NATIONAL SINGLES WEEK AIMS TO GAIN RESPECT FOR SINGLES
"Singles are the Rodney Dangerfields of our society," says Rich Gosse, Chairman of American Singles Education, Inc. "They can't get no respect.
/Dating - Singles PR News/ - SAN RAFAEL, CA, August 22, 2007 - "Singles are the victims of systematic discrimination," says Mr. Gosse, "particularly in the areas of Taxes, Insurance, Retirement Benefits, Employee Benefits, Housing, and Unemployment Benefits. That's why we are proud to be the official sponsor of National Singles Week, September 16-22, 2007, the only week dedicated to the recognition of the special contributions of all singles.
"The first National Singles Week was in 1982. The week has been declared by official proclamation of Governors throughout America, and is listed in Chase's Calendar of Events, a directory of such events for the country.
"Latest statistics reveal that there are 84 million single adults in America (43 million women and 41 million men)," says Mr. Gosse. "In its year 2000 figures, the U.S. Census Bureau reports that today 26% of households are a single person living alone, compared to just 13% in 1960. Single person households now outnumber so-called "traditional" households of a married couple with children at home, which now make up just 23.5% of households. Today for every married couple in the U.S. there are 1.5 singles.
Rich Gosse is America's foremost authority on the single lifestyle. He is the author of eight books on this subject, including Singles Guide to America, You CAN Hurry Love, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" - Oprah Winfrey). His expert advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNBC, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Cosmopolitan, Playboy, Playgirl, Business Week, The London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, and hundreds of other media outlets worldwide.
