And added social pressure if one doesn't eventually move forward (this would be applied to anyone not marrying). Granted, you can somewhat see this in the US but on a much less official level. I've personally noticed it as I have aged but haven't looked into marrying or having children. Employees who have been around even longer than I have mentioned that I'll be making it harder to move upward, though no one will every officially put that on paper.
