Do you think this statement about men is true?

My partner has a lot of friends, several of them are men over 30, however a few of them are single and don't seem to have any desire to get married/have children. They're still very much into the going out drinking lifestyle. I asked my partner if he ever saw them doing that, and he said that's just the 'city lifestyle ', to do these things a lot later/be less likely to. We aren't in London, but in another large city.
Does anybody find this? Equally I know several men who were married with a child before 30, so it's not necessarily representative.

City Life, much like the female version of’Soft Life’, is a load of gobshite.

Yes, there are many, men and women alike, who live according to social media trends; but in real life I know little to no one who actually practice these things.

Most men around me are responsible folks who don’t feel the need to enjoy a drinking lifestyle. This includes my 19 - 32 year old nephews.
