BBC News - Latvian man shortage leaves women lost for love

Latvian man shortage leaves women lost for love

Two decades after Latvia shook off Soviet communist rule, the country's women have survived the transition to capitalism better than men - they are better educated and are less likely to die young. But a high male mortality rate means for many women, it is hard to find a partner.
