Then give married men two votes. I don't think it though because women are ultimately in control of relationships not men. Most men would settle down if the right woman would have them. Modern data on this tells us all we need to know. As women gained economic power, relationships tanked yet when women actually cost men money to support, the number of single men was minimal.
Women pre suffrage already had a big influence of voting. Now the ones in relationships with weak men get 2 votes
Yup
I don't think you should give married men two votes. I think of democracy as a decision making mechanism. Married men aren't twice as good of decision makers as single men. As you pointed out, if other things were going well, most men would be married eventually, so you're talking about polling the same men -- just at different phases of life. And I don't see any reason to overweight the old.
