazi gets his wings.

Yeah, I hear you, LM
Trenton, New Jersey ain’t what it used to be.

I think most of us know about the tragedy of Kashmir. These interjections may be well intentioned but they are likely to have the opposite effect to that sought. I would suggest finding another method of making your point.
Back On Topic, and while I’m on my feet, Dan- I would just like to point out that if these unreconstructed Osties do revert to Nazism because the female of the species would rather emigrate than cohabit, it will be All Your Fault.
Thank you.
From where I sit, at little league picture day, the reason all thos women are migrating west is due to the gravitational pull of the extrordinarily handsome Cookies boys.
Oh yeah, Kashmir? Totally my fault.
You know, I was thinking of visiting Kashmir but now I’ve changed my mind.
Why is Robert Plant screeching in my mind? Oh, yeah…
I guess I can scratch off East Germany from my list of vacation destinations.
Why can’t it be all right to attribute Communism to sexual frustration? I mean, after all, Communism succeeded in killing far more people than Naziism.
Enough about the shortage, what I want to know is where is the corresponding surplus manifesting itself?
Macau
I thought East Germany’s woman shortage was on their Olympic teams.
A consortium of Catholic universities and colleges in the great state of Indiana. We spirited them away in the night…
…and we’re not giving them back!
Women in the eastern parts of Europe disappearing?
I blame Dracula.
Wow, you mean women don’t want to live in dreary, broken-down, ex-Communist East Germany, they’d rather live somewhere where they’ve gotten around to building working toilets? And they don’t want to live with sad-sack, apt to be “drawn in to” neo-Nazism men who just can’t seem to break free of the place? Die of shock.
