Sartoris22:

In a previous post, I  reveal my nationality, American, and cite exampes of the many non-academic unmarried males in the novels. Even if one excludes the teachers, there are a considerable number of seemingly unpartnered people, particularly males, in the books. I cited the example of Sirius, a man who has been in prison over ten years but doesn't seem compelled or pressured to get a woman.
