There aren't the same number of men and women out there. There are a lot more older women than older men.
That said, I don't see why the definition of "single" makes a difference to you, unless your concern was that we're going to have a catastrophic shortage of women in 50 years. Women may simply marry earlier in life, but you're still just as screwed if you're a young guy (Or not, as the case may be.)

I find this almost more valuable for the list of caveats to the data than the viz itself.
It's really nice to see them break down why it seems to skew so male at the younger ages, as opposed to OH NO THERE ARE NO GIRLS.
P.S.: Oh no, there are no girls! =)

Now I've got stats to back up my failures. I don't know if that's a good thing or not...
I'd seen this before, but not with the age being adjustable. I see that the male to female ratio is significantly worse for my location, sexual preference, and age range than it was just for the first two.
Summary: Springfield, MA is where it's at.
Today's Dilbert is on the same subject:

"Single is counted as being never married, divorced or widowed."
Aha. So this is ACTUALLY a map of when people first marry, and females tend to uniformly marry [and divorce] earlier, versus men who sometimes wait until later. Thank goodness, the map was really starting to worry me.
