I'm undecided about whether or not this is a good change. Sure, there is less chance for poor women to get a free lift, but this also may mean that women feel pressured to attend colleges and get corporate jobs just so they can land a high status man.

...just more choosy. It is just a mirage of their own high status.
The more women who are at college to bag a high status man, the more warped their definition of high status become.
'High status' men becomes high status relative not just to other men but to themselves and other women, dramatically altering the women's perceptions of marriageability.
Despite what they would like to believe, this is not because they are strong and independent ladies, but because they derive their self-worth and social worth from the status of the man they can attract.
