As cliche as this sounds, commercialism/materialism is what I largely attribute it to, despite earning less than their male counterparts it's still more than the alternative.

Edit:
I just finished a 1hr lesson with a group of 4 women, they said they prefer to get married later because they want to move back into their parents house after uni (or stay there) so they don't have to start cooking and doing housework every day, and also because they want to enjoy their life before they have a kid by shopping and going on trips abroad.
