bachelordom

/ˈbætʃəɫɝdəm/ noun

The state of a male who is a bachelor, i.e. unwed.

Word Origin Bachelordom is the state of being a bachelor, using the suffix -dom (like kingdom, freedom). Bachelor comes from Medieval Latin baccalarius, which could mean a young knight, a student, or a farm worker. The -dom suffix is from Proto-Germanic *dōmaz 'judgment, state,' related to doom and deem. So bachelordom is literally 'the condition of bachelorhood.'
