Foi identificado claramente que o desemprego aumentou as chances dos homens jovens brasileiros permanecerem solteiros. Indivíduos entre 18 e 30 anos, no Brasil, sofrem as influências negativas do desemprego, tornando-os menos casáveis, tendência observada nos dois períodos analisados.
Os resultados apurados têm comportamento semelhante aos obtidos para o Reino Unido, por exemplo, porém revelam que o grau das probabilidades médias dos estados civil e de emprego apresenta diferenças, provavelmente em razão da grande desigualdade existente entre as estruturas de bem-estar fornecidas ao homem desempregado brasileiro, em relação àquelas vigentes em outros países.
É evidente que nem todas as desigualdades existentes entre os homens da amostra, em razão das diferenças nas suas probabilidades de ser casados, viriam somente do desemprego. O fator desocupação causado pelo desemprego, geralmente retirando do homem sua capacidade de exercer a liderança no provimento financeiro da família, é que se torna um centro gerador de preocupação. Parece haver um sentido de complementaridade entre trabalho e família para o homem: um (trabalho) fornece a base para o surgimento do outro (família). Ademais, na linha do mesmo raciocínio, criar estruturas sócio-econômicas sustentáveis que propiciem empregos estáveis, gera um processo sinérgico de inserção do homem na sociedade produtiva, facilitando o combate às patologias sociais, tão comuns no nosso tempo.
