Deja vu. Was it early nineties? Late 1980s? when they came out with the "an unmarried woman over 35 is more likely to be struck by lightning than find a husband" or whatever trumped up statistics/pseudo-science was their purported basis for the "women gotta settle" message that time.
Ties right in with the Repuke/MRA/incel mindset of "we've got to limit women's options to access good education/careers and control their bodies so that they'll be forced to tie themselves via marriage to low-quality men like us"
